The Jota was replicated in much less excessive vogue within the type of the Miura SVJ, but it surely nonetheless received aluminum bodywork, a brand new engine, and higher aero. Most can be happy with that, however the unique proprietor of the Jota reportedly commissioned one other automobile to match the primary, with this getting the nickname “Millechiodi.” Meaning “a thousand nails,” referring to the quite a few rivets on the physique of the Jota.

However that is not the second coming we discuss with. In line with Highway & Observe, a German buyer known as Heinz Steber was on his approach to a Lambo manufacturing unit to service a light-weight inexperienced Miura S within the winter of 1974 when he suffered gentle front-end harm in a crash. Steber took this chance to request one thing resembling the Jota, however Miura manufacturing had ended the previous 12 months, so Lamborghini stated it was unimaginable. However like a real fanatic, Steber ignored Lamborghini, sourced the elements wanted himself, and returned to the Lamborghini manufacturing unit in February 1975 with brakes from a Porsche 917, three-piece BBS wheels, Koni suspension, and quite a few different efficiency upgrades. Eight months on, Lamborghini created one thing much more particular than the unique: the Miura Jota SVR.

As a result of Steber couldn’t register it for highway use in Germany, it was offered the 12 months after it was completed, in 1976, after which once more in 2015 earlier than Lamborghini accomplished a full restoration over 19 months. Fortunately, its most up-to-date proprietor stated he meant to make use of it usually.
