    I love how the kids are looking without touching. You don't see that very often.

    To many adults don't understand: "Please look, but don't touch!"

    It's bad enough seeing a Miura bent out of shape but even worse seeing it being presumably towed like that!
    I guess back in the day that's what they did for better or worse.

    One of the nicest early Miura's I think I've seen. Love the blue with the lighter coloured interior. Any more info/pics on this particular machine?

    UK 3027 Miura Register, but not 100% sure. Checked registration with Colin Clarke's records and we think it still has the same registrations but do not know where it is now, was sold by dealers Straight Eight and disappeared

    great info on that beauty gents, thanks.

    Good to know that we have another nice Miura after the Rod Stewart car left. Anyone know where it was sold to?

    I recall this Miura well, as it was the first car I bid on when it came to auction at Coys in London in 2006. Here are a few photos I took at the time. It had a few interesting features -- notably the radio in the door -- and I believe the late great Bob Wallace did some engine work.

    I think there is also a wonderful picture somewhere of this car on a trailer being towed by the owner's LM002. True class.
