  • 1969 Lamborghini Miura S Chassis Number 3961
    1969 Lamborghini Miura S Chassis number 3961 Ferruccio Lamborghini had hired two young and very talented engineers to create his cars and complement the marvellous V12 engine of Bizzarrini. With the early success of the 350 GT and 400 GT he now gave the promising skills of Giampaolo Dollara and Giampaolo Stanzani their head. Taking their inspiration from two-seater sports racing cars rather than from Grand Tourers, the two young men (Dallara at the time was just 28) created in essence a road-going race car. They took the initial innovative step in sitting the four-litre V12 Lamborghini 400 GT engine transversely mounted behind the driver. The chassis needed to be strong but light and to do this they made it out of bent welded sheet metal that had been drilled with holes. Ferruccio approved the project without a moment’s hesitation and the chassis was hurriedly completed to be exhibited at the October 1965 Turin Motor Show. All it needed now was a body. Nuccio Bertone, Head of the radical thinking Carrozzeria Bertone based in Turin, saw the concept and volunteered to build the body to sit on the revolutionary chassis. A wonderful relationship between Lamborghini and Bertone, and the Miura was born. Bertone turned to 26 year old Marcello Gandini, an interior designer, and his first project for the Carrozzeria was to interpret and fulfil his new boss’s vision. It was the clarity of thinking, unfettered by tradition, that led Gandini and Bertone to create the Miura November 1968 saw the arrival of the Miura S.

First: this is a heavy, robust tome of 360 pages. The cover is luxuriant and well bound, the pages are glossy and thick, and the photos are clear and plentiful. Second: the content matches the appearance. This is not a one and done read... I can see myself not only reading this cover to cover, but using it for reference material and evening reminiscing. Valentino has experienced a life well lived and it has been excellently documented in both detail and warmth here. While I have never met him, I did for a while have a Gallardo with his autograph on the engine bay. In that car, I felt surrounded by legend, luxury, and power.

  • The Lamborghini Tamer. from Bob Wallace To
    The Lamborghini tamer. From Bob Wallace to Giorgio Sanna via Valentino Balboni: how the work of the test driver has changed over the last 50 years at the House of the Bull. There is no shadow of a doubt that, in the collective imagination, being a “Lamborghini tamer” is one of the world’s most appealing jobs. It isn’t just a question of passing the time driving great cars, but also of helping create them alongside their designers, working with them to develop the immediately identifiable features that have kept the flag of the “House of the Bull” flying high for the last 50 years. Giorgio Sanna arrived in Sant’Agata Bolognese in 2001 as one of the leading members, with Mario Fasanetto, of the House of the Bull’s test team. That same year the new position of test driver was created. Directly involved in the car development process, the test drivers of the new millennium have the task of documenting their driving experience to provide prompt feedback for the engineers involved in the development of prototypes. This requires experience, great skill and the ability to follow test programmes and report on their outcome with precision. The great test drivers of the past weren’t involved in R&D and today it really does seem like such a long time ago when Bob Wallace and Valentino Balboni, in addition to their technical duties, often acted as “driving instructors” for customers anxious to learn about the handling secrets of the magnificent supercars they were in the process of buying.

  • Bollettino March 2010 Ciao from Lamborghini
    LAMBORGHINI BOLLETTINO MARCH 2010 CIAO FROM LAMBORGHINI Dear Partners, This month we bring you exciting news from Lamborghini. First, we are officially unveiling the newest super sports car in the Lamborghini line: the Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera. This “superlight” Gallardo was just introduced at the Geneva Motor Show and is an exciting addition to the successful Gallardo line. Continuing Lamborghini’s commitment to responsibly develop new super cars, solar panels were recently installed on the roof of the Lamborghini factory in Sant’Agata, Bolognese. These panels will reduce the factory’s CO2 emissions by 30 percent, and will go hand-in-hand with future product development. This month we are also celebrating the opening of our newest franchised dealership in North America, Lamborghini Sarasota. Lastly, the Super Trofeo is back for another season in Europe this summer. A calendar for the race series can be found in this newsletter. As always, thank you for your support of the Lamborghini brand. Kindest regards, Pietro Frigerio Chief Operating Officer Automobili Lamborghini America, LLC IN PRIMO PIANO FEATURE STORY LAMBORGHINI REVEALS GALLARDO LP 570-4 SUPERLEGGERA AT GENEVA MOTOR SHOW On March 1, Automobili Lamborghini unveiled its newest vehicle, the Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera, to crowds at the Geneva International Motor Show. The “superlight” vehicle features updated technologies and materials from its predecessor, the Gallardo Superleggera, which was introduced in 2007 and sold an impressive 618 units in its first year. The LP 570-4 Superleggera features a V10 5.2-liter engine that generates 570 horsepower. With a power-to-weight ratio of only 5.18 lbs-per-hp, the Superleggera dashes from zero to 62 miles per hour in just 3.4 seconds, and reaches a top speed of 202 mph.
