Default I met Valentino Balboni !
Hello,

Yesterday I've been to the 84th European Motor Show of Brussels.

I took alot of photos and while I was shooting the 2 Lambo of the booth, he came and talk to me.
He asked me where I get the shirt I was wearing.
It was a black lamborghini polo that my girlfriend offered me for Christmas with the lambo logo on the left.

First I didn't recognize him, then I remember seeing a video with him and Jeremy Clarkson in a orange Murcielago.

He called the lambo staff and they asked us to enter in the booth (nobody exept client was allowed to enter!!!)
Me and my girlfriend were really happy and a bit excited !!

There are the photos:




I was really upset, and he told me that when I when to visit the lambo site, I just have to call him !
He gave me his card with email and so on

Nothing to say, it was the best European Motor Show I ever made!
