1968 Lamborghini Miura P400:
Just 275 examples of the P400 were built between 1966 and 1969 with a further 338 P400S and 150 P400SV. Production number 123 left the factory on February 2, 1968. The immaculate restoration of this car has been seven years in the doing, with a small specialist firm in Canada handling the chassis, bodywork, and trim.
