My apologies to Ash.........Spelling is not my strong point.
Not in Italian, anyway.
Besides.........i often put a u in Lambourghini........LMAO

For JMillard..........
Do your homework.
From memory the car was bought by an Arab.
At the quoted auction price, in pounds sterling, it converted to almost one and a half million Aussie dollars.
Many of us can blame Bob Hawke for the destruction of our dollar........but they were the quoted values.

Yeah.......OK

I think your memory may be faulty - I've done my homework, how about you?

P400 SV/J
One of these cars, chassis #4934, was built for the Shah of Iran. The Shah stored this car under armed guard with another SV in Royal Palace in Tehran. After he fled the country during the Iranian Revolution, his cars were seized by the Iranian government. The SV/J was sold into Dubai in 1995. In 1997 this car was sold via a Brooks auction to Nicolas Cage, at US$490,000, becoming the model's highest ever price sold in an auction.
