No Trailer Queen

Can't say I've seen this before.

Oughta be a kit car. If Mustangs dont have towbars a Lambo sure as hell wont. Lamborghini dont exactly make cars for the working class.

I've seen better looking trailers given away. I would have thought if they can afford that much for the car, then a little more for a new trailer should be ok. Or better still pass on the trailer & rent a ute several times a year for the same outlay. But really each to their own.

Very different! Where was this pic taken?

whitelion65 · 27-06-2016, 09:23 AM

Not a BAD photo chop, but the drawbar would have to be around two metres long!!

If that is a real lambo I wonder what sort of fitting is required for the Towbar $$$? I doubt there is many structural anchor points.
what a stupid thing to do

It is a photoshop :-)

FERG_51 · 27-06-2016, 02:16 PM

That trailer is a real barn find.

GSP07R · 27-06-2016, 03:35 PM

The trailer number plate is correct, shows up on rms site.

THIS PLACE does Lambo tow bars... cheaper than the ones for my Territory!

Nothing wrong with a structurally sound old trailer. I have replaced cars many times (last 4 new) but I still have my same one and only trailer that I bought second hand 30 years. Over time I have replaced the floor, wheel bearings, tyres, wiring and recently fitted LED lights.

Yep, Porsche 911 and Corvette have (had?) factory towbar options.
the Corvette manual had some strict instructions/warnings about launching boats and water depth/angle etc.

you'll find a few tow trailers from drag strip to drag strip stateside too.

They are universal fit - not Lambo specific. Not to mention those look pretty flimsy - i would be surprised if they pass our ADR.

Lambogan! Luxury sports car spotted towing trailer of goats in Western Sydney

DAVID MEDDOWS,
The Daily Telegraph

LAMBORGHINIS are a common enough sight these days on Sydney streets they hardly turn a head... unless of course you’re towing a trailer full of goats in your $250,000 beast.

Towing anything behind an iconic car that costs the same as a three bedroom home in some NSW cities, would be considered sacrilegious by some lovers of expensive chunks of metal.

This is not something you see everyday. Picture: YouTube / Joseph Criniti

The goats seemed to be completely content. Picture: YouTube / Joseph Criniti

The 2002 Lamborghini Murcielago was filmed by a highly amused passenger who spotted the silver DeLorean-looking car and its odd cargo near Liverpool before posting the video online.

Things looked weird enough with the luxury car towing a rusty metal contraption behind it, but when the video zooms into what was inside the trailer, the weirdness factor jumped to another level.

The 2002 Lamborghini Murcielago is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Picture: YouTube / Joseph Criniti

A number of perfectly happy goats were resting in the back as they made their way along the Hume Highway, oblivious to the fact their owners were living a life of luxury just metres ahead of their naturally air-conditioned box.

Heads were definitely turning for this Lambo, with drivers obviously distracted by the odd combination of goat and grandeur as it made its way through Western Sydney.

DO YOU KNOW THE OWNER OF THIS LAMBORGHINI FARM TRANSPORTER?

I've got to admit I thought it was shopped and the angle of the OP photo didn't help prove any different.

OK, I stand corrected!
Just the angle of the shot made the whole thing seem awkward.

This goats, by the way ;-)

Not photoshopped, you can see it in action here:

There are so many ethnic (lebo) jokes in that video considering that thing is towing a trailer load a goats...my mind is in complete overload right now.

I did see that afterwards - it initially looked like a picture at first glance though, which may have been why some where thinking the trailer was photoshopped.
