As the Murcielago reached the end of its production life, Lamborghini decided to introduce a limited run special that revived the firm’s SV moniker previously attached to some of its most revered models.

Following in the footsteps of the Miura SV and Diablo SV, the new Murcielago LP670-4 SV was the fastest, most extreme road-going iteration of Lamborghini’s early 21st century flagship supercar.

Offered exclusively in Coupe trim, the SV featured an array of significant enhancements to include a stiffer, lighter chassis, a 5% power boost, the normally optional carbon brakes and front axle lift fitted as standard, new wheels and tyres, a revised aero kit, a simplified sports-tuned interior and 100kg of weight savings.
