Background
The Lamborghini P140 is a code name given to a series of prototype cars built by Lamborghini starting in 1987. It was intended as a replacement for the outgoing Jalpa but never went into production, despite being close to production ready. This was due to dwindling demand for high performance during the recession caused by the 1990 oil price shock and 1990-1991 Gulf War. The P140 was the first Lamborghini to be powered by a V10 engine.
