Would You Buy This Burned-Out Lamborghini For £13,000?

After what must have been a catastrophic fire, a wrecked and rusty Lamborghini Murcielago chassis has gone up for sale from one eBay seller who's obviously feeling lucky at the moment
Would You Buy This Burned-Out Lamborghini For £13,000?

What if we told you that you could buy a Lamborghini Murcielago for £13,000? What if we then told you that you could also buy a burned-out, rusted lump of metal for £13,000, and that they’re one and the same thing?

This poor old raging bull is quite literally just a fraction of the car it was when it left the factory. It caught fire one day and the whole thing is pretty much gutted. The roof has bent badly, what remains of the doors no longer seem to fit and the front and rear subframes are a rusty nightmare.

This twisted hunk of more or less junk is surely too far gone to make a worthy project. It’s difficult to see or imagine any salvageable components from what we can see here. When it comes to high-load driving, would you want to put your trust – and life – in a chassis that once looked like this? You’d always be better off buying a sound second-hand one.

It’s for sale on eBay in the US by a seller named ‘lamborghinidismantler’. He does seem to be legit, with a number of Murcielago parts for sale, but we still think this frame is too far gone to justify anything more than scrap value. A shame, really.

A bit of MCM magic could make that a great Apocalyptic rust mobile ;)

Ah hell yeah, I’d buy it! Replace the rusty bits with proper metal, fix the frame and body, and BAM! Instant rat rod Lamborghini.

And what exactly would still be original? You need to replace everything, might as well make one from scratch at that point

Save your money and just get a 1:18 diecast model

That would melt down into one expensive Disklok.

A Disklok is infinitely more usable at least

Eh, no. Parts would be pricey, and getting a gallardo v10 would cost more than twice what this burned pile is worth. I wouldn’t want a gallardo with a cheap LS swap either.

It’s a Murcielago, not a Gallardo

Or would you rather buy my RX-7 for $1,300

To be fair, your RX-7 is in a lot better condition than this ex-Lambo

I’d rather build one from scratch using real Lamborghini parts, at least that way I have a car that’s usable in the end

And cheaper. This car can’t be used. Not safely atleast.
