There have been major modifications to the assembly lines, a brand new one has been installed during the summer of 2002 to
prepare for the new Lamborghini V10 powered model, but the factory has also been enlarged, a rather important 'R&D' section

has been installed, where the Lamborghini's for the 21st century are being designed.

facility, others were just driven in like the very first Lamborghini Countach LP400, a stunning green car whose presence

Other cars of interest are the unique Diablo Roadster prototype, the beautifully restored 350 GTV prototype,

Other Lamborghini's are naturally the off shore powerboats, a scale model is on display and an actual engine is shown

can't just how up and enter these area's. Automobili Lamborghini SpA is currently thinking about some kind of gallery,
which will be open to visitors all the time and which will also show several interesting Lamborghini's.
The official factory museum is surely worth a visit, when you do make an appointment, make sure to ask for a guided
visit of the factory itself, the assembly line and the restoration workshop are very interesting.
