Whereas its predecessors, the Miura, was sensual and muscular, the Lamborghini Countach was a futuristic razor edged wedge, that at the time its launch, you could believe had just roared out of the hyperactive imagination of a sci-fi writer with a particular obsession for automotive speed and excellence. Like the Miura, its V 12 engine [...]
The Silhouette and Jalpa were conceived by Lamborghini’s new mid 1970s owners to tackle the big selling Ferrari 308 GTS head on. They weren’t new cars, instead they borrowed from the Urraco Lamborghini’s baby super car of the early 1970s.
