That moment when Richard says "when I'll leave top gear, I'll get a key ring and a copy of my DVD." :(
I wonder if he got the key ring?
Sadman Chowdhury sadly I don t think so:(
I think they took off a ring off their middle finger to wave him goodbye with it lol
If only every company gave tribute to dedicated employees. I can only imagine how proud the test driver must be to have one of the greatest super cars named in his honor.
How could you not end up with an awesome job like a Lambo test driver with a name like Valentino Balboni.
Cup holder delete - $650.00
Top speed - 200MPH
I’ve actually been in one of these (the balboni edition) and it was one of the most exciting cars I’ve been in. Loved it
If your name is Velntino Balboni you deserve a car named after you. That’s the coolest name ever
no mention of the manual gearbox. huh. Amazing car though, glad to find this review posted.
+Kyle Zickert manual gearbox?
+Thomas Fisherman they made a manual version
So, these are the facts i know about this car after watching the review:
-rear wheel drive
-named after famous test driver
-has a golden stripe on it
Typical top gear review..
I was thinking the same thing... he literally did not speak about the car one bit
Yeah mate I'm sure people who are genuinely looking to buy a lambo are watching this show.
199 mph not awd he said how many they made and why they made them when the last rwd only Lamborghini was made also said it’s lighter than the standard gallardo
Because people don’t want some random boring person rehashing stats from a media pack.
Hammond’s review is the best. He said the car is the very definition of passion. Enough for me to buy it.
imagine Gallardo superlaggera + Gallardo balboni combined=one of driving cars ever.
stig keyring made in china LOL!!
it's sad actually
That's right
jing713 WTF ITS MADE IN CHINA??!!
I need dis.
***** How about no.
Hammond always does great segments
I got the same exact toy model from Kyosho with the same color, too.
I would prefer to be a test driver than becoming an astronaut
Loïc Martel so would I
Best retirement gift ever.
Cant wait for new season!
Much much much better than the Huracán
Yup, and it would have been even better with a gated manual.
I wouldn't be so sure. I mean yes the Balboni definitely looks better than the Huracan and the single plate clutch with the rear wheel drive set up conveys more character in the Balboni than the gyroscopic four wheel drive system with the twin plate clutch does in the Huracan (I speak from experience having been in both of them, the video of the Balboni is on my channel And the Huracan video will follow later this year or early next). However, you can't get away from the fact that the Huracan is faster round a track. It has 50 more break horse power and is 0.6 seconds quicker to 60 mph. The new clutch also means the gear changes are sharper and the electronic stuff makes it more responsive. In short, the Huracan is a better car but the Balboni is a better Lambo, if you get what I mean. The Huracan performs better but the Balboni is truer to Lamborghini's distinctive characteristics. Personally, I prefer the Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera to both of them (having been in that as well, video will be posted after the Huracan video). It has even more character than the Balboni, about two or three times as much to be honest and would out perform both it and the Huracan on the track (on the track day I was on the Huracan was overtaken by the 570 multiple times). It also weighs less than the Huracan and handled better than the Balboni due to the second generation longitudinale posteriore four wheel drive system. I also think it looks better than the other two too. There's talk of a Superleggera version of the Huracan on its way though, that could be quite something! Oh yes.
glenn5749 I prefer the LP570-2 with a stick shift transmission.
The Huracan is a better car. But the Balboni is a better Lamborghini.
HOWEVER, there is now a RWD version of the Huracan which looks awesome, sounds incredible, has a duel clutch gearbox, is faster and more involving to driver.
You are right in saying that as a performance vehicle, the Huracan will trump the Gallardo easily. But the Gallardo is just more of a character. It's one of the cars I will remember. Everything about it is great! The sound, the sharp and detailed shape, the engine, the interior. The Huracan is too technical, too organic looking with it's rounded shapes, the shape is confusing because there is just too much going on that doesn't really work together. I also dislike how the DCT has ruined the symphony of the engine. In short... Impressive engineering piece, but not a very good Lamborghini.
AMAZING sound!
What an amazing car love it .
Awesome car!
Very nice.
1:28 LOVE THE SOUND
your dangling this in front of me like a toy and there is so much want in a 2 well drive Gallardo... damn it top gear :3
The hard core green machine.
Nice.
2:33 Goosebumps
I JUST LOOOVE THIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol they didn't give him shit they just fired you guys
+Carlos Caro Hammond and May quit, they didn't get fired. Top gear tried to get them to stay but they knew it wouldn't work without Clarkson so they followed him.
318 km/h, wow thats fast
I know one good retirement car name. McLaren Hammond! Sounds catchy too
where do i pre-order a Hammond? ;)
***** call Shmee
Miss episodes like this
its beautiful
Nice :)
Its so nice
Valentino Balbogey,
Awesome car
nice!
Best Gallardo ever
That's a sweet car
Hasn't Richard driven the Balboni in 14 season? With James in the blimp
No.................
Yep
No that was a Lamborghini Stephen
Yes he did drive a blue one I remember ? That challenge episode vs a blimp driven by James
Phúc Nguyễn Thế It was black, not blue. And yes, it was in the Airship Caravan challenge with James onboard the flying caravan.
No 4wd is excellent for professional race car drivers but for the everyday man, it's crazy to have a super car without the safety net of 4wd and other systems.
Nice
No 1080p in 2014 ? Do you expect to have electricity or phone one day in the UK?
pause the video at 1:16
Was this filmed in 09.09.2009?
I love lambo
nice
How cool was his job and a leaving present of a Gallardo and free service for life for sure. His surname could only be better if he was called Valentino Ballboneher.
Perfect... Haven't said that about a lambo since the Diablo SV.. Well, maybe an LP640...
By getting rid of the AWD they also get a better steering feel, its just nicer
Dream car
Niiiiiiice
weldone..warrior.
Do a episode with a all hyper cars vs each other in one drag race
Good
Fastest car I've seen in a long time
smack that!
I like green color and favorite car
Cool
I hear Balboni wasnt given an example. That would have been a perfect send off.
you guys should review the c7 corvette
i filmed a film crew filming the lamborghini huracan at the nurburgring two weeks ago. maybe top gear i don´t know (golf24 440hp vs lamborghini huracan vs porsche speed test)
In which season did he drive this??
nice :D
NYCE!
Hammond, if you don't want that dvd signed by yourself you can always send it over to me
Wow
I want one
Of course, the LP550-2 is the same, minus the Balboni cosmetic changes, right?
Yep. Kinda defeats the specialness of the Balboni.
Wow, that's beautiful, I've never been a big fan of awd...., that's why I love the suplelageara, Awd is practical, but are super cars supposed to be practical?
superlegera was AWD dude
Yea, I learnt that a couple days ago, I'd seen one in the past doing a burn out and then a drift and I'd just assumed
normal mistake, although not all awd's are equal, lambos and such have a biased central diff, more power goes to the rear than the front, that's why they don't understeer, i think the awd system sends 70% of the power to the rear wheels
Yep, same set up as the r8
some say, the r8 and the gallardo are the same car, with different tunning settings xD
A shame almost all of these videos are only in 480p...
And it’s in green, grand
Where's Hammond's booster seat? He's eye-level with the instrument cluster shroud, seriously..
I had the chance to see Valentino Balboni driving a Gallardo Balboni edition. He said to me "watchout, im driving."
I want one!
So did Hammond get his keyring?
i`m american and i watch this show all the time on netflix ( top gear)
I hope you mean the english version :D imo the USA Top Gear is extremely boring...the hosts are pathetic
Y u no at least 1080p?
Best Lambo
RWD Gallardo...
wow never knew its exists.
Did Balboni ever get one though? xD
480p?
There's another one that does but I don't remember the name
What's with the nice comments? What refference am I missing here?
Mup it on I say!
Lol! BBC no hd?
why 480p? isnt it 2013?
top gear with 480 quality ? WHAT A SHAME !!!!!!!!
Well this can win a 458 in a rolling start
2:08 you mean blue stripe
xD I almost didn't get that joke but when I did, it got me real good hahahaha
what does it mean? am not a native english speaker so I have difficulties reading between the words, or are you comparing it to the famous blue/gold dress? hahahahah I got it now hhahahaha
Yup that's correct. I forgot what the joke was about but remembered it again because of you lol.
ed tyler are you serious? Not a native english speaker? You have one of the most properly compesed youtube comments that ive seen in ages. Yet another way that the people im surrounded by let me down lol.
71sc502 Thanks a lot. That's very encouraging. Whenever I come across a word or a grammatical structure that I don't know, I never let it slip by, I look it up immediately. I've been learning English for years now and learn about 3 words a day, I just don't know how many I forget lol
I believe the only thing he and the other two got after all those years is an ass kick HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
you have a channel that focuses on visuals and sounds but yet the vids are not even HD.... :(
4 wheel drive was deleted and it saved 30kg. Sounds like they just deleted the front cv axles.
2:55..
Video of the Koenigsegg Agera and La Ferrari + fail and mclaren P1
Whats the music that starts at 1:58?
Anyone?
Stephen green - Snow glow.
I used sound hound.
think that with manual gearbox. That will be drivers car
Wait, first Lamborghini Rwd in 15 years? What about the Gallardo LP-550-2, thats rwd and you can get it in a manual transmission...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghini_Gallardo#LP_550-2_Coupe.2C_LP_550-2_AD_.282010-.29
Ah ok my bad, didn't realise this video was pre - 2012, which I really should of based on Richards hair :P
And what about Diablo GT? It was produced in 1999 and was RWD
Isn't this car the LP550-2?
MegaMaster456
No, but differences are minor. Main difference is the stripe :)
Dont leave topgear
Car sounds like it's speeding while doing 40mph.
One day I'll own a Lamborghini gallardo
The balboni is my favourite gallardo Shahzaine the som
