New Lamborghini Gallardo hits Qatar

Lamborghini has used the Qatar motor show to launch a new version of its venerable Gallardo supercar: this is the LP560-4 Bicolore.

As with anything in life, say it in Italian and it immediately sounds cool - the Bicolore (two-colour) features a two-tone colour scheme. The roof is ‘Noctis Black', and the body is available in five finishes: yellow, grey, white, blue and the orange you see above.

The wheels come in 15-spoke aluminium alloy flavour, forged to minimise unsprung weight, while the air intakes and front spoiler are finished in high-gloss black. The instrument panel, seats and door panels are upholstered in black leather with stitching matching the exterior paintwork.

Otherwise it's usual Gallardo fare - 560bhp V10, 4WD, 0-62mph in 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 202mph.

Nice, but can we have the new Murcielago now please?
