Lamborghini Miura has been re-released under Lamborghini Miura from what I have seen and the definitive analysis of lamborghini's first sensation V12 by Coltrin and Marchet,published 1982,Osprey. from what I have seen,mine has the title Lamborghini Miura the definitive analysis of Lamborghini's first sensational V12. I also know that Mercurial Manuals has re-released this book recently and available as new from what I know in the UK and it's the exact same book,same pages different ISBN.
The book is a small yet jam-packed and up until the book's release and what was known then pretty detailed and informative,there is a small section of great color photos,the rest is all black and white photos.great interior shots,pre-production prototypes,the ZN Car and my favorite a Chapter on "Special Miuras" which feature my favorite The Hahne Jota SVR.While there is a new more up to date and some say better detailed and informative(per Joe Sackey who authored Lamborghini Miura Bible.,an Excellent book which I own.)this book is worth having has it is as far am Concerned the First book on Just the Miura as far as known. It is affordable either as a Used book ,I got my great condition book for thirteen dollars shipped.Or you can get a exact reprint of the book new(nothing amended to or revised though)by Mercurial Manuals.You won't lose reading this little UK Published Gem of a book on the First Supercar(Not the GT40 as that's a Lola inspired car,For me though the Corvette,Cheetah,Chaparral then the Iso and Bizzarrini,then the Miura are worthy of the title the First Supercar.) If you're a Lamborghini Lover,Dreamer or Miura fanatic you need to own Peter Coltrin Cuneo(UK Expat,who sadly died before he could see the book published)and Marchet who had and would go own to do more Lamborghini books.
