Car and Driver|July - August 2023
Driving eight Lamborghinis in a single day leads to an unexpected infatuation with a scissor-door hero of yore.

The Devil's in the Details

It was late in the day when the Miura caught fire. Someone was sitting in it with the engine off and the key in the on position, assuming the car would be happy to keep the V-12's fans running. It also kept the fuel pump running, so when the car was eventually started, the overfull carbs burped out fuel onto the hot exhaust manifolds. Much yelling in Italian ensued as nearby Lamborghini mechanics initiated a 20-yard sprint that might have qualified them for an Olympic event involving running with fire extinguishers. They got the budding conflagration snuffed before damage was done, but after that, the car went into a trailer, not to be seen again. If you ever get to drive eight Lamborghinis in one day, try to snag the Miura first.
