The extraordinary Lamborghini Miura P400
The Lamborghini Miura P400 was born in 1966 from the creative audacity of three young engineers at Lamborghini: Gian Paolo Dallara, Paolo Stanzani, and Bob Wallace. These visionaries secretly developed a revolutionary chassis with a centrally-mounted V12 engine in a transverse position, an unprecedented configuration for a road car. The P400 project (Posteriore 4 litri) literally disrupted automotive conventions of the time.
Dressed by master coachbuilder Marcello Gandini at Bertone, the Miura displays lines of stunning beauty. Its low profile, retractable headlights, and perfect proportions instantly make it an icon of automotive design. The 3.9-liter V12 engine delivers 350 horsepower, allowing it to reach a top speed of 280 km/h, an exceptional performance for its time.
The commercial success was immediate. The Miura quickly became the symbol of the Italian supercar and has left a lasting impact on the global automotive industry. It established the aesthetic and technical codes that all future supercars would follow, marking a definitive entry into the modern era of high-performance automobiles.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?

What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
