Kyosho Lamborghini Miura SVR 1970 1:18 schwarz rot

Englische Beschreibung:

Among the series of supercars that were being produced from the late 1960s, one of the most deified is the Lamborghini Jota (referred to in-house simply as ‘J’). Lamborghini development engineer and chief test driver, Bob Wallace, built the Jota around an uprated Miura in 1970 as a one-off in accordance with FIA race regulations with an engine equipped with a dry sump that produced over 400ps. With its wider body and comprehensive weight reduction, the Jota was fitted with different specifications to the Miura such as riveted panels and fixed headlights. After 20,000km of test milage, the Jota was sold to a racing team owner, but was unable to take delivery as the Jota was scrapped after an irreparable accident in 1971. However, many people had become aware of the Jota’s existence and requests continued for supply. More than 10 replicas have been created so far, including body modifications at Lamborghini headquarters. One of these is the ‘Miura SVR’ which features a wider body than the original Jota and an aftermarket roof wing. Imported in 1976 in the middle of the supercar boom, this model is still owned in Japan and featured in the hit manga series ‘Circuit Wolf’ and continues to appear at car shows and automotive media nationwide. The Jota SVR has been undergoing restoration and modification for a year and a half at ‘Polo Storico’ (Lamborgini’s heritage center) and has been returned to excellent condition.
