The Murciélago: the embodiment of Italian power

Launched in **2001 by Lamborghini**, the Murciélago represented the brand's revival under the Audi umbrella. Succeeding the legendary Diablo, this supercar was powered by a **6.2-liter V12 engine** developing over 570 horsepower, capable of propelling the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds.

The racing version of the Murciélago, specially prepared for endurance competitions, benefited from significant aerodynamic modifications and drastic weight reduction. Its **carbon fiber chassis** and track-specific suspension made it a formidable competitor on Europe's most demanding circuits.

This participation in the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps was part of Lamborghini's strategy to demonstrate the reliability and performance of its models in the most extreme conditions. The Belgian circuit, renowned for its technical difficulties and changing weather conditions, was a true life-size testing laboratory.

Lamborghini: the art of Italian performance

Founded in 1963 by Ferruccio Lamborghini, the bull brand was born from the desire to create sports cars capable of rivaling Ferrari. From the very beginning, Lamborghini distinguished itself through its revolutionary approach to automotive design and the adoption of cutting-edge technologies.

In the early 2000s, when the Murciélago was created, Lamborghini underwent a renaissance under the leadership of Audi. This German-Italian alliance allowed the brand to benefit from **considerable technical resources** while preserving its unique stylistic identity. The Murciélago perfectly symbolizes this synthesis of Italian tradition and technological innovation.

Lamborghini's involvement in motor racing, particularly in endurance races such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans , demonstrates the brand's desire to demonstrate its technical capabilities in the sporting arena. These participations also allow the development of technologies that then benefit production models.

The Belgian epic: when the Murciélago takes on Spa-Francorchamps

The 2007 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps will be remembered as one of the most competitive editions of this legendary event. The circuit in the Belgian Ardennes, more than 7 kilometers long, represents one of the most formidable challenges on the European motor racing calendar with its iconic corners such as Eau Rouge and Blanchimont.

The number 28 Lamborghini Murciélago, driven by the Menten-Kox-Bleekemolen trio, faced fierce competition from Porsche 911 GT3s, Ferrari 430 GTCs, and Aston Martin DBR9s. The entry of experienced drivers like former Formula 1 driver Peter Kox and endurance racing specialist Jeroen Bleekemolen demonstrated the Lamborghini team's serious ambitions.

This participation was part of a broader approach by Lamborghini to develop its **Super Trofeo**, a single-make championship that would become one of the most prestigious series in the world. The lessons learned from these endurance races will contribute directly to the improvement of future models in the range, particularly in terms of aerodynamics and engine cooling.

The unique atmosphere of Spa-Francorchamps, with its unpredictable weather conditions and demanding technical configuration, made every lap a challenge for the drivers. The Murciélago, with its unmistakable naturally aspirated V12 sound, offered a breathtaking spectacle to the thousands of spectators gathered in the Ardennes forests.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to understand the scales of miniatures?

Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.

Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.

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).

Does the model car come with protection?

Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.

How is my package protected during transport?

We package each order with the utmost care: bubble wrap, appropriate cushioning, and polystyrene. Your model car is perfectly secure during its journey.

What is the delivery time?

In-stock items are shipped within 24-48 hours. Please allow 2-3 business days for France via Colissimo or 4-5 days via Mondial Relay.

The model car is no longer in stock, when will you have it?

It's impossible for me to know exactly when I'll receive a new stock because I receive arrivals in dribs and drabs. Please contact me so I can keep you informed as soon as it's available.
