As I understand it this is not a normal car dealer. This is run something along the lines of an investment porfolio with private investors putting up the money and having limited access to the cars. As you can see they only deal in cars which are hugely expensive and which normal dealers would struggle to purchase. Is anyone on here a member, or perhaps Mr Kidston himself, can you explain how it works? That said he hasn't got a Countach or an Interceptor.....bit of a glaring schoolboy error if you ask me!

Mr Kidston does have the last ever Muira built that is signed by Ferruccio on the centre console, colour black with white leather a stunning car and has for many years been doing a Muira register. I can say Mr Kidston has a real passion for Lamborghini... thumbup

The picture of the two chaps on the website includes Simon Kidston's (grand?)father Glen Kidston and Woolf Barnato, both of great Bentley Boy's fame, back when racing drivers were proper heroes and not just walking advertising hoardings!

The final Miura has been here in the UK very frequently - there is something about it, even more than just any 'other' Miura, maybe it's more than just the black paint, maybe it's even more than Ferrucios signature!

I was reading that Joe Sackey is restoring the first Miura ever made which has actually never had a shell. It was and still is just a chassis with engine and wheels and it has stayed that way since it was released at show all those years ago.
