As part of the Retro Rides Supercar Week , let's have a brand-new one. The Lamborghini Aventador, the replacement for the Mucielago, due to be launched at the Geneva show. Aventador was, apparantly, a bull whose career peaked in 1993 in the town of Zaragoza, in Spain, when he and the torero had a particularly spirited encounter prior to ol' Aventador's inevitable skewering. This particular beastie belonged to the breeding stables of the sons of Don Celestino Cuadri Vides and, for unknown reasons surely banal, he bore the number 32 singed on his hide. And now he gets the strongest Lamborghini ever built named after him. About damned time; most people were getting tired of mispronouncing "Murcièlago" (prounounced mur-che-largo in Amazo World) over the past ten years and now they have a new proper name to mutilate. More info and a little condescension towards past Lambos, here.Does this car have a bad angle at all? Apart from the ugly centre console, the cheap air vents and the glaring omission of a gated manual shift, I quite like the interior. Origami comes to Sant'Agata. Now we know why the Reventon existed.

I didnt like it at first, but as i scrolled down, i started too!
I love it down to the fact it's so flash, yet the engine management light is the same as every other vehicle ever ;D

I like it apart from the centre console could they have not put all those buttons into the interface on the screen?

I ignored the Reventon. I hated the Murcielago (I can pronounce it right too)...
But this I LIKE. The angled roof is a nice touch. The front looks just like the rest but the rear does it for me. Inside is nice. I can't find a curved line on the whole car, and being a fan of the 80s, this is good.

Dear Santa Easter bunny......

Remember the days when sex was safe and motorsport was dangerous. Vintage bling always attracts pussy.

The ONLY flaw I can find with this (besides the price tag, lol) is the nasty-nasty plastic clip-on trim in the engine bay.. just looks like any other vw plastic tat maybe a nice piece of pressed alloy, or carbon fibre would have looked SO much better!

You're like a crazy backyard genius!

no gearlever = failure
but I find consolation in the fact that all those poor rich chumps who forked out £92784m for a Reventon must be pretty gutted!
