If you're a Lamborghini fan, there can be few places on earth more exciting than the Lamborghini Museum. 16,000 square feet of sleek minimalist architecture houses the most impressive collection of Lambos on the planet, with everything from the Miura to the Aventador on show, alongside rare concept cars and racers.

Unfortunately, what with Lamborghini being an Italian company and all, the museum is in Sant'Agata Bolognese, about 20 miles north-west of Bologna. It's not, therefore, especially handy to visit for us Brits.

Luckily, internet giant Google has devised a clever way of allowing anybody with access to a computer to visit the Lambo Museum. By bringing their Street View feature indoors, users can navigate the museum and view high-definition panoramic photos of the entire place, eliminating the need for expensive airline tickets or a bloody long drive. You can even get inside the cars, something which we're guessing you couldn't do if you actually went to the museum.

It's not perfect, mind you. Google has only mapped the important bits of the museum so you can't have a gander in the toilets or take a look at the almost certainly astronomical prices in the Lamborghini gift shop; however, as sneak peeks of foreign automotive museums go, it's pretty impressive.

To take a look for yourself, nip on over to Google Maps, seach for "Museo Lamborghini" and prepare yourself for some gleaming specimens from Lambo's heritage.
