Lamborghini Miura - Classic Italian Exotic Sports Car
As part of my ongoing quest to document every interesting car I come across on eBay, this page is dedicate to this 1969 Lamborghini Miura P400 S (link no longer available).
Before Lamborghini went way over the top with cars like the Countach and the Diablo, the Miura was typical of Lamborghini design: head-turning but elegant. This particular 1969 Lamborghini Miura is a P400 S with a V12 engine. It is restored, but not to original condition. Instead, it features many modern upgrades that allow this classic sports car to keep up with modern exotics. These upgrades include springs, a new fuel cell, seatbelts, cooling fans, and SV wheels.
I'd grade this auction an 8 out of 10. They include lots of great pictures and tell what needs to be told, such as the fact that the car is well-documented with receipts that pile over an inch thick (documentation is very important for classic cars). They don't go into too much detail about the car, which is too bad because there are a lot of details with these types of cars. The listing itself is a bit boring, but at least it doesn't attract from the car being listed.
**UPDATE**
Bidding on this car reached $375,100, but that failed to match the seller's reserve price.
