Maria Cristina Guizzardi, born in Sant'Agata Bolognese, has always lived under the sign of Toro and in particular of Countach, which was also the car that caught her imagination as a child, seeing it circulating in the village from the time of her infancy and youth.
Then she worked for many years at Lamborghini herself, a lifelong dream, first at the press and public relations office and then, for a long period, as tour manager in the museum and in the company, on the production line.
She naturally had the opportunity to meet many people from inside and outside the company, breathing deeply the atmosphere of the legendary House of Toro, founded by Ferruccio.
This book is particularly intended to celebrate the anniversary of the Countach - which marks 50 years since its first launch - by retracing the salient stages through data and official dates, from presentation of the first LP500 prototype to the production model.
Inside, testimonies from some protagonists of company life, since Ferruccio's time and beyond. Amongst them, homaged on the cover, is 'Il trio del Toro': Enzo Moruzzi, Ubaldo Sgarzi and Paolo Stanzani.
The texts, in Italian and English, are illustrated with many archive images, most of them previously unpublished and precious.
