Lamborghini Miura SVR Red Kyosho 1:18 08319RBK Diecast
1 / 9
Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Lamborghini Miura SVR wears Red over the wide-body racing silhouette Bob Wallace built as a one-off Lamborghini development prototype, converted from a wrecked production SV. Opening doors and hood reveal a detailed cabin and V12 engine bay, with the flared arches and deep front spoiler capturing the prototype's aggressive stance. A genuine conversation piece for any Miura lineup.

About the Lamborghini Miura SVR Red Kyosho 1:18

TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Lamborghini Miura SVR reproduces the one-off racing prototype that Lamborghini test driver Bob Wallace built by reworking a wrecked production SV. Finished in Red with wide-body flares and opening panels, it commemorates one of the strangest, most singular chapters in the Miura's history.

Most one-off prototypes stay locked away in a factory archive. The Miura SVR is the rare exception that survives in public memory, born from a wrecked test car and Bob Wallace's determination to build something faster than the production SV.

Bob Wallace's One-Off Miura SVR Prototype

From Wrecked SV to Racing Development Car

Lamborghini's chief test driver Bob Wallace had a reputation for pushing prototypes harder than anyone else on staff, and the SVR grew directly out of that habit. The story traces back to a production Miura SV damaged during testing, which Wallace rebuilt rather than scrapped, reworking the bodywork with wider arches, a deeper front spoiler, and a rear wing to suit more aggressive, track-focused driving. The result was never intended for sale. It existed as a single development car, a testbed for ideas that might have fed into a future competition Miura had Lamborghini pursued one seriously. That the car survived at all, let alone survived intact enough to be documented and later restored, makes it one of the more unusual footnotes in the Miura's story.

A Prototype That Never Reached the Racetrack

Despite its wide-body, race-ready appearance, the SVR never contested a sanctioned race under Lamborghini's banner. Lamborghini's leadership showed little enthusiasm for a factory-backed competition program built around the Miura, leaving the SVR as a demonstration of what Wallace and his engineering colleagues thought the car could become rather than a car with an actual results sheet. Kyosho isn't reproducing a championship winner here. It's reproducing a genuine one-off, a car whose significance comes entirely from what it represents about Lamborghini's engineering culture.

Kyosho's Diecast Interpretation in Red

Wide-Body Panels and Engine Bay

The flared arches that defined the SVR's altered bodywork are tooled distinctly from a standard Miura casting, with the wider stance and deeper front spoiler correctly proportioned rather than grafted on as an afterthought. Doors and hood open on metal hinges, exposing the transverse V12 that made the Miura the car that arguably started the mid-engine supercar template. Given how few genuine references exist for the SVR's exact specification, since it was a hand-built one-off rather than a catalogued production car, Kyosho's interpretation necessarily leans on documented photographs and later restoration work rather than an original factory blueprint, which is worth knowing going in.

Red Paint Against Aggressive Bodywork

Red suits the SVR's harder-edged bodywork well, giving the flared arches and deep spoiler a visual weight that a lighter color might soften. Kyosho's paint holds consistent depth across the wider panels, and the shut lines around the opening sections stay tight despite the more complex bodywork compared to a standard Miura. Trim details, including the rear wing mounts and the vented rear deck, are picked out with enough separation from the body color to read clearly from a normal shelf distance.

A Singular Piece for a Miura Collection

Displayed alongside a standard Miura P400 or SV, the SVR reads as the outlier it always was: wider, more aggressive, and built by one man's determination rather than a factory production line. For collectors focused on Lamborghini's development history rather than just its catalogued production cars, this diecast fills a gap most Miura displays never touch, offering a documented piece of engineering culture at a standard diecast price rather than a limited resin premium.
