You can pay £x million for something designed by Gordon Murray or Adrian Newey that has incredible engineering, or you can pay £x million for an Aventador with a body kit and a 48v battery.

You have to admire the accountants at Lambo....

When j see this I think more De Tomaso Pantera than Lambo.
The pumped GT5 edition.
And also the De Tomaso has spades more class than this abomination.
You’re not wrong.




And another car from that year from Lamborghini.


It all started to go downhill after that. This latest from Lamborghini seems a rather tragic and cynical marketing exercise. This will be bought to be either stored in vaults or driven down Kensington High Street on a Sunday.

A proper Lamborghini. The looks divding opinions. That's a win.

If this the future of styling for Lamborghini, then I am for it. But they need to sort out the following -

- make their cars lighter.
- provide a gearbox that can keep up with the best of them... Porsche, Ferrari, and McLaren.
- give is a 2WD V12 banger.

Other than that. I want one

So Lamborghini I love it.

This. There's not a load of innovation on display here for the additional 2 mil or whatever above an Aventador.

This car sounds a lot like my old neighbour “ It is nosier and angrier in the Sián than in any of its other applications”. I’m all about the spooling moose takes, they can be vary fanny. Not as fanny as the price to purchase individuality though. What price a personality?
A?

Lol.

I'm sure its just me... but...

It just seems a bit Emperor's new clothes? Compared to cars that have moved the game on (P1,918 and SF90) this just feels a bit er lazy?

Speculators wet dream, limited number, well beyond the means of anyone outside of the property portfolio set and challenging looks.

Think they nailed it with the Reventon, sometimes less is more

A car which was in very limited numbers and based on a previous Lambo - so much like the Sian in all so many ways then!?

I love the bonkers attitude still existing - and because they can is a pretty damn good reason in a sanitised world where cars are increasingly becoming white goods i.e. every single Tesla and their complete inability to employ a stylist - if that's the future, then give me a Sian everyday.

Brutalesque architecture never really works.

Although strangely Croydon has its fans.

Front looks nicely aggressive. Rear not so much.

Only Lambo could pull this off especially in grim sludgy Army green.

Quite like it overall.

I’d take the T50 or AMG One for this much money, but the world is definitely a better place for having mad Italians still building alien spaceships on wheels.

Automotive accountants everywhere worked out a long time ago that, if you make a few dozen of something a little bit special, you can charge an awful lot for them and your VIP customers still will bite your hands off for a place in the queue!

I don’t get the plaque in the centre console. It says “00 of 63”.
The article says 63 have/will be made.
If number 1 is the first and 63 is the last, then what’s 0 of 63??

Is 0 an integer now such that there’s a Sian numbered 0?
So there’s 64 Sian’s?

Someone care to enlighten me?

It’ll be the factory pre-production prototype, as opposed to one of the 63 customer cars. They won’t be selling this one, will use it as a press car and send it to the museum.

That would make sense.

Plus in 15 years if they’re strapped for cash it can be auctioned and no doubt be worth more than the customer cars as it’s car 0. Clever!

Utter crap.
