our REVIEW

Back in the late Eighties, this was the book to have on Lamborghini, it was cleary written, had loads of photos, mainly in color, and told the story from the start, the troubles Ferruccio ran into and the masterpieces he created in Sant'Agata.

Even today, this is still one of the most important books in my collection, truly a must-have in my opinion.
