SPOTTED - NEW LAMBORGHINI??

[Bugatti16.4]

Hi All

Driving just past twickenham stadium at 6.30pm yesterday and saw a large vehicle resembling a murcielago, covered in white and black wrapping. The rear lights were unmistakeably those of a murci however it seemed to have a pronounced rear metal lip (black) running across just above the exhaust.

Any ideas?

Ps it sounded like a mix of a boar, the roar of a lion and a thermonuclear device being detonated :-)

[village idiot]

was it a prototype of the new saloon lambo... stylistically it is very simmilar to the murci but with 4-doors

It didnt look elongated, so i dont think it was the saloon they are thinking of making.

But how the hell would twickenham get any Lamborghini prototype? How would that work? Dont all the cars get developed at the factory?
Its like the prototype of the Ferrari 458 being spotted in hinckley befor its oficial unveiling.

Was it the new Mac MP12-4C - as they are not too far from there?

I belive you saw this.... advertising a wrap company. It sounded awesome when he floored it towrards us, then realised what it was.

Strange, its seems to have different "bits" to a conventional Murci/SV?? Front spoiler/Exhaust/no rear spoiler/Wheels? Maybe a Murci with aftermarket bodykit?

Correct. Can't remember the name of the kit though. Looks rubbish IMO.

There was a thread about this car not too long ago. Didn't have the wrap on in those pictures though.

I tried hard to find a nice angle, but no joy.... the diffuser section is way too big and sticks out half a mile from the car, exhausts are odd, side intakes are half a meter wide... it just doesnt look right!

It sounded amazing when the owner put his foot down. Not my favourite car, but liked the wrap.

I would have heard it but not known what is was;) There were a lot of nice engine noises in the background.

Thats the one Sir, Thanks. God knows what on earth that thing is on the back though...

It's at the MPH show, not sure if the wraps helps it or not.

[ROOODBOY]

Oh my, how can such a glorious looking a car as a Murcielago end up looking like that!!!

Epic fail!
