The Lamborghini Aventador



Lamborghini Aventador

   

Well this car has to be a personal favourite of mine, not just because it looks good but because of everything it does and stand for. Revealed in 2011 Lamborghini really went all out on this car and I think the car shows that considerably well. The Lamborghini Aventador is a two door sports car that was publically reviled with the press waiting. 
   

The Name

   

Well this is pretty simple and you may think it’s boring but there is a story behind the name. The name Aventador is from a bull. Lamborghini have their own tradition to name all of their cars after a bull, madness right? Well I think it is but I guess it’s only a name so it’s not that important. The Aventador was a bull who fought particularly violently and aggressively in Spain in 1993 and was remembered for his courageous fighting which is mentioned in promotional materials from Lamborghini. Weather the story is 100% true or there is a slight variation I do not know but the car is still fantastic.
    

  

Looks and Design

  

The looks of this car are fantastic and is really eye catching. It has to be definitely one of the strong points and a potential selling point if you want to go that far with it. I personally would never buy a car just of looks, I don’t think anyone would? The car has a nice simplistic design with smooth following curves which just look outstanding. Looks are all good and well but they are pointless if the rest of the car doesn’t match this quality, which brings me nicely to my next point!

The Engine

  

Wow is the only way I could describe the engine. Putting you foot on the accelerator just brings a common phrase to my mind “Unleash the beast within” and that thing really does unleash all its power. With a top speed of 230mph and a 0 – 60mph time of 2.9 seconds! The engine roars with beauty and can go a ¼ mile in just 10.6 seconds!  The Aventador’s heart is Lamborghini’s very own v12 engine which is the second kind of v12 engine from the company and if I am honest its performance is outstanding and has been noticed worldwide.
   

Criticism

  

Every good side has a bad side and even with cars like this there are some bad points that have been picked out during reviews. The main problem being the Aventador’s unrefined single disc clutch being the main area of criticism.
     
Most being strong points some reviews have even said “This is the best Lamborghini ever made” and another said “the friendliest v12 supercar in the world”. Everything said is very strong for the Lamborghini Aventador, apart from that pesky unrefined single disk clutch. 
   
If you are interested in Lamborghini Aventadors why not hire a Lamborghini Aventador from Alpha Drive?
