“You have to lift a red catch like they have on fighter jets in order to press the starter button. Who doesn’t want to pretend they’re a fighter pilot every morning?”
We burnt off the calories traipsing back up to the Urus. Starting this beast is an exercise in embarrassment and smugness at the same time: the former because it’s so bloody loud when you start it, the latter because it’s so bloody loud when you start it. You think: “Oh no, don’t look at me. Oh, go on then, look at me.” It’s not like a McLaren or Ferrari, which demand serious, snooty appreciation: you can’t help but smile when you see a Lamborghini. It’s such an unapologetic brand.
Portloe is a tiny hamlet crunched and stuffed into a sharp, tumbling valley that topples into a rocky cove lashed by waves. Fishermen launch their boats from the slipway every morning, and lobster pots block the road at the top. This isn’t a sanitised village for tourists. The Lugger juts out over the water, and serves a fantastic menu of chowder and line-caught mackerel, with a snug for winter evenings and the coastal path heading in each direction from its door.
Our reason for heading to St Just in Roseland was its church. I reviewed it for “The Nation’s Top 100 Churches” in20 years ago, and it was the easy winner: a small stone building butting up against a brown tidal creek, boats moored against the churchyard wall, gravestones and palm trees peppering the hillside. A micro climate pervades, and turns this magical spot into a unique habitat. Whether you’re a believer is irrelevant: everyone leaves spellbound.
It was possibly the only time I wished the Urus would just creep away in stealth mode rather than exploding into life, but you can’t stay angry with a Lamborghini for long, when it’s so clearly also manna from heaven.
