The Lamborghini Miura was born at the 1965 Turin Motor Show where a bodiless P400 chassis was put on display.
Nuccio Bertone saw the chassis and offered Ferruccio Lamborghini a body for his creation. The resulting Lamborghini Miura, designed by Bertone's Marcello Gandini, was shown at the Geneva Motor Show the next year.
The public liked the Miura so much that Lamborghini decided to put the Miura into production - somewhat hurriedly. Early Miura's suffered from mild defects and 'niggles', worst of which was a tendency for front end lift at high speed. However these problems were gradually eased on later models.
The Miura is a purist supercar, and as such lacks any home comforts like air conditioning or a radio - besides the engine noise would have drowned out anything the radio had to offer.
