New arrival
Lamborghini Islero S Dark Blue KK-Scale 1:18 KKDC181586 Diecast
1 / 6
KK-Scale's 1:18 diecast Lamborghini Islero S reproduces the 1969 grand tourer in dark blue, the front-engine coupe Lamborghini sold alongside its far more famous mid-engine Miura. The sealed one-piece body holds long, flat panels and a crisp shoulder line, with the Islero's pop-up headlight covers cast closed and chrome trim picked out cleanly against the dark paint. A mid-tier diecast discovery for collectors who already own the obvious Lamborghini names and want the quieter half of the story.

About the Lamborghini Islero S Dark Blue KK-Scale 1:18

TL;DR: KK-Scale's 1:18 Lamborghini Islero S reproduces the 1969 grand tourer in dark blue, the front-engine coupe Lamborghini sold alongside its far more famous mid-engine Miura. Diecast construction, sealed one-piece body, correct Marazzi-bodied proportions, a mid-tier entry for collectors chasing Lamborghini's lesser-known 1960s side.

Lamborghini's catalog in the late 1960s held two very different cars at once: the mid-engine Miura that rewrote supercar design, and the front-engine Islero that quietly carried on Ferruccio Lamborghini's original grand-touring brief. History remembers one and mostly forgets the other, which is exactly why the Islero rewards a second look today.

The Islero S and the Lamborghini the Miura Overshadowed

A Front-Engine GT Built in the Miura's Shadow

Lamborghini launched the Islero in 1968, built around a steel body from the Carrozzeria Marazzi coachworks and powered by the brand's 4.0-liter V12 mounted conventionally up front, a layout that looked almost old-fashioned next to the mid-engine Miura sharing the same showroom floor. Where the Miura chased headlines with its radical packaging, the Islero aimed at a quieter customer: someone who wanted genuine Lamborghini performance in a car they could drive comfortably across a continent rather than park as a static statement. That positioning meant the Islero never got the press attention the Miura commanded, and it has stayed the more obscure car in Lamborghini's history ever since, built in far smaller numbers than its famous stablemate.

What the 'S' Added in 1969

Lamborghini revised the car for 1969 as the Islero S, adding more power from the V12, wider wheel arches to cover a wider track, and a bonnet scoop that gave the nose a slightly more purposeful look than the original's cleaner lines. The changes were modest rather than dramatic, consistent with the car's whole character: refinement over reinvention. This dark blue example represents that updated S specification, the version most collectors consider the more complete and more desirable of the two Islero variants, even if it still sits well behind the Miura in name recognition and market attention. That gap is exactly what makes it worth seeking out.

KK-Scale's Diecast Reading of a Conservative Lamborghini Shape

A Sealed Body for a Subtly Aggressive Profile

This Islero S comes as a fixed, one-piece diecast casting, with the doors, hood, and trunk molded shut rather than built to swing open. For a shape built on long, flat panels and a low, clean beltline, that sealed construction is an asset: the body's visual tension comes from unbroken surfaces and a crisp shoulder line rather than any single standout feature, and a one-piece casting holds those long panel edges straighter than a hinged assembly ever could. The zinc alloy body gives the model real weight in hand, and the proportions, that long hood balanced against a short tail, come through clearly at 1:18 scale.

Dark Blue Paint and Where the Craft Shows

Dark blue suits this car's understated character better than a louder Lamborghini color would, and the gloss holds deep and even across the hood and roof, the two largest unbroken panels on the body. Chrome window surrounds and bumper trim are picked out cleanly against the dark paint, and the Islero's distinctive pop-up headlight covers, closed in this casting, read as crisp, flush panels rather than an afterthought. Badge work on the nose and tail is sharp under magnification, a detail worth checking closely since it's often where mid-tier diecast cuts a corner that a careful buyer will notice immediately. That attention to the small stuff is what separates a convincing Islero from a generic 1960s coupe shape.

A Discovery Pick for a Grand Tourer Collection

Why the Overlooked Lamborghini Belongs on the Shelf

At 1:18 a long-hood GT coupe like the Islero S runs close to 24 centimeters, a comfortable fit on a standard shelf next to other grand tourers of the period without needing the extra depth a Miura's wider stance would demand. Placed beside period Ferraris, Maseratis, and Aston Martins, the Islero holds its own on proportion and presence, a reminder that Lamborghini's early catalog was broader than the one car most people picture. For a collector who already owns the obvious supercar names, this Islero S offers the quieter half of the story at an accessible mid-tier diecast price, a genuinely rare subject that most displays never get around to including at all. That rarity is the whole appeal, not a consolation prize. Few sellers stock it at all.
