Lando Norris Ditches Iconic $50,000 Jolly for New $1,474,710 Chick-Magnet While Roaming the Streets of Monaco

Lando Norris has now finally ditched his $50,000 Fiat Jolly for a whopping $1,474,710 Lamborghini Miura. The Briton was recently spotted roaming around the streets of Monaco in this car that could be labeled as a chick magnet.

Norris’ previous car, the Fiat Jolly, was his first love. Even though the car has a horsepower of just 15, the 23-year-old revealed in an interview why he likes it so much.

In an interview with the BBC, he said, “It’s one of the coolest cars you’ll ever get. It’s 15 horsepower, so it’s maybe also the slowest car I think I could possibly ever buy. But I think that’s why I love it so much“. However, now Norris has moved on to his 430-horsepower Lamborghini Miura.

As seen in a video shared widely all over social media, Lando Norris is driving around his Lamborghini Miura around the streets of Monaco. He takes his luxurious car to a hotel, where he interacts with some of his fans.

The Lamborghini Miura is indeed a special car as it has some striking features. Other than having 430 horsepower, it is run by a V-12 engine that is mounted at the rear.

As per Lamborghini’s official website, the Miura is the fastest car in the world. It has a top speed of 173.9886 miles per hour and can accelerate from 0 to 62.14 mph in just 6.7 seconds.

Moreover, it also has a top speed of 155 and can increase its speed from 0 to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. Since Norris is a McLaren driver, he also owns multiple luxury cars from the company.
