Last Lamborghini Gallardo is built ahead of Cabrera debut Lamborghini may have started out as a Tractor Manufacturer, but it’s been making stunning road cars for 50 years, and despite the Lamborghini Gallardo only arriving 10 years ago it has managed to sell enough to account for around half of all Lamborghinis ever made.

Somewhere prior to that Land Rover had quietly dropped the V6 petrol engine (in the UK, at least), so adding a more powerful version of the 2.2 litre diesel made sense as did providing a lower price entry point in the FWD Freelander.
