Dont have a chassis number but I note how many P400 & S are using SV wheels these days.

 

The green Miura in the video is #4142, and was assembled and completed by Bobileff Motor Company in San Diego in 2011.

My god the SV is a thing of beauty.

 

Andrew:

Are you referring to the SV in general? If so I truly agree!

If you are referring to the lime green car in the video, that is not an SV, it is a P400S.

PS - Spoke to your dad yesterday, what a guy. He needs an SV

 

There might be a Miura hidden for decades in my native town of Zagreb, Croatia. My brother saw a Miura with Zagreb plates back in 1980. and I heard a rumour or two since. Now a car collector told me that he saw it and that he might be able to add it to his collection within next few months. Sounds impossible but there are still such hidden gems.

Lamborghini had a Yugoslavian office in '70s and it was located in Zagreb. Are there any factory data with number of cars sold by country? I know only of one Espada that is in Serbia since '70s but don't know whether that car was sold new by Lamborghini Yugoslavian office.

 

Hello Mr Sackey and Lamborghini Chatters of course. Does anybody know the story and the s/n of this S(V)?

Thank you all in advance

I'm afraid I don't know the chassis number! But this pic is from years ago...

If you liked the Miura book http://joesackey.com/the-lamborghini-miura-bible/ Ive just shipped off the entire manuscript for the 288 GTO book to the publisher. What a relief! I only mention it here because so many have said that the Miura is their favorite Lamborghini and the 288 GTO their favorite Ferrari, and I'm surprised how many like (& even own) both.

I think Veloce will have it out in time for summer, and this one will go French & German (as well as English) like the Miura book did, but will be produced in larger quantities because the Ferrari market is far larger. As with my private classic car facilitation business, the Ferrari Supercar (GTO/F40/F50/Enzo) business is 5 times that of the Lamborghini business. Accordingly, the publisher is hopeful that numbers will correspond. Anyway, I'm pleased with the content and I think anyone who enjoyed the Miura book will enjoy this one too.

Does not surprise me that there are Miuras is obscure locations. Keep us posted of this story.

 

...good luck for a successful production and response !

 

Good luck with "The Book of the Ferrari 288 GTO", Joe. My favorite classic road Ferraris are the Dino 246, Daytona and last but not least the Boxer 512 which shares equal first place with the Miura SV as my favorite 2 cars ever. Do you have any plans for a book on any of these in the future?

 

Focusing on the GTO book for now. The books compliment my business as they correspond with the cars I deal in.

 

Thank you!

 

I should say thank you Steve!

 

Having enjoyed, and still enjoying, your book on the 'first supercar' very much I'm looking forward to reading your book on the 'first hypercar'.

 

Come now you must do a Countach book.......we are all waiting !

 

Thank you Steve.

The books (Miura & now GTO) were important for me to do and are a result of my passion for the cars, research & photography. I realize that books last forever. Car deals come & go!

 

Alan: I completely understand. When the GTO book is published I will have one Lamborghini book and one GTO book. Doing the Miura book first was by design as it is Lamborghini's benchmark original Supercar. Even as a Countach lover myself, I really think the Miura is Lamborghini's most important road-going car to date, and the prices that Miuras (especially SVs) bring clearly justify that sentiment. Perhaps one day a Countach book will follow, but not for a while yet.
