London has a special place on the world map of supercars and while the vast go-fast machine population of the British capital confirms this, you wouldn’t exactly name the city so after actually driving a supercar through it. We’ve brought along a video that shows us exactly how this feels, offering us a POV ride.
The Lamborghini we are talking about is an example of the brand’s best-selling model, a Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante. As you can notice in the video, the driver never quite manages to explore the V10’s might, with a respectable second-gear sprint being the baldest move available.
At a certain point, the madly accelerating Lamborghini meets a group of pedestrians crossing on the wrong colour, with the result being an amusing one. The driver probably spent quite some time planning his route, as the footage never sees the Gallardo stuck in traffic . Still, there are plenty of cars waiting in line on the other side.
Moreover, the abundance of pedestrians is what makes driving a supercar in London pretty difficult. There’s always someone looking to reach an area that requires them to cross paths with you. And while some pay attention to supercars, many walk without noticing these, which means you'd better pay attention.

There's quite a bit of room in the garage that is this aficionado's heart, so factory-condition classics and widebody contraptions with turbos poking through the hood can peacefully coexist.
