Now boats don't interest me whatsoever having had a Broom speedboat with a 50hp Merc outboard on it whilst growing up it all got pretty boring after a while, but this one with 2 X V12 Lambo engines could rekindle the interest but not very likely to happen for the sort of prices these fetch. Just listening to it would be enough  .  The story of the restoration. http://www.autoblog.com/2013/10/13/riva-aquarama-lamborghini-restored-video/

Pure Engine Porn....  A beautiful, symmetrical, polished delight... And not a sq.cm. of plastic in sight.

Yes too right it looks like 12 twin choke carbs they are so much nicer to look at than injectors for sure and as for the induction roar...
Deano - it's going to make running the V8's look cheap..

Now you gotta good memory (Niva - I know what you meant) and not rusted away like they did. My late Brother in law worked for the NFC and he was in charge of the Lada imports at Bridlington at the time. One of the perks of the job whichever import they were managing was a top of the range car. He decided to take a NIVA with every conceivable extra going, it got it's revenge though the thing was so underpowered it nearly stalled going up Sutton Bank. It was a monumental piece of motoring excrement.

Now I think about it , when was the last time anyone saw a Niva? Or Lada come to that, been to many car shows and seen loads of Morgan's and Porsches but not ex Soviet metal.

I think the T22's were the best things they built and still a few of them about.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
