The Lamborghini Aventador S is the most ferocious bull in the line-up with 740 horsepower and various upgrades to the iconic Aventador, it means business in a very strange way. If you asked a child to draw a supercar, this is more or less what they would come up with so let's find out why...
It is impossible to make the car much lighter if you want to retain the V12 naturally aspirated formula. The LaFerrari weighs almost 1,600kg too (well, they also have the batteries). I am pretty sure Lamborghini have done plenty of focus groups and I can bet the majority of their customers want to stay naturally aspirated and a V12 for the flagship car. I remember Pagani also did a ton of focus groups before they built the Huayra. While Pagani wanted to go the turbo route, its customers told them they had to keep the V12 even if they wanted to turbocharge it. And if I am not wrong, going forward Lamborghini will most likely take the hybrid route like what the LaFerrari did which is fantastic news. You see, sometimes it is not necessarily about having the fastest car, rather a car that messes with your senses and stirs your emotion. I just can't imagine a turbocharged Lamborghini supercar ala McLaren 720S. Sure, the coming Urus will be turbocharged, but that is a SUV daily driver which is more acceptable.
Your Aventador S videos (on snow) helped me when I went to its launch in Beirut a couple of weeks ago. I did a pretty cool video with plenty of info! Thank you Shmee for inspiring and always informing us... Cheers from Lebanon!!
Fr. Duffy Fighting 69th hey man! You should definitely consider visiting Lebanon. The country is just amazing and especially in summer!! We have LOTS of touristic areas and delicious food :p
IMO I was young when the Lamborghini Countach was popular in the 80's, it was the sickest car on the planet , and though I loved the Diablo and the Murcielago I never really thought they ever came close to matching the aura and insanity of the Countach, until they released the Aventador!
Great review!! Absolutely epic!! Once you become a Lamborghini fan, you will always be a Lamborghini fan. For me, it goes all the way back to the Countach when I was a very young kid and nothing else beats it. There are faster cars around, but it is the Lamborghini design language and the awesome sound of the naturally aspirated V12 that does it for me.
first comment from Africa! #Kenya As always, Shmee you're the man when it comes to proper car knowledge!!! Love the info, like always!!! Keep up the great work!
You're welcome!! Thanks for replying!! I've been watching since Nov 2016, but I went back all the way and made my way up to date!! Out here, the wealth exists to enjoy these cars, it's only a matter of time until the infrastructure catches up! Then maybe one day you'll be checking out Super/Hyper/Mega cars in East Africa!!. Once again, I'm a fan, and please keep up the good work mate!
Shmee150 Hi Tim, you have fans on a global scale Tim. Give it 5 years you could have your spot on Top Gear let's face it apart from Chris Harris who has a spot on the show you would be perfect due to the fact you have owned a vast range of car's but also driven well when it comes to number I have no idea but Tim get ready it's on the cards I promise not many You Tubers do what you do and do it with ease and ever so well. Best Regards, Alan B
You are brilliant i found you back in 2010 when you were going car spotting but i started to watch your videos in the day when you uploaded the Romanian Car Collection and you're contet is amazing .You have great taste at cars and i hope you will get your dream car.#notificationsquad Cheers!!!
I remember back when I would watch videos of supercars and thinking that the exhaust seemed a bit quiet, then I quickly disregarded that thought when I stood next to a aventador starting up
I sat in an Aventador S in Warsaw (their demo car) and I think it was the exact same spec! The doors, the warm smell of new car and leather, so damn low, so damn aggressive, awesome car!
That looks like so much fun Shmee150.What an epic car,admittedly not to everyone's taste.I would buy one if I could afford it because that much raw power must be so addictive.I would only drive it once a week but if you saw me on the road you'd think that Lambo was stolen😂
I can't believe you were up at that dealership haha. I take a trip through at least once a month to have a look round. I knew exactly which one it was straight from the thumbnail. Shmee north of the border again, nice one lol
Lamborghini bought this car a few years until it has to be replaced by some very good updates. Still wish it had a double clutch gearbox. Start putting those in lambos and they take the brand to another level. Nice vid fun car
Shmee, great video yet again!! Would you be able to review an R34 GTR? I know they're mad rare but i think we'd all enjoy you reviewing that myth of a car!
Yeah, i thought as much. Just think it would make a really interesting quick video and I'm sure all of us 20 year olds would go crazy for it! The sound of those turbos spooling >.>
Can you try get abother test drive or another passenger drive in the koenigsegg regera in the dry like you did in this video. Btw love your videos and keep up the good work
Eamon Yap yea I agree, the S Roadster is worth more as your not gonna take it out everyday so it’s nice to take it out on summer and convert it but the Coupe is better looking and is slightly faster in acceleration by 0.01
I usually don't really fancy Lambos (think it used to be the head- & taillight that made the car look weird), but this one is rather nice I must say. Love the wheels, they are gorge and the interior is classy too.
@shmee150 in the video at @1:50 its actually a pentagonal design which is exceedingly rare in design language throughout modern and classics. Very interesting to look at.
Hi Tim, this car screams aggression from the looks to the engine & exhaust sound also it's a neck breaker but could you daily drive the outstanding power house of a car at 740hp and has more torque than a nuclear missile. The only one thing puts me of this car is the gearbox otherwise I'm sold. Great Vlog Tim. Regards , Alan B
Whats the SE that you see in the rear view mirror in 11:10-11:15? I'm thinking its ending with and X when you go full throttle? Must be the same :D Cheers from Denmark :) love your vids.. Only a bit jealous of your lifestyle ;)
To me, the looks of the Aventador LP700-4 are the best ever. This S looks good, but not as sharp and agressive as the LP700-4. I d like the open vents, they look amazing. If someone asks me which one I would prefer, I would go for the 'old' Aventador, get some matte black paint on it with orange brake callipers 👌 best looking car ever!
How do you get all the money to run/get these supercars? Also please may you do more car spotting videos? I'm a car enthusiast myself and have followed your channel since you had the mclaren 12c new. Loving your videos keep it up!
I don't understand why you think the scrolling is "completely backwards"? If you were turning volume up you would twist clockwise, so makes perfect sense that clockwise rotation also scrolled up?
I think that sound would fit better for SV, This model S is less aggressive looking but sounds more aggressive than an SV. Overall as always amazing car.
one question, why does Lamborghini still continue to produce Aventador after Aventador SV is out? I mean, isn't SV supposed to be the last of that specific model??
Someone should do a summary of car widths. Lots of supercars are as wide as a bus and takes some of the fun out of it when you're constantly worrying about squeezing down tight roads, depending on which country you're in.
Anyone wondering what Lambo model is being concealed under the covers in the showroom since it's been featured a couple of times in Shmee's videos. Don't tame with the bulls or they'll do it up Pamplona style.
I love all the videos you make, but you need a 4K camera. The video quality is good, don't get me wrong, but it would be superb with a high end 4K camera. And with all those cars in the garage, I think money isn't an issue.
I have a high end 4K camera, but I am unable to deal, edit and upload 4K content daily. It simply is impossible within the current way content production is going. If internet speeds go up and there is a codec that supports smaller file sizes of 4K videos then maybe but at this moment it is simply impossible.
Just an honest fan suggestion, you have awesome content, but i believe an update on your camera gear and editing will give such a big impact on the quality of your vids.. Please let us watch these wonderful content on more pixels and with a better vid quality..
Unfortunately, there is not always the time to edit the video better. We do if we can and when Ben is around. More pixels than what I have right now is not possible. 4K videos are impossible to deal with. File sizes are too big and upload times too long. The camera gear is totally fine, many other RUclipsrs use it. You might want to see me use a DSLR, but I cannot deal with the constant out of focus of the camera.
Great video, thanks - I love this car - it is the essence of super car exotica - there maybe others that are better technically in some aspects but who cares that is not what it's all about - which is why it baffles the hell out of me when people talk about it's lack of storage space/glove box etc..... who gives a sh*t ??? I'm sure Lamborghini decide at the design stage that anyone who does care shouldn't be allowed to buy one !!
I like how there's still the same 10-year old Audi MMI navigation system in the car. Like they can't even invest some money into programming a new one or simply use the new Audi MMI

shmee the type of guy that owns several super cars, but dont know how a exhaust works. lmao
Sorry shmee but i can't understand what you say because that engine sound take all my attention... amazing!
Haha, that's not a bad thing
think you need to get that new microphone ;)

That's very cool I might visit

I actually fell in love with this car.
Thanks Shmee!
I love the look of that beautiful leather interior. So glad to see it isn't the usual black. Thanks.
Great review!! Absolutely epic!! Once you become a Lamborghini fan, you will always be a Lamborghini fan. For me, it goes all the way back to the Countach when I was a very young kid and nothing else beats it. There are faster cars around, but it is the Lamborghini design language and the awesome sound of the naturally aspirated V12 that does it for me.
its been 7 years since the first release of this car and its design is still way ahead of 2018..unbelievably breathtaking car

Wow, thanks for watching from Kenya!

He's right. You would be amazing! You would just be perfect. Keep up the good videos!
I just followed this exact car about 20 miles from Glasgow to Edinburgh on the M8, what a machine, it is automotive perfection.

amazing content everyday keep up with the good work Tim
Such an awesome car! Like they took people's dreams and made a car out of them!
Great video Tim. It was very informative and entertaining! 👍
Thanks for the support
I saw an S in Chicago and it's a nice looking car, you really have to see it in person to appreciate the new look lol.
All you've got to do is look at Tim's smile and you have your answer of how awesome it is 👌🏽👌🏽
I sat in an Aventador S in Warsaw (their demo car) and I think it was the exact same spec! The doors, the warm smell of new car and leather, so damn low, so damn aggressive, awesome car!

Nice to watch a channel were someone really is a car lover cool 😉👍
I can't believe you were up at that dealership haha. I take a trip through at least once a month to have a look round. I knew exactly which one it was straight from the thumbnail. Shmee north of the border again, nice one lol
I think this is one of your better reviews, you really captured the emotion of Lamborghnini
Great car.Schmee lives on another planet with the lifestyle he lives trying all the super cars .
Lamborghini bought this car a few years until it has to be replaced by some very good updates. Still wish it had a double clutch gearbox. Start putting those in lambos and they take the brand to another level. Nice vid fun car
love your videos keep it up! :)
Here before the title change.
Shmee, great video yet again!! Would you be able to review an R34 GTR? I know they're mad rare but i think we'd all enjoy you reviewing that myth of a car!
Not really my kind of car...
Yeah, i thought as much. Just think it would make a really interesting quick video and I'm sure all of us 20 year olds would go crazy for it! The sound of those turbos spooling >.>
The V12 is a monument 😍💪
Really nice video, cheers!
Can you try get abother test drive or another passenger drive in the koenigsegg regera in the dry like you did in this video.
Btw love your videos and keep up the good work
There is something incongruent with an AARP advert that plays during the Aventador S demo from Schmee 150.
Woow a raging Lambo with a very very nice Aston interior look and feel....SUPERBE
I live in Scotland and I'm close to it and I saw that it was getting test drive
The best aventador I've seen so far
Eamon Yap yea I agree, the S Roadster is worth more as your not gonna take it out everyday so it’s nice to take it out on summer and convert it but the Coupe is better looking and is slightly faster in acceleration by 0.01
tim, with a bit of mention, those high intakes at the rear are a modern interpretation of those on the countach
I usually don't really fancy Lambos (think it used to be the head- & taillight that made the car look weird), but this one is rather nice I must say. Love the wheels, they are gorge and the interior is classy too.
@shmee150 in the video at @1:50 its actually a pentagonal design which is exceedingly rare in design language throughout modern and classics. Very interesting to look at.
Beautiful spec for an older aventador S owner.
Saw your car today in Meilenwerk, Düsseldorf :D
I love your videos man keep up doing great work
Thanks for the support!
Loving the new front end design, very aggressive!
I think this colour is very very nice!
It makes very sense to drive this around daily
Love the design changes: A bit more agressive without over-styling it, well done #lamborghini #volkswagen #VW
A few weeks ago I went to Lamborghini Manchester and I saw 2 aventador SVs, an aventador s, a huracan performante and a standard aventador!
Haha.. I could see the torque pull, put you to the back.. great review. 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Hi Tim, this car screams aggression from the looks to the engine & exhaust sound also it's a neck breaker but could you daily drive the outstanding power house of a car at 740hp and has more torque than a nuclear missile. The only one thing puts me of this car is the gearbox otherwise I'm sold. Great Vlog Tim. Regards , Alan B
I love the brown leather in that classic style!
I still love the Diablo though! 😈
It's still an amazing car after 25 years!
The Aventador has a cool back steering and I like the the body they changed the front
hey Shmee great video, keep up the good work and also i was just wondering what camera you use
Sony Handycam PJ810
Whats the SE that you see in the rear view mirror in 11:10-11:15? I'm thinking its ending with and X when you go full throttle? Must be the same :D
Cheers from Denmark :) love your vids.. Only a bit jealous of your lifestyle ;)
it sounds awesome. great interior to ☺
WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's about 10 meter 26... Right? Love the video's Tim!
Would be a nice car in the collection, tim!
To me, the looks of the Aventador LP700-4 are the best ever. This S looks good, but not as sharp and agressive as the LP700-4. I d like the open vents, they look amazing. If someone asks me which one I would prefer, I would go for the 'old' Aventador, get some matte black paint on it with orange brake callipers 👌 best looking car ever!

Welcome to edinbruh
How do you get all the money to run/get these supercars? Also please may you do more car spotting videos? I'm a car enthusiast myself and have followed your channel since you had the mclaren 12c new. Loving your videos keep it up!
I answered these questions in videos before ;) Check them out in my history of videos and you find your answers :)
Thanks! I'm only 11 but one day I would like to own a supercar of my own! Keep the good videos up!
Shmee is the luckiest guy on this planet, he gets to drive all the coolest whips❤️
I don't understand why you think the scrolling is "completely backwards"? If you were turning volume up you would twist clockwise, so makes perfect sense that clockwise rotation also scrolled up?
I LOVE Lamborghini's. You magnificent machine!
I think that sound would fit better for SV, This model S is less aggressive looking but sounds more aggressive than an SV. Overall as always amazing car.
dream car
I would love it in Matte Black Aventador S is my favourite Lamborghini and it's better than the standard Aventador
SuperGT Performance not matte black. It looks like a very expensive chalk board
I love this car !! =)
one question, why does Lamborghini still continue to produce Aventador after Aventador SV is out? I mean, isn't SV supposed to be the last of that specific model??
WRX's have the wheel/wheel turn display too.
i love the brown leather
I'm left mixed from it
Shmee, will you be near Dundee again any time soon? Going back up for uni next week and would love to see you and a car!
Not anymore...
Shmee150 ah, oh well, maybe next time when you're at the Tay bridge haha
Shmee you are the boss man
Someone should do a summary of car widths. Lots of supercars are as wide as a bus and takes some of the fun out of it when you're constantly worrying about squeezing down tight roads, depending on which country you're in.
What were the earlier models to have an S variant, besides the Countach and Miura?
Zain Jafar Urraco S and Jarama S
Anyone wondering what Lambo model is being concealed under the covers in the showroom since it's been featured a couple of times in Shmee's videos. Don't tame with the bulls or they'll do it up Pamplona style.
How does the seats of this Aventador S compare with the seats of Performante?
Shmee150:; nice as always Tim, question Tim, I know you viewed the BMW 8 series concept but are you going to review the BMW Z4 concept any time soon?
Let's hope it is at the IAA in Frankfurt
Lighter Exhaust ? Sounds Epic ? Gained Power ?
They STRAIGHT PIPED IT !!! xD
THINKS, TIM AND CREW.
I love the Aventador and its ridiculousness
What is underneath that cover next to the Porsche?
Scotland is beautiful!
I love all the videos you make, but you need a 4K camera. The video quality is good, don't get me wrong, but it would be superb with a high end 4K camera. And with all those cars in the garage, I think money isn't an issue.

If internet speeds go up and there is a codec that supports smaller file sizes of 4K videos then maybe but at this moment it is simply impossible.
Makes perfect sense to me.
@ 16:02 the moment Shmee gets confused. Dude, clockwise is up and counterclockwise is down.
the same place where you drove the performante???
Same dealership yes, Lamborghini Edinburgh
Wow the S sounds better than previous aventador series.
Now it's your turn to get one!!!!
Shmee should definitely buy one of these
But I am not going to buy one ;)
Do a review on the custom f12
Just an honest fan suggestion, you have awesome content, but i believe an update on your camera gear and editing will give such a big impact on the quality of your vids.. Please let us watch these wonderful content on more pixels and with a better vid quality..

Tim, may I just ask. Do you feel any of the current Lamborghini line up deserve a place in your garage?
Nothing that could replace any of the cars in my garage.
Can't wait for the aventador svj, it will be the last v12 without hybrid power.
Great video, thanks - I love this car - it is the essence of super car exotica - there maybe others that are better technically in some aspects but who cares that is not what it's all about - which is why it baffles the hell out of me when people talk about it's lack of storage space/glove box etc..... who gives a sh*t ??? I'm sure Lamborghini decide at the design stage that anyone who does care shouldn't be allowed to buy one !!
Can you get Shmee150, merchandise anywhere and if so where, if not are there any plans?
Working on it but ready yet.
how are the seats in the aventador s? still very uncomfortable?
Firm, but not as bad as the buckets or the regular seats in the Huracans
Omg shmee boss baby just killed my bro😱😱😱
Oh That Guy cancer
I like how there's still the same 10-year old Audi MMI navigation system in the car. Like they can't even invest some money into programming a new one or simply use the new Audi MMI
What a Beast
All the disliked things < Noise it makes. Do you have any news about the Urus SUV by lamborghini?
single clutch choosen for adding drama and ligtness the same for paganis
