Lamborghini Miura

[a.m.alfa]

[a.m.alfa]

The Lamborghini Miura is a sports car built in Italy by Lamborghini between 1966 and 1973. A mid-engined layout had been used successfully in competition, including by the Ford GT40 and Ferrari 250 LM at Le Mans. De Tomaso had produced a road car with this layout, the Vallelunga, but otherwise cars designed for the road were almost uniformly front-engined, rear drive vehicles. The Miura was a trendsetter, the one that made the mid-engined layout de rigueur among two-seater high performance supercars. It is named after the Spanish ranch Miura, whose bulls have a proverbial attack instinct.

Miura models :
2.1 P400
Early Miuras, known internally as P400s, were powered by a 3.9 L version of the famous Lamborghini V12 engine mounted transversely and producing 350 hp (260 kW). 275 P400s were produced between 1966 and 1969, a success for Lamborghini despite its then-steep $20,000 USD price (approx. $114,000 in today's terms). The original Miura engines had the gearbox in the sump of the engine, and the gearbox shared the engine oil for lubrication. This necessitated frequent and consistent oil changes.

2.2 P400S
P400S
The P400S Miura, also known as the Miura S, made its introduction at the Turin Motorshow in November 1968, where the original chassis was introduced 3 years earlier. It was slightly revised from the P400 with its newly added power windows, bright chrome trim around external windows, new overhead inline console with new rocker switches, minor revision engine internals, notched trunk end panels(allowing for slightly more luggage space). Engine changes were good for an additional 20bhp. Other revisions were limited to creature comforts, such as glove box door, reversed position of cigarette lighter and windshield wiper switch and single release handles for front and rear body sections. 338 P400S Miuras were produced between Dec 1968 and March 1971....
 
2.3 P400SV
The last and most famous Miura, the P400SV or Miura SV featured different cam timing, bigger valves and altered carbs, which increased fuel consumption so much that the factory offered a larger 110 litre fuel tank as an option. These gave the engine an additional 15 bhp, to 385. The engine also had a split sump, in that the gearbox now had its lubrication system separate from the engine, which allowed the use of the appropriate types of oil for the gearbox and the engine. The SV can be distinguished from its predecessors from its lack of "eyebrows" over the headlights and wider fenders to accommodate the new 9-inch wide wheels and Pirelli Cinturato tires. 150 SVs were produced, including one that was owned by Frank Sinatra.

2.4 P400 Jota
This one-off Miura (#747) was the development of Lamborghini Development Driver Bob Wallace in 1972, and only one was built initially as a powerful test mule for future Miuras. Lamborghini were forced to sell this car off due to financial problems in the late seventies. In 1980, upon delivery, the driver and a passenger totalled this particular model and survived without any injuries. Lamborghini has since built a replica of this car
2.5 P400 SVJ
Once customers heard about the Jota, they requested their own "Jota" Miura called the SVJ, and so only 5 were built, all of which still exist.

One of the most high profile model was the Metallic Red Burgundy model (#4934), former property to that of the one of the company's best customer, HIH the Shah of Iran Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, he stored this car under armed guard with another SV in Royal Palace in Tehran.

Later, as he fled the country during the Iranian Islamic Revolution, the car with many others were seized by the Iranian government and was later sold into Dubai in 1995. In 1997 this car was sold via a Brooks auction to Nicholas Cage, at US$490,000, becoming the marque's highest ever price sold in an auction. Cage has since sold the car in 2002
 
2.6 Roadster
Another one-off, the Miura Roadster (actually more of a targa-model, but without any removable roof) was built as a publicity stunt. After having been exhibited at several auto salons the car was sold to a group of companies in the metal business who turned it into a display-vehicle showcasing the possibilities of using their various metal alloys in cars. The car still exists today and has been frequently replicated

2.7 P400 SVJ Spider
This version of the Miura was actually displayed in 1981 at the Geneva Motor Show by Lamborghini, shortly after the new CEO Patrick Mimran took over the factory. The car was actually the yellow Miura S presented at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show, reconstructed in 1980 in Spider by the Swiss Lamborghini Importer, Lambomotor AG. The Miura SVJ Spider was displayed on the Lamborghini stand with the other 1981 new models (Jalpa and LM002), equipped with wide wheels and a rear wing, in the context of the marque's revival, it was considered as a prototype for a possible limited series of Miura Spider.

2006 Miura concept



A Lamborghini Miura concept car was presented at the Museum of Radio and Television on January 5, 2006 alongside the Los Angeles Auto Show, though it was not present at the show itself. Instead, the Miura officially debuted at the North American International Auto Show two weeks later. It was the first design by new Lamborghini chief, Walter de'Silva, and commemorates the 1966 introduction of the original Miura in Geneva.

A production version would share its chassis with the Audi R8, itself a modification of the Lamborghini Gallardo's platform. The likely 6.5 L V12 engine would be mounted longitudinally rather than transverse as on the original Miura, giving it a name of "LP650". The DSG from the Bugatti Veyron is the likely transmission. Quattro all wheel drive is also a likely component. It has also been rumored to will have the 6 liter W12 shared with the the Audi A8 and Bentley Continental GT and Flying Spur

Btw, ova nova miura je katastrofa i napravili su totalnu glupost kaj se toga tice. Postoji samo jedna miura i to je ona prava, original.

The car presented here is production number 194. It began production on June 11, 1968 and was delivered new to Lamborato of Torino, Italy. The car left the factory painted Bianco (white) and had Skay Seneape (mustard) interior. After Lamborato’s ownership the car was painted red and made its way to the US. In 1974 car collector Jim Foust acquired the car. In an interview Jim said “I’ve had a lot of cars, but I have to say that Miura was by far my favorite”! It remained with Jim for the next 32 years. He drove it on a regular basis and under his ownership the car was painted orange, but retained its original interior. A major engine out service was also performed. Jim sold the car in 2006 to the current owner. Restoration In 2007 under the current ownership the decision was made to restore 3571. DriverSource of Houston performed the restoration which was completed in June 2008. This comprehensive restoration included all new interior in black leather, new paint in Fly Yellow, all new suspension, wheels refurbished, and new tires. Today the car shows and drives well. Recently it garnered much attention at its first concours the 2008 Keels and Wheels Concour d’Elagance, and has been invited to show at the 2008 Meadow Brook Concour d’Elegance.

Lamborghini Latinoamérica SA sprema novu Miuru

AKO niste znali, na svijetu pored onog talijanskog postoji još jedan Lamborghini.

Tijekom godina proizvođač superautomobila iz Sv. Agate je često mijenjao vlasništvo, a jedan od vlasnika je bila i indonezijska kompanija MegaTech koja je, zahvaljujući nedostaku sredstava, ustupila prava na korištenje imena Lamborghini meksičkom poduzetniku Jorgeu Garciji. Time je Garcia mogao proizvoditi svoje koncepte, kao i model Diablo, čak i nakon što je ovaj povučen iz prodaje.

Lamborghini Latinoamérica SA sada sprema nove modele. Prije svega namjera im je proizvesti novu inačicu modela Miura, koju bi nazvali Miura II. Vjerujemo kako će ovo biti rukavica u lice originalnom Lamborghiniju i njegovom vlasniku, VW Grupi, koji ionako nije oduševljen postojanjem latinoameričke verzije.

Naime, originalna Miura je automobil za kojega mnogi tvrde kako je bio ispred svog vremana i kako je upravo taj automobil učinio Lamborghini svjetski poznatim. Radi se o modelu koji je takoreći započeo trend supersportskih dvosjeda sa središnje smještenim motorom i koji je bio prava pljuska Ferrariju.

Na kraju dodajmo i kako su u Lamborghini Latinoamérica SA najavili i kako će proizvesti 4X4 SUV pod nazivom Great Bull, duhovnog nasljednika Lamborghinijevog LM002
