• The final rear-wheel-drive, 12-cylinder Lamborghini with a manual transmission and removeable roof

LONDON, ENGLAND – December 14, 2023 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – RM Sotheby’s is delighted to announce the upcoming sale of a highly significant 1998 Lamborghini Diablo SV Roadster, which will be sold through a Sotheby’s Sealed auction from 13 to 15 December.

The car is one of the rarest Lamborghini’s in existence, being one of a mere two factory-built Diablo SV Roadsters, and with many factory upgrades including exposed carbon fibre, front suspension lifting system, and rear wing. First delivered to official Lamborghini concessionaire Touring Auto S.r.l. in Milan, the car has since passed through the hands of three well-known Lamborghini enthusiasts. Offered by the current consignor with an exceptionally detailed history file and factory documentation, it is presented with just 42,842 kilometres and benefits from a recent service. A fully documented matching-numbers example, the car comes complete with a Lamborghini Polo Storico Certificate of Origin and original warranty book.

As the final rear-wheel-drive, manual V-12 Lamborghini ever built, the car represents the end of an incredible era for the Lamborghini factory and provides enthusiasts with an outstanding analogue driving experience that will never be replicated. A true automotive unicorn, this is a near-unrepeatable experience for any collector of iconic supercars. Ready for its next custodian, the 1998 Lamborghini Diablo SV Roadster will be open for bidding on the Sotheby’s Sealed platform from 13 December, 9 a.m. GMT to 15 December, 5 p.m. GMT.
