Lots of things anyone who has any mechanical sense or skill and a few tools can do. I have not wrenched on my car yet but wrenched the heck out of my E36 M3 and from a mechanical perspective there is not much difference. You can easily:

-Change oil, filter, air filter, microfilter
-Change/swamp lights, exterior and interior
-Change brake pads, brakes, rotors
-Add stainless steel brake lines
-Change struts, shocks
-Install exhaust
-Change diff fluid
-Hardwire radar detector
-Change belts
-Flush radiator
-etc., etc., etc.

That being said working on most cars built later than the 80's is a bit painful in the fact that space is at a serious premium and getting your hands and tools into some spots is REALLY tough.

Also if you actually own and drive a Lambo you probably should not waste your time wrenching on your own car.
