Spotted a bright green Aventador near South Molton on Sunday while i was out cycling. Couldn't grab a pic, but it looked very nice under the winter sun. Wondered if it was a PHer. We don't get many supercars floating around in deepest Devon.

Admittedly not the best photo, but I cycled past this on the A3 London-bound in it's natural habitat. Complete with black and purple colour scheme and tyre writing (!). Certainly caught my attention in the low sun - and I'm not particularly bothered about McLarens.

Now that right there is a lovely colour scheme.

On the van? on The Mclaren the silver stickers do not follow the lines of the car. Its like my son building lego and missing the intended target for the stickers.

Whoever designed the wrap doesn't like the car. They have redrawn all the lines using silver highlights.

I don't disagree. I'm not sure what wonky decals has to do with me saying I like the colours they chose though.

Definitely an Aventador Boyse?

That's because nobody has ever corected the thread title to say what people want it to say.

Nothing wrong with black or purple in principle, more the application

I must have been reading Flemke's thread too long because the use of colours and stripes stood out to me. Dark purple and black have been chosen to make it more "stealth" in essence to reduce the lines and silver to redraw them.

Because we all want it to say different things! I like the rarities way more than the modern hypercars but happy to wade through the latter to get to the former. In return I'd hope people that get very excited by the latest Pagani can cope with the occasional Maestro Turbo (or whatever).

Haslemere yesterday.

Probably this exact car. Being followed very closely by a police Astra which was probably wondering how he was doing an ‘essential’ journey.

Personally don’t care, awesome.

Is that another Covid 'rule' I've missed? That 2 seat cars aren't allowed to be used for essential journeys.

Koenigsegg Regera.

Is that owned by the Thai Kid/racing driver? looks like the same colour scheme as his 'Naraya'.

You've also missed the one where journeys have to be essential, but as it doesn't exist in England, maybe you don't need to worry.
