The 5-year-old boy who wanted a 'Lambo' and stole his mother's car to go and buy it is now cruising around in a Huracán

First of all, I apologise for the headline. It is long, highly informative and leaves little room for doubt about the content this article covers, but the story itself of the 5-year-old boy whom the Utah police stopped while driving his mother’s stolen car because he wanted to buy a Lamborghini in California with a budget of 2 dollars keeps growing, just like my headline.

Be that as it may, we are looking at a possible series worthy of appearing on one of those channels where reality shows and programmes that film and broadcast the lives and deeds of anonymous or famous people fill the television entertainment schedule.

Indeed, why not, with two episodes already out of Adrian Zamarripa’s story, the protagonist of both articles and, since then, the hero of his school playground, the most admired boy in the play area he frequents, a new star, it is quite possible that some production company is already interested in backing a miniseries about the boy who had a great dream and nothing was going to stop him from achieving it… until a patrol car stopped him while driving his mother’s car.

And so, watch out for the power of dreams. Watch out for tenacity. Watch out for the drawing up of a master plan carried out by a five-year-old whose goal is that of many others but which very few can achieve. Of course, not with such a limited budget.

Martin Luther King already proclaimed it: ‘I have a dream’

Something that, allowing for the differences, Jeremy Neves has managed to fulfil. He is the owner of a spectacular Lamborghini Huracán, who learned of the incident, along with a good handful of owners of other vehicles of the brand, since, according to the Zamarripa family, he was not the only good Samaritan who took an interest and offered Adrián the chance to fulfil his dream. Something that has been immortalised for posterity and broadcast by Utah’s news programmes.

And although it is true that Neves has not transferred ownership of the car to him, he has granted him the opportunity to sit in the driver’s seat, though not to drive the Lamborghini Huracán, but to take a few souvenir photos.

Furthermore, since the minor, as is obvious, does not have a driving licence, Jeremy himself acted as chauffeur for his guest and gave him the opportunity to travel inside a Lamborghini for the first time in the little boy’s life, without having to spend the 2 dollars Adrián had budgeted for buying the car of his dreams, which he will surely keep in a safe or deposit in an investment fund that allows him to save up to buy his own Lambo.

A lovely and heartwarming story which, for now, closes its latest episode here. What we don’t know is when the next instalment will be broadcast, whether with the boy getting his driving licence or with Adrián himself going to the Californian dealership to collect his Lamborghini… hopefully with a little more than 2 dollars in his wallet.
