Lamborghinis would never go out of style and when one of them is the only piece of its style imagine what a ruckus it could create. The Lamborghini Bertone Miura Roadster is a collector’s dream collectible and many a tear would be shed at the Kidston auction house in Switzerland when it is given away to the highest bidder.
The original car is a special feature at the 1968 Brussels Salon and the only reason why this beauty never hit the streets is because of a ‘stress-tolerance difficulty’ in its windshield design. But who cares about a broken windshield when the design of the car leaves grown men gasping for breath? The Lamborghini Bertone Miura Roadster has spent the previous years as a showpiece item at the International Lead and Zinc Research Organization (ILZRO) and at museums or private collections. After travelling all over the world without never actually having been driven, the Lamborghini may soon get to burn tyres in the careful hands of a loyal and filthy rich fan.
The Lamborghini Bertone Miura Roadster has undergone a renovation that cost Kidston only $330 to prepare for it for the auction. After coming in second at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, this Lamborghini is one car aficionados wouldn’t forget for a long time.
