"A brand-new and thoroughly original edition is born. A special edition Aventador Coupé which pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Miura, the historic forerunner to Lamborghini's V12 super sports cars, through a design which combines history and style. With only 50 units to be made, the Aventador Miura Homage proves that Automobili Lamborghini looks to the future without forgetting its roots." – Lamborghini.
The Aventador was launched at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, replacing the ageing Murcièlago as Lamborghini's flagship model. Designed by Filippo Perini, the new mid-engine coupé borrowed heavily from Lamborghini's limited edition Reventón and its Estoque concept car. One of its more striking features was the scissor doors - a 21st Century supercar 'must have'.
Like its predecessors, the newcomer was powered by a V12 engine, in the Aventador's case an all-new 6½-litre unit producing 690bhp. Power reached the ground via a seven-speed semi-automatic gearbox and electronically controlled four-wheel drive transmission. A top speed of 359km/h (217mph) was claimed by the factory, yet the French
Sport Auto
magazine managed to wind 'their' car up to 370km/h (230mph).
Since the original's arrival, this is one of the most exclusive special editions offered. According to its maker: "The Aventador Miura Homage was created by the Lamborghini Ad Personam Studio with even the smallest details inspired by the Miura: the single-colour upper part of the body, available in the Miura's original 18 colours, contrasts with the lower part available in gold or matte silver. The Miura logo in black steel on the side, the Limited Edition plate inside the vehicle and the Miura 50th logo sewn onto the upper part of the seats all clearly define the exclusive character of the Aventador Miura Homage."
This car was purchased new from the Lamborghini main dealer in Sydney, Australia and is one of a believed six right-hand drive examples. The Aventador was purchased via a specialist Australian motor dealer in May 2017 (sales invoice on file) and imported into the UK in August 2017 with taxes paid, since when it has been professionally stored with DK Engineering. Unused and never driven, the car comes with an exterior cover; covers for the seats and steering wheel; two keys; a battery charger/conditioner; its original instruction books; and manufacturer's warranty valid until June 2020.
