It is one of the absolute super sports car legends and, as is well known, was the first product from the Italian sports car manufacturer to be developed under the direction of Audi. Of the Lamborghini Murcielago Its spectacular design still fascinates big and small car fans alike today. As the successor to the icon called Diablo, it did not have it easy at first, but mastered his role with flying colors and with a total of 4.099 units was the best-selling Lamborghini super sports car of all time to date. Its production period stretched over 9 years from 2001 to 2010. And a very special example has now been created by the British tuning company drift works

rear-driven fighting bull

In contrast to the usual Murciélagos, this one has not through all-wheel drive, but through pure rear-wheel drive. We are now introducing you to the extraordinary vehicle in more detail. tuner Phillip Morrison, the head of the tuning company Driftworks, actually never wanted to own a Murciélago, let alone tune it, but things often develop differently than you think. So the tuner decided to create a unique Lamborghini together with his crew, which will probably not appear again.

Among other things, he wears an original one Reiter Engineering R-GT GT1 Le Mans Aero Package, which includes special bumpers, front wings, side skirts, a carbon GT rear wing, and a carbon diffuser. Surprisingly, the Door opening mechanism changed, and it also held a new one Hatchback without a cat staircase entry. For an even sportier handling, a special one was also added Custom coilovers installed by Nitron. There are also on the front axle one-piece 3SDM rims, which have a diameter of 19 inches, while three-part copies in 20-inch format from the same manufacturer are attached to the rear axle.

The one-piece aluminum at the front and the three-part at the back have a glossy black finish and a slightly concave look. The rims were fitted with Michelin tires in the format 275/30 R19 on the front axle and tires in the format 345/20 R20 on the rear axle. There are also still on the rear flanks Widebody elements are used, which give the Italian fighting bull an even more aggressive design, and behind the black round blades there are blue brake calipers that make up a Carbon-ceramic brakes belong off the Lamborghini shelf.

More details of the vehicle are one GT1 rain light at the stern, GT1 emblems from the 3D printer and that "R31 TER" mark, which pays homage to Reiter Engineering. Thus, the car is definitely an absolute eye-catcher and lets standard lambos fade away.

There is a racing feeling in the interior!

The cockpit hasn't changed much except for the fact that Recaro SPG seats are installed, which on special Seat rods are mounted. There is also a removable one Nardi Personal Grinta sports steering wheel in the Lambo, which has a Quick release function from Driftworks.

Complete conversion to rear-wheel drive and manual transmission.

Originally the Murciélago was equipped with an automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, but it was on Rear-wheel drive and six-speed manual transmission rebuilt to create an optimal drift vehicle. being 6,5 liter V12 naturally aspirated gasoline engine has also been revised, and now performs tightly 686 BHP and a massive 818 Newton meters of maximum torque. Unfortunately, we do not know anything about the performance after the increase in performance, but the evil fighting bull should generate a lot of thrust and be on the level of an Aventador.

Our Conclusion to the probably unique Murciélago:

Hats off to what the British tuner Phil Morrison has put on the wheels. This extremely complex project, in which a lot of heart and soul and British pounds are invested, is a dream come true on four wheels for all sports car enthusiasts.
