The workingWritten 25 Aug 2026, unedited since

A 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Bicolore running on Collecting Cars out of Nudgee, Queensland - Nero Noctis over Giallo Midas with Giallo stitching on Nero Persus, 118,312 kilometres indicated and not warranted, Australian-delivered.

This call is anchored on the car itself, not on a model

It sold through the same auction house in Sydney on 27 May 2025, at 116,399 kilometres, for $172,500 - 1,913 kilometres and fifteen months ago. Same chassis, same specification, same market, same channel, a known price. Nothing else in this library has a comparable that tight, and where one exists it outranks any base figure worked up from adjustments. The method here is therefore: start at $172,500 and price only what has actually changed since.

What changed, in order of size

The market, down. The kilometres, not at all. The paperwork, up. The gearbox, unknown and unchanged.

The market, and why the international evidence is weighted down here

Between November 2025 and May 2026 the LP560-4 was offered ten times internationally and sold once, a 2011 Bicolore failed at GBP62,000 in February 2026, and CLASSIC.COM now benchmarks the model at US$91,965 and falling. That converts to about A$128,700 - well under the A$172,500 this car made in Sydney. The two markets are not priced off each other. American supply is deep, Australian supply is thin, and import friction holds the local floor up, so international non-clearance is a real signal about the model and a weak one about the price of this car in this room. Marking an Australian Gallardo down on American inventory would be importing a number from a market that does not set it. The Australian evidence is thinner and points the same way but less far: a 2004 Gallardo at 58,900 kilometres made $137,500 in November 2025 and another at 72,436 kilometres made $122,500 in January 2026, and the Australian used guide still reads $190,500 to $210,600 private buy on a 2012 LP560-4. Taken together, minus six per cent over fifteen months.

The kilometres are worth nothing and the previous version of this call charged for them twice

1,913 kilometres on a 118,000-kilometre car is not a value event. More importantly, the $172,500 anchor is itself the price of a 116,399-kilometre car, so it already contains whatever the market thinks about high-kilometre Gallardos. An earlier draft of this call worked back to a $185,000 base and then applied a further twenty to twenty-five per cent distance discount on top - which charged for the same kilometres a second time, and sat directly against this record's own finding that there is no kilometre cliff. Two Melbourne sales three weeks apart in September 2024 make that finding: a 2005 special edition at 117,849 kilometres made $118,000 and a 2005 at 39,601 kilometres made $106,000. The car with 78,000 more kilometres made eleven per cent more. Documentation outranks the reading. Zero per cent.

The paperwork is better than it was at the last sale

In May 2025 the car carried a December 2024 service, a February 2025 software update and an April 2025 airbag ECU. It now adds a July 2026 service at 118,237 kilometres including coils and plugs, a Lamborghini Brisbane pre-purchase inspection from July 2026, and an August 2026 roadworthy. On a high-kilometre supercar that file is the difference between a strong result and a cautious one, and it is a genuine improvement on what the same bidders saw last time. Plus three per cent.

The gearbox is the one real discount

E-gear clutch life on this driveline runs to tens of thousands of kilometres, so a car at 118,312 has had two or three, and not one appears in the service history given. Replacement is a five-figure job, roughly $15,000 fitted. The wear percentage is read electronically and it will be in the Lamborghini Brisbane report; a bidder who cannot get it before the hammer prices the worse case. Risk-weighted, minus seven per cent.

And the boot lid

The aftermarket carbon rear wing comes with the original, which converts an irreversible modification into a reversible one, but the listing does not say whether the boot lid was drilled. On a Bicolore the black boot lid is a defining part of the two-tone package and a drilled or repainted one attacks the car's whole premise. Minus two per cent.

The call is $152,000

That is $172,500 taken through minus six, zero, plus three, minus seven and minus two.

The band is deliberately narrower than this library usually publishes, $144,000 to $162,000,

Because same-chassis-same-house-fifteen-months is the tightest evidence available anywhere in this record and the band should say so rather than hedging to look careful.

The upside is specific and nameable

If the clutch wear figure is published before the hammer and it is clean, the seven per cent comes back and this car is worth about $163,000. That is the single piece of information most likely to move the result, and it already exists on a report somebody is holding.

The 250-car claim is not supported

Lamborghini publishes no Bicolore production figure; the documented 250 belongs to the LP550-2 Bicolore sold in North America, and independent listings for the LP560-4 car consistently say 200. No premium is scored for the edition in either direction, because none is observable in any completed transaction - it exists in asking prices and marketing copy only.

One stated uncertainty in the anchor

Whether the May 2025 $172,500 was the hammer or included the buyer premium is not confirmed. If it included it, every figure above shifts down about six per cent and the call would be near $143,000. It is worked as a hammer, which is the harsher reading for this call. Predicted hammer $144,000 to $162,000, midpoint $152,000.

Where this number came from

The call is a prediction of one hammer. The record behind it is the Australian evidence for the model as a whole, and it carries its own grade for how much of that evidence exists.
