    Today we went to the Mercedes Benz Museum together with the Porsche museum. However, it was a very special day for Porsche as you might know... We even crossed Mr. Wiedekin leaving the building: what a symbol...
    Here are some other pictures, sorry for the non-Lamborghini ones, it was so tempting! I especially love the 904 that was in the repair shop.

    Then we had our 400km trip back, fantastic!

    You're right! The wipers are not properly set! A little weekend job for sure...

    Hi Raymond,

    Due to the language barrier ;-) I'm gonna go to the romand club. My german is not very fluent...
    I hope I can meet you one day!
    All the best,

    Ed.

    I had promised to share these photos way back on page 5 of this thread, and then somehow forgot all about it. :eek: I guess they are still relevant for this crowd, even if not recent.

    They were taken Sept 17th, 2006 at the Palos Verdes Concours in California. Apologies for the sun blowing out the quality of some of the photos. It was not the ideal time of day for taking pictures. The color is probably not for everyone, but I thought in combination with the white interior it made for a striking combination. I quite liked it!

    As most will know, this is the very recognizable #6643. The owner of the car at the time was listed as Perry Mansfield of San Diego, CA.

    Thanks for the pics. I miss my old car. :-( I believe Perry still owns it. At least he did at the time of the recent Hemmings article on the car.

    Beautiful car.


    I believe the Islero, is the most undervalued classic Lamborghini.

    The Islero is, so much car for the money - it has it all.

    It looks really GOOD!! The color scheme is very nice. What is the exact name of the color? Is it "Bronzo Chiaro"?
    You must be impatient to enjoy it.

    Amusing: I just sold my vintage 911 that was the same red as the one behind your Islero...

    The color is Bronzo Scurro, Dark Bronze. Yes I'm getting a bit impatient, but luckily I have a few other cars to drive.

    Especially with the vintage Roma plates, it adds a dolce vita appeal to the car. I love it!

    Hi everyone

    A few pictures taken this afternoon a couple of miles from my house. Aren't these roads inspiring? Perfect weather, perfect car to enjoy it!
    The only thing that misses is the sound! This V12 is amazing.

    Those in the know will recognize the "Villa Blanche" first signed building of Le Corbusier, hidden in the trees.

    And for Jota 5084, yes I put the wipers right!

    Best to all, enjoy summer...

    Very very nice Joe! One of the best color for the Islero.
