Lambo Murcielago LP670-SV China limited edition

Published: 23 Apr 2010

It's another limited edition Lambo. More power? No. Less weight? No. A platoon of rabid monkeys wielding AK-47s harbouring a penchant for destruction? Erm, probably not.

No, what we have here is an extremely limited edition Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 Super Veloce - the run-out edition Murci unveiled at last year's Geneva Motor Show.

But this one is different. Just ten have been built by Lamborghini for "China's most discriminating super sports car enthusiasts".

So what, loyal TG-ista, do you think Lamborghini did to the sensational SV to make it worthy of a motor show? Weaponise it? Add a toaster?

No. They painted an orange stripe on it.

Before you cry out in high anarchy, this orange stripe is different. Using a superbly tactless analogy, the stripe symbolises the "strength of an erupting volcano", obviously missing last week's memo sent out to The World about something in Iceland...

Should you be lucky enough to own one of these ‘limited edition' Lambos, you'll also get your name engraved on a numeration badge inside. Like having your mum sew your name into your He-Man pants.

Still, it's a Lamborghini. With a 670bhp 6.5-litre V12 and a mahoosive spoiler. So let's not get too sniffy.
