A limited edition always sound prestigious. However, when you’re talking of Lamborghini, it’s obviously a truly respectful brand that your friends will stare at. Due to its 50th annyversary, Lamborghini has announced a roofless Roadster version and just a few examples will be avaliable, depending on demand.

This limited edition costs about €3.3m (£2.8m), plus local taxes. Even Aventador Roadster is the “father” of Veneno Roadster, the “son” is ten times more expensive!

How can the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster possibly be worth £2.8m?

Let’s go step by step. The amazing bespoke body and open-air access to the uprated V12 must be paid. The powerful 6.5-litre engine has been tweaked up from 691bhp to 740bhp, which is delivered to all four aerodynamically-honed wheels. Five shifting modes are offered by the Independent Shifting Rod transmission, because Lamborghini believes is superior to a twin-clutch ‘box, thanks to claimed 50% faster shifts, and less weight. Its top speed? Some “explosive” 221mph!

 Would you want to be “poisoned” by this Veneno?
