Detroit Motor Show - Lamborghini

Is that a Miura?
Yes, a modern-day Miura that celebrates the 40th anniversary of one of the motoring world's most famous and beautiful cars.

It looks great in the pictures, but seeing it up close really shows how well designer Walter de' Silva has updated the car, yet kept it faithful to the original.

Like the new Ford GT40 that's inspired by the Le Mans-winning GT, the Miura concept is contemporary and retro at the same time.

How quick is it?
Depends how hard you can push at this stage. There's no engine inside, and no theoretical figures produced for how quick it might go with, for instance, the Gallardo's 492bhp 5.0-litre V10 on board.

Rest assured, though – Lamborghini wouldn't want it overtaken by a Ford Fiesta ST, so any car that does hit the road will have blistering pace.

When I can buy one?
Well, even if Lamborghini does decide to build limited numbers of the car, you're probably already at the back of the queue (unless you already own a few Lamborghinis).

Chances are you'd also have to sell your house, and possibly someone else's, to afford one.
