Type of fuel Gasoline

The Lamborghini Espada is a Gran Turismo that went into production in 1969, and was the first four seater offered from the company. It was designed by Marcello Gandini and built by Bertone, then assembled in Sant’Agata Bolognese. The first series was equipped with a 3.929 cc Lamborghini V12 engine and delivered approximately 325 HP, powered by six Weber double-barrel carburettors. The car was equipped with independent suspension and disc brakes on both the front and rear ends. The interior was very comfortable, with air conditioning and electric windows as standard. Production ceased in 1978 after 1.226 examples built, of which only 176 were from the first series, whose production ended in 1969. The example that we are pleased to offer is in perfect condition, in its Verde Acqua Metallizzato (Metallic Aqua Green) color and was subjected to restoration in 2016. The interiors are still original, they have been only “refreshed” and are in perfect aesthetic conditions. Mechanically in order, it’s still equipped with its original engine. Metallic paint and cassette radio player are two options of the time that this beautiful example, the 46th produced, boasts. The first owner resided in the province of Modena; after two years of ownership it was sold to a new owner resident in the province of Forlì and then landed with a third owner in the province of Messina, arriving in Milan in 1973 and remaining there for over 40 years. Even today, Italian license plates and documents are still maintained (square black plates). The example obtained the ASI “Targa Oro” Identity Certificate and is accompanied by its original owners’ manual.
