#1, My guess is that, like any car with a lazy owner, it broke down and they didn't feel like footing the bill to fix it so it remained in what appears to be some sort of dank stone structure for years. Probably just some douchebag collector who only picked it up as a status symbol. |

The sad thing is now it will probably cost more to restore than a very nice running example would cost - hopefully it's rarity will save it. |

#6, Not to my knowledge. Actually, I think they never raced, either, never were homologated for any kind of competition. The only attempt I know of to race Miuras were the Jotas.

I'm guessing this one is in a third-world country somewhere. |

"Correct me if I am wrong, but I vaguely remember reading about this Muira a while ago.
It has been holed up in an old stone shed or outbuilding in Athens for many years.
Every attempt to purchase the car has failed and the car is in complete but very neglected condition.
The front bumper arrangement was a "one off" for this car as it was originally (when new) used to promote Playboy or Penthouse in some sort of rally.
The vast majority of Muiras are well documented throughout the Lamborghini fraternity, so I am sure that after a while, someone from there will respond with a more creditable and up to date answer.
In the meantime, I think it is one of the saddest and most sobering images that I have ever seen on the internet.
Keep up the great work." |
