Lamborghini Polo Storico on Display at Auto e Moto d’Epoca 2024

SANT’AGATA BOLOGNESE (October 24, 2024) – For the second consecutive year Automobili Lamborghini attends the Auto e Moto d’Epoca show at the Bologna Fairgrounds. Representing the House of Sant’Agata Bolognese with a dedicated stand will be Lamborghini Polo Storico, the department responsible for preserving and promoting the brand’s history by managing the company archives, carrying out vehicle restoration, and certifying classic Lamborghinis up to the last series of Diablo. An important point of reference for enthusiasts and collectors from around the world, Polo Storico is showing the body of a 1968 Miura S undergoing restoration, and a 1994 Diablo SE. Lamborghini icons in their own right, these two models are also significant examples of the work of Polo Storico. The Miura, currently under restoration, offers a unique view of the restoration process, as the sheet-metaling of the front part has already been completed while the rear part is still in its unfinished state without bodywork. The Diablo SE, on the other hand, is preserved in its original condition and arrived from a private collector in the United States just a few months ago to be inspected and subsequently granted the certification of authenticity from Polo Storico.
