Lamborghini Aventador lp700 V12 sound

[mavada]

Heard a Lamborghine Aventador LP700 giving it the beans in first gear, thats <beep> mental...

[P_G]

Where was it, what colour and when? It may have been off to join the convoy heading down to Italy for Lambo's 50th anniversary drive. They are in Milan now. 350+ Lambo's supposedly turning up.

A friend of mine is luckily on this run!

[P_G]

Ditto. What Lambo is he driving?

[sonny]

I swore i saw one of these yesterday, was mental driving dow Park Lane, Could well have been en route to Italy,

[P_G]

What colour was it sonny? Orange by chance?

[sonny]

Think it was dark red

[P_G]

Was it an Aventador or Murcielago? I don't recall any red Aventadors in the country unless Saudi / Kuwaiti owned and shipped over. Having a friend as an Aventador makes you a little geeky about such things.....

This passed me when we were shopping in new bond street in January (saw a lad filming it and searched on YouTube a few days later to find this video), what a motor! I've never heard anything like it!

He is a tour director so not driving a Lambo, driving a Porsche

It looked very much like this mate http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjwxEZJVrQA

could well have been Arabian, as the "Arab season" has just started in london.

Was it this one:



Seen it driving around Victoria (close to park lane) a few times. My boss said the dude driving it looked like a guy that owns an airline and a football club (QPR maybe?).

[sonny]

ahh yes it does actually...good spot Mr Fish

[P_G]

That's orange sonny! Tony Fernandes does have one and I know of another Orange Aventador in London but he's not ont he 50th Anni drive as he unfortunately didn't pay his deposit in time.

Irony on that is that the cost per person for basic package for the 50th Anniversary drive was approx. £3500 and the deposit?..... £3000! Balance of £500 to pay. WTF!

[sonny]

Yes i did say"i think" it was red, i dont normally give Lambos a second look as they are ten to the penny around where i work, it was the noise of that one that made me turn my head.

Yea that is some money.. Hopefully it doesn't give PhilT any ideas.
