  • ... that Simon Kidston's car collection includes the last ever Lamborghini Miura SV (pictured)? Source: "Simon Kidston ... Lamborghini Miura ... and 12 years ago he acquired the last-built SV (Spinto Veloce or “fast-tuned”) version to leave the factory" (and [1] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
  • Reviewed: Tomahawk chop (2-article DYK nom, 2nd QPQ use)
  • Comment: NOT the exact same Lamborghini Miura SV

Interesting fact in the hook, good licensed illustration. Good sources, no copyvio obvious. If you can tell us more on the man, vs. his cars, you are welcome. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:40, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  • @Edwardx: - The hook is slightly wrong, the source states "last built" but the "last ever" would indicate that all other Lamborghini Miura's have been destroyed and no others were on the road. If the hook was modified to be "The last Lamborghini Miura SV produced" it would be factual and supported by the sources. Since this is not in a Prep area yet I figured it'd be easier to address the discrepancy here. If you're okay with the tweak I'll make the update as I put it in a Prep area.  MPJ-DK  03:33, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
