What can you offer the multimillionaire who has everything? Lamborghini thinks it knows the answer
On a warm track, the STO was defined by the hugeness of the grip its semi-slick tyres and aerodynamic downforce could generate. On a sub-zero mountain pass, adhesion is scant and hard to find. Even with the stability control fully engaged, the V10 is surging and the rear axle vibrating as the wheels spin on the slippery surfaces, all the active systems struggling to find traction for even a small percentage of the peak 631bhp.
Despite that, the Evo acquits itself impressively well, all four wheels spinning most of the time but with the ability to send torque forwards allowing it to recover from some lurid slides. Not so the STO, which struggles to get past an indicated 12mph and never leaves first gear, spending much of the session rotating in uncatchable low-speed spins. It feels entirely ludicrous, but surely even the most overindulged millionaire couldn’t fail to find amusement in such a challenge.
This is a more involved process than any online configurator and a very hands-on one. The studio has paint and fabric swatches for every factory option and ‘extended’ colour so you can see what goes with what. The consultants are also adept at offering advice on what goes with what and what definitely doesn’t.
