That is a mess. Did it come out the factory with panel gaps like that? I can't figure out what is going on with that bonnet. Is it partly open at the back?

Bumper is moved forward as well............

One of fifty.

Great spot
Original Muira - Awesome - black was the WORST colour possible for this classic IMO
The other thing - YUCH!! - No thanks - not even if it was given to me in the best color.
Just leave the original alone - PLEASE - PLEASE PLEASE.

Just spotted this Stratos between Verbania and Baveno by Lake Maggiore. I think it is the "periscopo" variant but can't say whether original or replica.

Sorry for the abysmal picture quality:

I think that might be Simon Kidston's car, happy to be corrected though.

[TR4man]

Yes, I think that you are right in that SK does have a black one. The only thing against that is that I'm sure he is Geneva based and I think the car in the photo has UK plates?

As an aside, are the pop-up headlights broken? They seem to be neither fully up or down - sort of halfway in between.

[P5BNij]

Didn't know he was based in Geneva.

As for the headlights, it looks to me like they're in the fully raised position but need to compare them with other photos.

Edit - just checked Pete Coltrin and Jean-Francois Marchet's Miura book and they're in the fully raised position... the actual filaments must be mounted at an angle within the light units.

Good Muira spot - shame it wasn't in a better location, surely they could have found a decent photogenic spot- and got a car in red/yellow/orange/blue, or lime green.
Agree with other poster about the other 'thing' too.

Must have been an original: if it was a fake, it would have crashed before you had a chance to take a photo!

Location isn't bad actually, I was just trying to be a bit covert with taking the pics
