OM 665 'SUPERB': THE FIRST WINNER OF THE MILLE MIGLIA
For lovers of rarities there will also be the OM 665 'Superba' on sale at the Bologna Motor Show.
The OM 665 'Superba' represents an authentic icon of Italian motoring with a history that makes it extraordinary.
Produced by OM (Officine Meccaniche), a brand originally from Brescia, it was sold until the early 1930s; the end of the Superba's commercial career marked the end of OM's car production.
In 1927 this car won the first edition of the legendary Mille Miglia, with driver Giuseppe Morandi at the wheel, navigated by Ferdinando Minoia. This feat was fundamental for OM and for the prestige of the Mille Miglia itself.
The bond between OMs and the Mille Miglia is so strong that these cars still enjoy special treatment in the race: entry is always guaranteed and, if you own an OM, you have the privilege of starting first. The Mille Miglia is the most exclusive historic car race in the world, with an extremely restrictive selection of eligible cars. Only models built up to 1957 that have participated in the historic edition held between 1927 and 1957 are eligible.
The OM 665 'Superba' for sale in Bologna is a testimony to Italy's exceptional automotive heritage.
