Wheelbase: The Lady from Lamborghini

on BBC Two England

Gordon Wilkins covers the world of motoring from Italy.

One of the most beautiful and expensive cars ever made is being sold all over the world by a woman. Marisa Baldessari, a former opera singer and language scholar, is now, at the age of twenty-six, sales manager for Ferruccio Lamborghini, whose new £5,000 two-seater Miura is more luxurious than a Lagonda and faster than a Ferrari.
At the Turin Motor Show and at her home in Bologna Wheelbase looks at the life of the lady from Lamborghini who has won her way to the top in a salesman's world.
