Congrats, the Aventador is an incredible supercar and still looks good for a car that came out in 2011.

Congrats!

Welcome to the club and what is probably the car that make the least sense and is least competitive and yet the best experience biggrin

Always amusing to share with bystanders (as you’ll discuss its merits with many) that its a budget / cheapest V12 mid engined supercar money can buy biggrin

Its theatre is unparalleled and its ownership only (mainly) really understood by those who had V12 lambos on their wall as a kid, no idea why i still have mine as it hardly gets used (probably why tbh) but when we do use it? It always like the first time and i car like that is a car worth holding onto!

You’ll have loadsa fun and maybe some heartache, but they are sooooo worth it, learning how to change gear smoothly in them is very satisfying and a secret that’ll always make you smile when you hear others criticise its gearbox smile

Enjoy!

How do you guys who don’t have the official warranty find it in terms of maintenance cost? I had to replace an ecu, water pump, oxygen sensor and both rear horizontal shock absorbers on mine - all on warranty thankfully.

that looks amazing - I have a very big soft spot for an Aventador, but have not taken the plunge yet.
Enjoy - the excitement made me smile - happy days

£20k of warranty repairs in 3 years, i’m glad i have one as the servicing is always circa £3k anyway..

RAC platinum have been brilliant.
