But it’s a tale worth recounting for this drive, to truly
understand the impact the Miura had on the world.
As a successful tractor manufacturer, Lamborghini had
amassed enough wealth by the late fifties to buy several
Ferraris. Not content with the reliability of his purchases,
he sought out Enzo Ferrari to provide some constructive
criticism. Ferrari famously responded by telling him: “Let
me make cars. You stick to making tractors.”
The comment spurred Lamborghini to found his own
car company, Automobili Lamborghini, with the intention
of creating faster and better machines than Ferrari.
His first car came in 1964. It was the 350 GT, a
comfortable and classy grand tourer with performance to
match the best sports cars of the day, thanks to a 3.5-litre
V12. But it was not the car that would keep Maranello
awake at night; that task would fall to the Miura.
The world first saw the Miura as a rolling chassis at
the 1965 Turin Motor Show. Despite its radical design,
inspiration was taken from the humble Austin Mini for
the V12’s transverse layout. Lamborghini also used a
common crankcase for the engine and transmission to
make it more compact. This mid-engined format was
only seen on racing cars of the era, so we can imagine
the shock of seeing it featured on a road car at the

the Lamborghini down the road.
Most of the weight sits on the back axle, which
combined with the fat tyres, provides tremendous
traction, but if you were to push beyond the limit,
there’s a sense the Miura wouldn’t be too forgiving.
There’s little weight over the front end (something you
would discover at high speeds when the car’s infamous
nose-lift would become evident), but this means the
steering is perfectly light. It simply goes where you point
the wheel. Soon we’re piecing together a few hairpins
draped on a picturesque hill, which is where
the thin A-pillars and low scuttle really help. As
you’d expect, the visibility behind is minimal,
but in 1971 there would be precious little

Lamborghini probably wouldn’t appreciate
me likening its esteemed supercar to a tractor,
but Ferrucio Lamborghini’s experience in making
agricultural vehicles didn’t harm this Miura’s
overall feeling of solidity and build quality.
The sense of occasion around a Miura drive
will never fail, but the usability surprised me –
so much so, I soon forgot about the rarity and
price tag. It’s a big compliment to say that this
supercar is far easier to drive than you’d think,
and it’s a privilege to be given the chance to drive
such an iconic car for the Lamborghini marque.

THERE were some big questions that


needed answering concerning the
practical appeal of the Alpine A110 GT when
it first joined our fleet. We knew it was one
of the great driver’s cars at any price. But
what about the ownership experience? The
limitations of its diminutive two-seat cabin
and its pair of tiny luggage areas? Or the
build quality of its partially hand-made,
overtly French-feeling interior?
Would these elements drive us slightly
nuts over the six months we were due to
keep our A110 GT, or would the good bits be
so good that the bad bits would be forgotten
about? And what about the aftersales
support when it needed a service? Would
that be comparable to what you’d expect and
receive from a Porsche franchise, or would
the A110 feel much like any other Renault
when it came to dealer support?
In the end, would we recommend the Magnifique Steve is so
A110 to a good friend if they asked “Should smitten by the A110 that he’s
I buy one?” Or did its impracticalities get sorry to say au revoir to it
the better of us after 13,825 miles, seven
months and one full annual service later?
I’d love to tell you that the Alpine behaved
faultlessly during its time with us but, sadly,
I cannot. At one point the sat-nav system
went completely wonky, abandoning me in
the middle of Darlington just a few hundred
yards from my destination. It tends to be
the end bit of a journey that matters most,
because that’s the bit where you end up
where you want to be. Or not, if the nav
screen goes blank at the wrong moment.

Rattle
More worryingly, the interior developed the
odd rattle and squeak the nearer the car got
to its annual 12,000-mile service. In fairness,
our GT had already had a hard life as a press
car before it came to us with 6,000 miles
on the clock, but 6,000 miles later it felt far

from brand new. Things just felt a bit loose.
The automatic dual-clutch gearbox
started biting inconsistently when cold for
no apparent reason other than wear, there
was the odd suspension clonk over bigger
bumps, and the Alpine started to feel a bit
second-hand after it got to 12,000 miles.
But then from its service, carried out to FINAL REPORT We’re sad to say goodbye to French sports car

Mazda CX-60
42-year-old in Banbury, Oxon, with three points.
OUR Mazda CX-60 has been proving and improving itself over the past few
weeks, reports chief sub-editor Andy Pringle. And what the big SUV proved
above all was that size matters. Andy was just about to ferry his daughter a
few miles to her birthday party when a clearly distressed friend, whose son
and daughter were also invited, rang to say that their car had a puncture –
so please could Andy take their children while they changed the wheel.
The Mazda was more than up to the challenge. Even with two of the
youngsters in bulky child seats, it took all three of them across the rear
bench without any problem. The bags that Andy had planned to chuck on
the seat were soon stowed in the boot. The Mazda made light work of it all.
It was much the same story when the CX-60 told Andy that it was due
for a software update. A message appeared on the infotainment screen
and, with the Mazda parked up, after just a few twirls and prods of the
clickwheel, and a short wait for the software to download and install,
the whole process was done in about five minutes.

IT’S fair to say that BMW’s revival of
the Mini marque (before it was even dead,
strictly speaking), was an inspired move.
From the day that the first hatch went on
sale in 2001, BMW’s sub-brand hit buyers’
imaginations. The MINI was such a success
for BMW that it decided to capitalise on
this enthusiasm by expanding the range
significantly, with models such as the
Clubman and Countryman.
They survived, along with the Hatch and
Convertible, but two that didn’t make it were
built for a relatively short period only: the
MINI Mk2-based Coupé and Roadster.
Intended to be two-seater sporting editions,
the Roadster and Coupé put fun ahead of
ultimate practicality, and to great effect.

THE MINI Coupé went on sale in the UK in
October 2011, with the Roadster following

Recalls
BMW’s relaunch of the MINI brand got off to something
of a shaky start, with no fewer than five recalls issued
in little more than a year. Fortunately things then settled
down pretty quickly, and by the time the Coupé and
Roadster arrived, the quality control appears to have
been back up to BMW’s usual standards.
As a result, the Coupé and Roadster were recalled on
just one occasion, in March 2019, with the campaign
also including the BMW X5, X6, 5 Series, 6 Series,
7 Series, plus the MINI Hatch, Clubman, Convertible and
Countryman. In all, 5,866 cars were affected, all built in
February and March 2011. The problem centred on the
engine’s auxiliary water pump, the circuit board for
which could short circuit, potentially leading to a fire.
The solution was to fit a new auxiliary water pump.

BUYING CARS Low-cost runarounds

Car Hunter
£5,000 to buy a cheap and cheerful local runabout
THE CHARMING CHOICE

Renault Twingo
FOR: Spacious, charming style, good infotainment
AGAINST: Not as rugged as Mii, not very driver-focused

THIS 2014-19 generation of the Twingo shares


a rear-engined platform with the Smart ForFour,
and its funky five-door styling, good spec and
decent ride comfort make it great used buy.
If you want something as fresh as possible,
then be prepared to pay up to £5,500 for a
2016 1.0 SCe with 50,000 miles. We’d probably
prefer a 2015 car with 30-40k miles for similar
money. Go for the 90bhp version of the 1.0-litre
engine, rather than the 70bhp, because it’s a
better all-rounder for any out-of-town trips, and
also comes with our favoured Dynamique trim.

THE FASHIONISTA CHOICE

Fiat 500
FOR: A style icon, lots of personalised details
AGAINST: Three doors only, very cramped rear seats

THE Fiat 500 arrived in 2008, and although it


was facelifted in 2015, you’d be hard-pressed
to notice. Higher-tech headlamps and an
upgraded (optional) infotainment touchscreen
were the highlights, and they’re worth having.
Engine options include the charismatic two-
cylinder Twin Air, available with 85 or 105bhp.
We’d be looking for a 2015 Twin Air with
around 50k miles, which might push the budget
to £5,500. The 1.2 is cheaper but slower, and
not as much fun. Talking of which, 500C cabrios
will be pre-facelift for this kind of money.

THE PRAGMATIC CHOICE

SEAT Mii
FOR: Three or five doors, practical and robust, ‘big car’ feel
AGAINST: Boring looks, low image, limited engine choice

THE Mii was SEAT’s version of the VW up! city


car and offered almost all of its appeal – badge
snobbery aside – at a slightly cheaper price. It’s
brilliantly packaged, with a radiator alongside
the front-mounted engine allowing everything to
be pushed forward out of the spacious cabin.
Compared with most city cars, this SEAT will
feel like a vehicle from the class above if you’re
behind the wheel or in the passenger seats.
You’ll find £5,000-£5,500 is enough for a 50k-
mile Mii from 2015, and you might get lucky with
a 2016 car. As with all this trio, older variants
are available with much lower mileages, too.

ROUND Two of the 2023 Formula One


World Championship takes place this
weekend in Saudi Arabia. The 3.8-mile
Jeddah Street Circuit has already become
notorious in just two seasons for its
barriers, inches away from the track
and hiding high-speed blind corners.
The smooth surface and more flowing
nature should give a different challenge to
the abrasive tarmac and stop/start nature
of the opening race in Bahrain – and teams
and fans alike will hope this will offer a
chance for rivals to get a little closer to Max
Verstappen, who was dominant in the
season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix.
The reigning champion was peerless,
leading from start to finish at what seemed
like a canter at times, driving his Red Bull
kindly to avoid unnecessary stress on his
car or its Pirelli tyres. The Dutchman
finished almost 12 seconds clear of his
team-mate Sergio Perez, himself another
28.6 seconds ahead of third-placed
Fernando Alonso.
In what was the biggest story of the
weekend, the 2005 and 2006 world
champion was making his debut for the
Aston Martin squad, and backed up a
promising pre-season test by being a clear
third fastest on race pace, leapfrogging
Mercedes and just shy of Ferrari. It was
a remarkable turnaround from a squad
that finished back in seventh place in the
constructors’ championship last year.
Alonso will be hoping for a slightly less
