Wonder what caused this.

Shooting exhaust flames?

Possibly after market exhaust, mind you sitting revving the nuts off it could have been involved, and the flames are only going upward on the body when stationary. What a shame lovely car!

You'd think that given the number of videos of precisely this happening owners would stop revving them on the spot.

isnt that an anniversary edition aventador?

interesting on the latest sv the exhaust is rather ugly and points downwards to the ground.

Probably after market exhaust.
I've learnt, over the years, on anything mechanical, leave it as it was when it came out of the factory........

A chav with money. Shame to waste a great car though. I wonder if the other drivers caught up in the 'traffic chaos' were impressed...

I just realised I passed that exact car near London bridge - must have been about 5mins before that happened (it was heading west). I remember it was very loud, so either aftermarket exhausts or the valve system was open... the car did look modified, although it might just have been a unique colour scheme...

Perhaps these excessive revving in traffic fires are the car's ECU AI choosing to self-destruct when it realises it's being driven by an attention seeking knob.

Love it. If only that were true
