Oh my word. This is a Lamborghini Aventador SV in Viola, and we"d excuse you if you need to have a little sit down. It"s quite a thing, isn"t it? Viola is a key colour in Lambo history, of course. Nip back a couple of decades and one of the Aventador"s boldest ancestors the almighty Diablo was painted this very colour. This is Lambo"s not-particularly-retro take on retro, and we like it. That specific Diablo was an SE30, a rear-drive, 523bhp version of the slightly demonic Diablo. Its performance figures 0-60mph in 4.0secs, 210mph top speed might not look particularly staggering nowadays. But you"ll be aiming for them with a hefty manual gearchange and without any fancy driver aids. Good luck, basically
