Went out for a 20 minute ride in one of these at the NEC Classic Car Show - it was one of the Dream Rides for charity cars. It was a sensational experience I can tell you, even around the roads near the NEC the driver was gunning it big style and showed me what it was capable of! I was giggling like a girl for most of it, such brutal acceleration, awesome grip and a spine tingling engine sound from the 700bhp V12 made it probably the best 120 quid I've ever spent! My car felt a wee bit underpowered after that - and it's got 430 horses! (Vauxhall VXR8) laugh

They certainly are. And the guy who was driving (also owned the car) was great, really passionate about his car and was only too willing to show me what it was capable of. smile

This is me just before I got in the car, I couldn't figure out how to open the door! Wasn't quite sure how to pose for this pic, it was all very rushed - hence the awkward looking stance! smile

Ok just how much better does the 720 Roadster look than the standard Aventador

That is a standard roadster, the 720 has a different set of bumpers/side skirts

Looks phenomenal in matt yellow however!
