430 Lamborghini Miura SV reg. JS 27 c/n 4828 in UK & Norway 1972 - 1974

I bought this 1971 manufactured unique right-hand drive black Lamborghini Muira SV UK registration number JS 27 c/n 4828 from Jonathan Sieff, director of Marks and Spencer and motor-racing driver in March 1972. When I bought it only 485 miles was on the clock. Mr Sieff bought it new from Roger Philips at Lamborghini GB in the City of London. l owned it until October 1975. After my purchase it was a regular visitor to Oslo and Telemark Norway. After meeting my future Norwegian wife on 6 June 1972, it was flown later that month in a British Air Ferry DC4 Carvair aircraft from Southend to Rotterdam airport en-route to Norway. On arrival at the German border the guard asked my future wife, as she spoke German "How long do you intend staying in Germany" to which she replied jokingly - " in this car just 3 minutes" - much to the amusement of the border guard! Via the German autobahns we reached Sweden in record time. Whilst driving through Sweden en-route to Oslo Norway we were stopped twice by Swedish Police patrols. They had only recently been supplied with hand-held radar guns but because of our speed they were unable to have a reading and they only wanted to view the engine and with a smile sent us on our way. To the best of my knowledge between 1972 and 1975 this was the only Lamborghini in Norway. After the arrival of an an expanded family a two-seat car was not an option so until 1980 I owned thee Lamborghini Espadas in purple, green and silver until I purchased a Rolls Royce Camargue (last photo with my wife)- so clearly an age thing!
