As production on their long running and well loved Murcielago supercar drew to a close at the end of the 00s, Lamborghini unveiled a special variant on the model at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. The Lamborghini LP670 (or LP670-4 SuperVeloce to give it its full title) was the fastest such model from the Italian marque to that point.
The ‘SuperVeloce’ or ‘SV’ signia in its name reflects that, for it really is super fast. In fact, this had more in common with a track car than it ever did with a road car, such was its sheer power and performance that made this a model only for the most skilled driver to attempt to wrestle behind the wheel of.
And you discover why, for this is kitted out with the most powerful V12 engine around, a 6.5 litre to be precise that offers an astonishing 670 bhp, helping it to accelerate from 0 - 60 mph in a record breaking 2.8 seconds, with top speeds achievable in excess of 209 mph, making it a supercharged beast more than worthy of its credentials.
