Someone Wants To Save This Lamborghini Aventador That’s A Fake SV | Carscoops
When it was new, this Aventador was valued at around $350,000 but it has seen better days

- The Italian supercar could be converted to rear-wheel drive and may get a stick shift.
- A previous owner has adorned the car in a fiberglass bodykit mimicking the Aventador SV.
- Tavarish recently took a look at the car at Copart’s Florida lot.
Copart is selling a matte black Lamborghini Aventador out of its location in Orlando, Florida, and it could soon end up in the garage of famous YouTuber Tavarish.
The following Aventador is a 2015 model, and from first impressions, it looks like a desirable SV version. However, it has simply been fitted with an aftermarket bodykit to make it look like an SV when, in fact, it is just a regular Aventador LP700-4. The most obvious giveaway that this isn’t an actual SV is the rear wing, which sits a little higher and is wider than the OEM wing.

Most of the damage is contained to the front end. Photos show that the aftermarket bumper and splitter have been broken, and one of the headlights has been knocked out of position. However, as Tavarish points out in a recent video of the car, the bodykit is made from fiberglass, so it’ll be much cheaper to repair or replace than if it was made from carbon fiber.
Unfortunately, the damage isn’t limited to the front end of the Aventador. The passenger side of the mid-engined supercar has also come into contact with something, and there is some severe scuffing on the skirt, quarter panel, and rear fender. A wheel has also been damaged, and the tire has been punctured. However, these parts should be easy and relatively cheap to replace in the grand scheme of things.

At the time of writing, bidding on the car was approaching the $100,000 mark. The Aventador has a salvage title and 26,315 miles (~42,300 km) under its belt.
While recently taking a look around the car at the Copart yard, Tavarish says he would love to convert the car to rear-wheel drive while also installing a six-speed gated manual transmission. If he does buy the Lamborghini, expect to see it featured on his channel.
