More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
For 40 years, Lamborghini has been one of the world's most flamboyant and exotic car marques. Written by a long-term Lamborghini insider, the book tells, for the first time, the real story of the men who kept the Italian company alive, making cars bought by wealthy business executives, show business celebrities, and sports stars. Custodians of Lamborghini have included Chrysler and businessmen in Switzerland and Asia. Now Lamborghini sits alongside Bugatti at Audi, part of the Volkswagen Group. Previous Lamborghini books have been little more than collections of pictures of the cars and technical descriptions, but this one describes the character of the men whose passion for Lamborghini kept the company alive. The book is published in 2004 as the all-new Lamborghini Gallardo goes on sale, 41 years after the original 350GTV burst onto the scene at the Turin auto show.
About the Author
David Jolliffe dreamt, like many boys, of becoming a world motor racing champion. Instead, after playing a key role with an F1 team, he sold sports cars before distributing Lamborghinis in Britain (which vied with Germany as the No. 2 market after the USA) for 30 years. He remains close friends with many people who were key players in the fortunes of Lamborghini over the decades.

Interesting book,

This review is from: Lamborghini (Hardcover)
The book is good and interesting for Lamborghini's fans. Although it has too many errors, especially with the pictures displaying a wrong description for some pictures (e.g. Countach instead the Diablo and opposite). The book has also a very strange and unusual format displaying half of pages blank.Dispite this the book is an interesting archive telling the Lamborghini owners story.
