Out of curiosity is service a nightmare on the Miura?
Yes and no. It is a fairly simple machine (minimal electronics to break in strange ways). If you are willing to go under the hood yourself and are skilled, it is not a problem. I don’t trust most mechanics, particularly for the exotics. The biggest problem is breakage and availability of parts. Lamborghini of that year were all slightly different even if they were sequential serial numbers. The parts were built close to spec and then ‘hand fitted’. Getting around the engine on this one is fairly easy. Its a small V12 mounted transversely and virtually the whole back tilts up to give you access.
