    I beg forgiveness...

    I recall that I once made another mistake. I was 16 at the time :)

    When you restore the cars properly, you can make the brakes work, even using the original equipment. My 4884 has better brakes than when it left the factory - of course nothing like a modern car's.

    Thats a different lime green P400S. Not an uncommon color on a Miura.

    It has brakes... they feel ...vintage, but they work ! I locked the wheels on mine, at 80km/h, while testing it... of course you'll have to 'jump' on the pedal....with both feet !!! ;-)

    If that's the case...
    In my dreams I would have my Miura S repainted verde ithaca... and would happily be subject to the slings and arrows of the factory spec crowd. :)

    Thats OK, youre probably covered: I note 4 different shades/paint codes for the Miura ranging in name variously from "Verde" to "Verde Chiaro" to "Verde Miura". Just tell them its one of those :)
