    Thanks for sharing these.

    As built for Hubert Hahne this car had 3 features that other SVJs didn't: the aforementioned 110-liter long-range fuel tank, the Jota badge and the rear valance with hexagonal pattern (as shown below). I can see the rear valance is now gone, yet another classic Lamborghini that has fallen victim to the "can't leave well enough alone" syndrome that seems to afflict many car collectors..

    At any rate, it still looks great.

    I drove this car -almost!- flat on the German Autobahn between Bonn and Cologne in 2000 with the Japanese borker who inspected the car on behalve of the later owner.

    The chap from the land of Rising Sun was speechless at that speed...::))

    Ciao!

    What's the difference between a pretty girl and a Miura? The Miura will look beautiful throughout its lifetime. ;)

    . . . and based on my experiences, a Miura will set you back almost twice as much!

    Mmm, red Miura SV in the UK. Now which one is yours I wonder, appears to have a small front plate. Any more photos?

    Well, that depends on if you decide to repaint it. Say, lime green?

    Is that the same red SV that was formerly owned by Jay Kay?

    Wouldn't know, hadn't had the time to ask the owner. Licence plate is OAW-842 (if it's any help).
