Lamborghini Reventon Roadster driven

We know that the Lamborghini Reventon Roadster isn’t exactly new, but the fact that only fifteen were produced means that you’ll probably never see one in the flesh. So, until your numbers come up, a video review will have to tide you over.

This film, the first effort from the guys at The BHP Project, sees Stuart McKay head to Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground to experience what is one of just three right-hand-drive versions to be built. Using the 6.5-litre V12 engine from the Murciélago LP 670–4 SuperVeloce, the carbon fibre-bodied Roadster cracks 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 330 Km/h (205 mph).

Each car was painted in a slightly different shade to the Coupe, named Reventón Grey, which had a matte finish, and when it went on sale in 2009 it carried a hefty pre-tax price tag of €1.1 Million.
