sent to Australia, to Mr. Dean Wills (Distributor for Lamborghini Australia Back in 1996). Mr. Wills ordered the car on behalf of the purchaser Mr. Fitzgerald.
This latter had ordered every available option on it including the four piece luggage, full yellow dash dials, Yellow piping in the Black interior and also yellow strap inserts in the Black seats to complement the yellow exterior and also a 555 Factory BHP engine !
Only a year later the car was send back to Sant'Agata, were it could be admired during the 35th Anniversary festivities at the factory, enjoying some high speed runs on the Autostrada in Italy, this car covered 3500 Km in Europe, reaching speeds up to 285 Km/h. During it's stay at the factory the owner opted to have an air lift suspension system from a Diablo VT Roadster installed at the front to raise the car to clear speeds bumps and curb sides.
The current owner had been trying to buy this unique car for the past 3 years, and it was only because Mr. Fitzgerald has purchased a new ENZO Ferrari, the last Australian specs one by the way, and needed the space in his garage that he reluctantly sold him this unique car for AU$ 565,000.00, and to the best of his knowledge it was the first Diablo VTR that has changed hands in the world, today this RHD yellow Diablo VT-R edition is located in South Australia.
The 2004 value of the car was $565,000.00 and was still increasing as a true Lamborghini collectible piece before the Audi influence, and the only right hand drive Diablo VTR ever built by the factory..
