I remember sitting in that jam in the 1980s when going to work in the West End. I spotted Paul and Linda McCartney in the back of a blue S-Class one evening going back out of town on the Old Kent Road.

What a great picture of a Miura. I presume this picture is from the states? Any idea when and where?
