Geri Halliwell Got a £220K Lamborghini for Her Birthday

Former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell recently celebrated her 37th birthday and her boyfriend, Henry Beckwith, made sure she got an unforgettable present. Not only did he planned the day, but also introduced Geri with her new set of wheels: a £220,000 ($367,444) right-hand drive Lamborghini.

What more could you want from a man who you’ve been dating for five months? Geri seemed to be thrilled with her new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640-4, complete with gull-wing doors.

Well, we can't say we blame her. Powered by a 6.5 litre V12 engine, the car has a top speed of 211mph (340 km/h) and can accelerate from rest to 62mph in just 3.4 seconds.

The two-seater features a super-light but super strong carbon fibre body, ‘wrapped’ in a gun metal grey exterior, with banana yellow trim, some experts say according to the Daily Mail. The LP640 comes from "Longitudinale Posteriore", that refers to the position of the car's engine, which delivers 640 horsepower.

We would say that Geri had reasons indeed to be surprised. First of all, having a five-months relationship is a phenomenon, she says. Second, the Lambo was only the beginning. Henry then took her to a surprise party at the Palm restaurant in Knightsbrige, where her former bandmate Emma Bunton (Baby Spice) and comic Alan Carr were waiting for her.

Geri and her friends continued partying at Whisky Mist, a well-known celeb hangout place. From there, Ginger Spice and her faithful boyfriend moved on to Raffles on the King's Road. They managed to stay until 3.30am, when they took a taxi and went home. The couple seemed to have quite a good time together, leaving us with the impression of a long-lasting relationship.
