Well it was about time to make the trip do Affolter :D thanks to Darkel for boosting me! On their website we saw a 360CS and a CGT that really made me take the decision LOL (never saw the CGT outside a motorshow so far).. of course neither was there LOL. The CGT just sold, the 360CS is owned by a customer wich has it at home and sells it through them... but who cares.. this is one of two Swiss dealership (not many contries have two official ones I think), and the biggest one! The lineup was mouthwatering: Diablo GT (again), SV, SVR, VT, EVO..., Countach, Murci and Gallardo even to many! And BIG surprise! In a separate room they keep a private collection! Sadly impossible to access the room to take pics, but since there were, between others, a Miura SV and an SVJ (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), I had to take at least a couple from outside! There was even a gullwinged Merc SL (impossible to take a pic), a Diablo racing car (at least), various roadgoing Diablos, an LM002 and more! Crazy!
In the end I was away roughly 6 hours all included! not really "next door", but not to hard since I left home at 8 am.
Well enough talking, here are the pics!
TWO THINGS:
- EVERY PICTURE IS CLICKABLE FOR HIGH-RES, MOST OF THE TIME 1600X1200, A COUPLE OF THEM ARE 1280 i THINK
- YOU ARE FREE OF COURSE TO POST ALL MY PICS ON OTHER WEBSITES. ANYWAY THERE IS MY LOGO ON THEM, AND SINCE A COUPLE OF PERSONS ASKED, I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO STATE THAT, ALTHOUGH I TOUGHT IT WAS OBVIOUS ;)
Here is a view from outside that little paradise on earth

First of all, one of the most frantic sightings I EVER had!! Not only my first Miura (yes, never saw one in the metal before :().. and sexy SV in white, but also an HYPER RARE SVJ apparently!!!
Sorry for the blurry pics, but they were locked away and I had to take the pics through an armored window :?

A couple of pics taken on the road.. it was a VERY nice trip.. 50% highway, the rest splitted between A roads and contry roads, perfect for spirited driving and basically nobody around!! Much fun :D
No idea why, but this little road was calling me.. that's why I had to add a filter to it :D to bad I had no time to explore :D
