Lamborghini Aventador Roadster review, test drive

If there is a part of the Aventador that is a bit tame, it’s certain bits of the interior. Whilst the digital instrumentation and red, ‘missile launcher’-style flip-up cover have all the elements of a fighter jet’s cockpit, a lot of the switchgear and the familiar MMI interface feel like they’ve been plucked out of an Audi. And these bits of parts sharing really stand out in a car that is otherwise beyond the extreme scale. 

The Aventador Roadster’s Rs 5 crore price tag is easy to justify. It’s not about making sense or being practical, it’s that no other car, not even a Ferrari, can assault your senses the way the Aventador’s mix of over-the-top styling and performance does. A testament to this is the fact that the Roadster is sold out till 2014.
