- Lamborghini's Miura has a charisma and mystique that quickens the pulse and is
different from every other car.
- This first comprehensive book on the model details what the cars were at
conception, their technical specification, the different variants, the history of
their development, their chassis numbers and build dates, the cars modified by the
works, restoration, ownership, and more.
- The author, who has owned and restored five SVs, interviewed all the principals
involved with the design and manufacture of the original Miura, and vetted the
research done since 1965.
- Beautifully illustrated with archival photos and new studio photography, this book
is as lush and beautiful as it is authoritative.
- A glamorous addition to a popular series, this book celebrates four of
Lamborghini's most sensational models:
- Miura
- Countach
- Diablo
- Murciélago
- The author takes us through the development of the Lamborghini V12 engine and on
to the creation of the Miura, one of the most breathtaking supercars of all time,
before moving on to analyse its exotic descendants.
- Superbly illustrated throughout, this book also covers some less predictable
topics, making it an essential purchase for every discerning Lamborghini
enthusiast.
- When the 495bhp Gallardo was launched in 2004, motoring journalists were
impressed.
- This stylish supercar combined the ferocity of Lamborghini with the polish and
practicality of Audi and, at around £115,000, didn't scorch the wallet quite as much
as its bigger brother, the Murciélago.
- Lamborghinis have always quickened the pulse, of course, and this book shows why.
- Packed with model analysis, driving impressions, technical specifications,
buying hints, personal anecdotes and sumptuous photographs, it tells the story of
this exotic marque that has always sought to beat Ferrari.
