A privately owned McLaren Senna, on the streets of KL.

After a few failed attempts on capturing this particular Senna, I was finally lucky enough to spot it sitting at a shopping mall valet on a Sunday evening, proudly wearing number plates and a local road tax sticker.

Why did I specifically mention about the number plate and road tax sticker? Because frankly this car looks absolutely ridiculous to be on the roads, but despite the crazy look and aero-work that this car has, McLaren somehow made this a road legal car. This to me is the true definition of a race car on the road.

This particular Senna is Chassis #255. Thought I was actually lucky enough to photoshoot this particular car in a showroom last year, it's definitely something else seeing it out in the wild.

And this car is no garage queen either! The owner is a legend for bringing the hypercar out often, properly enjoying it just like what cars are built for.

It's hard to believe that the Senna is actually 4 years old now, but despite its age it's still an absolute stunner, and seeing one out on the streets of KL with number plates on is definitely something I will remember for a while.

The iconic wedge.

Never have I ever thought of getting a chance to see such an iconic Lamborghini myself, be it in the current state that it is, let alone pushing it up and down the tow truck.

Based on the Countach 5000QV, the Countach 25th Anniversario was built to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Lamborghini in 1988. Exterior restyling was penned by the founder of Pagani, Horacio Pagani himself, who was the chief engineer at the time before breaking away to start his own company.

One of my personal favorite things about the Countach is the design. Super low and sleek looking, yet it's so wide that it almost fully occupied a lane on the highway. Though it was designed to be aerodynamically efficient, ironically most parts of the car does not make it aerodynamic at all. Due to it's low and wide triangular shape, it was infamously dubbed as the "Italian Wedge".

With only 657 25th Anniversario ever produced, this particular unit is 1 of only 67 known right-hand drive examples to come out from the factory, finished with a silver exterior and blue leather interior, though the spec may be slightly unrecognizable due to it's current state. Sadly the car was abandoned and left exposed to the elements for over 20 years without an engine and gearbox, but there is, however, an interesting story in it's life before it became to this pile of mess, but I'll leave it for another post in the near future.

Took us a lot of time and manpower to transport this car to another place for safekeeping. Nearly 8 hours was used from manuevering, pushing and pulling, and loading and unloading it from the flatbed. Lots of energy was burnt and went through some trial and errors during the process, but it's not everyday that one can get close and work with an icon like this, it's definitely one of the experiences I'll never forget.

There are still a lot of things on this car that I wish to talk about, but I don't want to bore you with such a long Facebook post. But for now this iconic supercar is looking for a new owner to be looked after and hopefully restoring it to it's former glory (feel free to contact me for any inquiries!). Really hopeful for it to be up and running on the roads again, and I wish I'll have the chance to see it by then.

First shoot of 2022, featuring this sleek and super smart looking Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 fitted with some Superleggera bits.

It's kind of hard to believe that this car is reaching 14 years old now, the simplicity of the exterior design gave the car a timeless look, but with the shapes and lines of the car it's still easily recognizable on the road as a Lamborghini.

From the exterior, the car is fitted with ADV1 wheels, Superleggera front bumper, side skirts, rear diffuser and spoiler. The owner of the car also gave it a personal touch by wrapping the car in Gloss Black, complimented with yellow accents and brake calipers which made the car looked more aggressive, though the rare Grigio Lynx Metallic paintwork underneath will give the car a subtle and classier look.

Unlike the first generation Gallardo, the LP560 is powered by a 5.2-Litre naturally aspirated V10, pushing 520HP and 540Nm of torque. The firing order has also been changed, giving the car a deep and throaty exhaust note compared to the first gen's 5.0-Litre high pitched scream, and a Tubi exhaust system has also been fitted to further amplify the glorious roar of the V10.

The E-gear transmission is way out of date now. It's essentially an automated manual transmission without a clutch pedal, it's very jerky and might rock your eyeballs out shifting gears on high speeds. Yeah a manual transmission may provide a smoother and more fun experience but they are very rare to begin with and in my opinion the E-gear is somewhat a characteristic of the car that gave it its own soul.

Interior wise, it is still in a very good condition considering the age of the car. The interior is kept relatively stock except a few dry carbon panels on the center console. A fire extinguisher is also fitted behind the passenger seat just to be safe.

All in all, if you're lucky enough to look into purchasing your first Lamborghini, the Gallardo is still the perfect car to begin with if you don't mind the age and old technologies of it. Personally I'm not really into Lamborghinis, but if I were to choose between this and it's successor Huracan, the LP560 will still win my heart, though the LP570-4 Superleggera will be my ideal Gallardo.

PS: this bull is currently looking for a new home!

"Life is measured in achievements, not in years alone." - Ayrton Senna

Yeah so this happened, still can't believe that I'd get to see a McLaren Senna up close and personal, let alone taking photos of it or even sitting inside it.

Photos and videos really don't do this car justice compared to seeing it with your own eyes. When it was first unveiled, most people including myself hated how the car looks, but to be honest it actually looks beautiful in real life, but that is still down to personal opinion.

This car is the definition of form follows function to the extreme, it may not look the best, but each part of the car serves a purpose. The best way I think to describe this car is "scientifically beautiful", as said by Shmee150.

There is a lot to talk about this car, from it's design to the stats and figures to the innovation etc., but I'm just gonna keep this post short and simple and wrote some stats and facts on the caption of each photo below. Apologies if some of them are wrong, though.

But does the McLaren Senna deserves the "Hypercar" title? I'm not really sure about it myself either. But still it's a huge pleasure for sure to have a chance to see this car in person, and of course a huge thanks goes to the guys at Safa Global Holdings in Chan Sow Lin for allowing the chance to do so.
