Murciélago SV all day. My fave Lambo!
a very awesome history lesson. Thank Harry. Always great to get a refresh... one of the best and most refreshing exotic car companies today... Viva Lambo!
Wish all history lessons were like this one. Many thanks for the video. All the best in your new role at JLR And thanks for all the articles in evo over the years.
Really great informative overview.
that watch he is wearin costs 10 000$ Panerai Luminor
That's a sharp ass eye. Unless there was a close up i missed
+Chris Sorreda watch from 8:08
SartaniaGio so ?
Thank you, sir, for that comprehensive walk through Lamborghini's amazing history. Each V12 rendition is special in its own way and I now have a much better understanding of these iconic bulls!
I think the Countach Anniversary is actually my favorite-looking one. It looks brilliant. The Diablo GT looks damn good too.
What about the 1997 Diablo SV with the decals on side? Or the GTR?
Look for the complete episode on Harry’s Garage channel
Never was a big fan of the original Muira when compared to the SV version. Especially in red and gold...now that's a beauty!!
Notice on the later QV's and the anniversary countach the rear wing is thinner and taller than the more straked back wider earlier ones. Fun fact I just found out this year
Nobody says it´s their favorite countach???? the 25th anniversary its absolutely the best looking of all!
i love the LP 400s
Vital Mendoza as a Lambo owner, the Countach is my absolutely positively favorite car of all time. Just can't buy one because I drive all my cars like they are ment to be driven and I have too much love for Countach 5000s to drive like I do with all my cars.
There were gallardo's/superleggera's there...like the title say's he's doing a V12 Timeline
Fantastic, so much to learn in just 20 some odd minutes. Love the enthusiasm, the knowledge, and the delivery is bar-none. One of my favorite vids for sure. Porsche or Astin next with a similar diary?
I want this mans job
Top work Harry, great video.
"and now it's time for a beer!" best ending ever :D
Very well done Harry.
Harry! I think this is one of your bests videos
A couple of months ago we had a Ferrari Racing Days here in São Paulo and I had the honor of meeting the collector from Chile, the owner of the Zonda 760RS you tested, an extraordinary person. He showed me in his cell phone photos of the entire collection.
We talk about you and even I said "I'm a big fan of Harry, I would like to meet him one day." We talked about the Zonda's, I thought it was fantastic.
A huge success to you!
William
i saw once that the first countach wing was invented by Lamborghini Switzerland who had a tuning division in the 80's and made most of them, odd thing to brag about if not true.
"Now it's time for a beer."
Dude, I'll buy you a whole fkin' keg of beer after this.
Thanks, great timeline. But you managed to MISPRONOUNCE almost every single model:
- Miura Jota: Miurah "hohtah", not "yoteh"
- Jarama: "haramah" not "yarameh"
- Countach: "coontÁch" not "cOÓntach"
- Diablo: "deeabloh" not "dayabehlou"
- Murciélago: "moorciÉlahgoh" not "mehrcielÁhgoh"
- Aventador: "aventadÓhr" not "avÉntador"
Damn! He stole my video! LOL. We did same thing in Italy only not as much detail and not just V12. I'm going to edit a couple right now. lol
Ferrari is class. Lamborghini is parvenu. They touched Mount Olympus once, with the Miura S. But thence it was downhill, starting with the Countach. Still, I appreciated the walk through with Harry.
Countach QV injection exhausts come out horizontal, not vertical. Also, the Diablo is bloody awful looking compared to its forebears....
This is an awesome video, one of the best I've seen on TH-cam. Absolutely love Lambos and their V12s! Murcielago LP640 manual is my favourite.
Judging from the way he fondles all the Lamborghinis, I feel like the host is one of those people who would get kicked out of the Louvre for touching the Mona Lisa. ;-) Absolutely love the video!
the mona lisa doesnt have a v12
The low roof 400S also has different front fender spats than the later more rounded front fenders of the late series 2 400S and the 5000S
Still pure Gold Harry - time to get an STO allocation for yourself. Last of a dying breed.
Fantastic video, I would love to see a similar one with Ferrari V12 and Porsche flat 6.
For me... the best is 5000 Qv.
P.D: Great Report; congratzz ;)
I honestly don't know why that show is still so popular. It's quality has been sinking a lot lately. I don't even think Top Gear takes themselves seriously anymore. I stopped watching Top Gear back in 2008, to search for more serious reviewers and car enthusiast.
You forgot to mention that the LP670-4 SV (in the video) was 1 of 5 with a manual gearbox, the last flagship V12 manual Lamborghini ever.
Great video! I love how most of the video consisted of older, enthusiast Lamborghinis.
I saw the Aventador in Italy when it was presented to the press, on April 2011, I was so fucking shocked because I didn't know production had already started... only time I've been there and boy was I lucky.
Who dislikes this?!!!!!!
Enzo Ferrari's ghost.
Ur mom
Rohan Rawat bunch of bitches, that who.
just brilliant ....thanks Harry...there's a special art to car journalism . Its all well and good having knowledge , but knowledge with such passion is rare !! you are a true legend !!
Wow. I had no idea there were so many Diablos, or how closely the Murcielago was related. Didn't know the story behind the wing on the Countach either. Fascinating stuff! Brilliant video.
that was such a fantastic journey from someone that clearly know their shit!!!!
the cannonball run car had a spoiler on the front, i wonder if it helped push the nose down
www.imcdb.org/i002311.jpg
No, it was there for the american bumper crash laws. Thats why it also had another spoiler at the back above the 12 exhaust
Awesome.
I have been looking for an LP400 project for a decade now. Sadly, they are further away then when I started.
As for porsche fan, there is only one porsche, the 911, i guess that for lambo fans, v12s lambos are the only true lambo ;) gallardos are for video clips
My compliments to a fantastic video! Harry, you are a master at what you do.
I enjoyed it very much.
Best wishes
Read the title. "Lamborghini (V12) Timeline." Unless Lamborghini/Audi put out a V12 version of the Gallardo, it's obviously not going to be here.
That anniversary at 14:10 If u look careful u could see how the Aventador came about because a blck Aventador kind of looks like that countach
Mr. Metcalfe, every single one of us who enjoyed this video actually OWE you a beer, at very least! I had a grin on my face the whole 24 minutes.
Look at the tittle, Lamborghini V12 timeline!! Only V12
Check out this dude's channel: Harry's Garage.
I was wondering the same.. Is it because there wasn't one at the show ? .Great video ! Absolutely a joy to watch these beasts .
I remember seeing a Muira for sale in about 1984 for $30,000.00. Now, they're worth twenty times that.
+Dean Lofquist I remember only about 10 years ago, the Jaguar XJ220 could be had for about £80,000.. now you're looking at half a million minimum.
Great video. I was lucky to work with a company delivering 25 cars from England that rolled into Milan at midnight. Took to 4.00 am to unload. When we went back on Saturday there was over 300 Lamborghini's in place. I spoke to the owner of the orange Miura from England and he showed me the car. Wow..it was spectacular. Great fun and thanks to Virginia Water Motor Co. for flying me down there.
24mins of TOTALLY WORTH MY TIME!! if i had to choose one lambo out of all he showed..oh boy...
a owner of a BIG auto repair shop owned a diablo GT in red
it was such a sight to see as a kid when i was no older than 10
and I was taller than it!!!!! id never seen such a short car with such a cool look to it
and he was such a nice guy he let me sit in it!
for once in a lifetime , i would love to hear all the lamborghinis there start up the same time , i bet the whole Italy can feel the ground shaking and the sheer noise it produces =]] thats something ferrari can't do , cuz when ferrari start up , they don't do 3-4000 rpm =]
Harry, thank you for including my Aventador among these epic V12 Lambos. It truly is an honor. As I tell you every time I see you, I am a huge fan. The Grande Giro was a very special event that none of us will ever forget. You've done a brilliant job capturing it. With Best, Kris
First get tons of truckloads of interesting information.
Then add just as much of the most beautiful cars ever.
Mix all this using a cocktail-shaker called Harry Metcalfe.
And you've got the best way to live 24 minutes of your life.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
24 minutes pasted like 2 minutes! what a great video absolutely fantastic, great work!
i remember when i was 14 years old back at 2006 and EVO magazine had an article about a white LP640 ! i walked 4 kilometers to buy that magazine :)
Harry-we owe you such a debt of gratitude for doing these videos. Just amazing. There's such a sense of intimacy with your coverage. I can't help but look forward to each successive one. From this car enthusiast(me) to another, I salute you. Many thanks.
Those Diablo's have some serious wear & tare on them, not exactly mint condition...a good thing cause it shows the owners like to drive their cars...I know I would...but I would probably keep it in pres teen condition even though I drive it a lot
I usually do. That is why I said as far as I know. I never stated that they didn't. I did not pretend to know for a fact that they didn't make V8s. But you are correct. I should have looked it up before making answering that comment.
gotta like the original Lambos =) nice Video =)
I would have loved to watch you go into all the details of all the cars, even if it was an hour long video.
THIS is how you report about a 50yr lambo anniversary event... after seeing autocars report on this special day I was shocked and dissappointed, but this is just absolutley amazing. thank you very much evo!
Great! Another interesting fact is that Walter Wolf's (slovenian as me) F1 team won first race they participaded. No one could do that since. Cant count Brawn cause they were ex Honda F1 team.
i love the video but i was annoyed by 1 thing. where is the GALLARDO!!! is it not worth mentioning? gallardo, gallardo sv, lp560-4, lp550-2 Valentino Balboni and my personal favourite lp570-4 sv
No Reventon? :-(
+Aydın Qasımov Well said
+OOLWpruf KW It was a limited edition. Just like the Sesto Elemento and Veneno.
and aventador J Abd Centenario etc
What a great video. Really enjoyed to hear how Lamborghini came to from early days to now, kinda wish he covered the gallardos but anyway Harry is the best. Always love watching his shit.
Even if somebody wasnt passionate about cars, after listening to Harry presenting and sharing his knowledge one would immediately become more interested in cars. Best presenter EVER!
Can't get enough of Harry and his love of Lambos, while all other presenters are going to harp on about handeling and practically, Harry is just passionate about a very unique machine.
Thank you for the great narrative of the history of Lamborghini v12 they are really the human form of a reference book and an absolute Lamborghini crazier in a positive sense :-)
Mr. Metcalfe doing what he does best: Excellent diary, very well explained and you can see the passion that this man has about cars and he's talking.
A great auto journalist indeed.
It's at 12;20, in the car park.
Wonderful walk through on lambo's v12 history. Harry, you earned 2 beers for that!! Excellent.
I've seen that reversing procedure before for a Countach, and I understand that the visibility is horrendous in that car, but why don't you just use the side mirrors?
The director of "The Cannonball Run" (to whom the Countach's wing owe its success) is Hal Needham. Someone that all the petrolheads who read Brock Yates' book will remember.
It makes me wonder how the the next V12 Lambo would look like....Can't wait.
Great video!
I like the old ones much better though.
First impression: Damn it's 24 minutes...oh wait it's Harry! Going to be fascinating as always
Excellent video Harry, really wanted to see the Reventon but I guess there aren't many around.
I LOVe how he ignores the Gallardo :) Which is NOT worthy of Lamborghini... That suited up R8..
Lamborghini cars were all pieces of shit which broke all the time and suddenly catch on fire, until Audi bought it in '99 the 2003 up lambo's are the read deal
Ah thanks. I'd be scared shit that my foot would slip off the clutch, I'd fall out the door, and my Lambo would crash into the crowd of people watching me ahahah.!
I was going to be a smart ass and say something about the pants but I won't because I enjoyed the vid. Very informative, would have been cool to have been there.
The gallardo has a v10 not a v12 and also it is gallardo superleggera not sv, sv stands for superveloce like on the murcielago lp670 and on the later miuras
great video. its a pity he didnt realise the LP670-4 SV he filmed talked about it a very rare manual version (only 6 were made!) which also made it even lighter.
great video, love this brand though I was mildly disappointed that you didn't get a chance to talk about the LM002, there was even one in the background @ 12:27!
Man these Lambo's owners really can't park. I know some of them did it on purpose but still...
Perfect history lesson though, Harry is so interesting to listen to!
They made the company much more successful and popular. As a viewer, you might not like that new Lamborghinis are easy to drive, but people who can afford them do.
Love how he really described things about the Miura Jota that I never know.
I own all of these cars and now its park on my big garage.
Evo diaries are simply the best, I just love Harry's enthusiasm combined with detailed knowledge of history and technology! Keep up the great work!
What a great video. I wish he had just included the Reventon, however. It's pretty rare, so maybe there wasn't one around? Still....good video.
Jalpa had a V8 and LM was SUV, not so much related to todays DNA of lamborghini - so, as important are they, this video is about different cars.
Gallardo came before the R8, has the 10 cylinder motor wich the pretty new R8 v10 uses now, so not, the Gallardo isn't quited a suited up r8.
Im a huge fan of the last Diablo. No pop up light, clean and simple and was truly a statement on the sleek look the Murcielago went to.
Awesome! Agree with boy638. But U didn't mention the Reventón. very special video though. Metcalfe is the 'ebert' of car reviewers.
he was looking at the regular V12 family of lambo's not the very low volume special editions like the reventon, veneno or sesto elemento
After covering the history of Lamborghini, what might one want to do next?
Drink beer.
I want to see same kind of video with Ferrari now.
Lamborghini cars are often painted in wild colours. But not as wild as Harry's trousers, which upstaged every car he stood next to.
Excellent potted history from Evo diaries. Harry really knows his Lamborghinis. I still prefer the wing on the Countach QV though.
Thanks for this brief history of Lamborghini. I Always like you pointing out small details that only owners and connaisseurs know.
