The Lamborghini Espada is a four-seater coupé. It was built by Lamborghini from 1968 to 1978. In the Espada, Lamborghini combined its twelve-cylinder engine with an elongated fastback body, which is considered a milestone in automotive design. Known internally as the Tipo 108, the Espada was the fourth model from the brand founded in 1963, following the 350 GT/400 GT, the Islero and the Miura. As the first fully four-seater Gran Turismo, it was the result of Ferruccio Lamborghini's efforts to offer a wide range of models. The Espada's body was designed by Bertone. The executive designer was Marcello Gandini. As the Espada was launched in the same year as the Islero, the technology of both models is largely identical. During its ten-year production run, the Espada underwent a number of changes. A total of three different series were produced. These were the S1 (1968–1970), the S2 (1970–1972) and the S3 (1972–1978). Each generation was given an improved engine. The second series now delivered 350 hp instead of 325 hp and also received a number of other innovations: the interior, which was still rather futuristic in the S1, was smoothed and simplified, the underbody was lowered slightly to increase headroom, and power steering was also available as an option. In the third series, the beautiful centre-lock wheels were replaced by conventional five-bolt wheels, the interior was redesigned again and, from 1974, a 3-speed automatic transmission from Chrysler could be ordered. The Lamborghini Espada offered here is a second series vehicle with Campagnolo centre-lock wheels and air conditioning. According to the Lamborghini registry, chassis #7927 was delivered to Garage Foitek in Zurich on 10 July 1970. At that time, it was in the colour ‘Verde Pallido Metallizzato’ with an interior in ‘Verde Scuro’ and was first registered on 15 July. After several years in the canton of Graubünden, the coupé moved to the canton of Zurich, where the body was restored in 2002 and repainted in its current red colour. The interior was matched to the exterior colour with black leather and red carpets. Shortly afterwards, the then owner left Switzerland and parked the Lamborghini at a friend's house. After around eight years of standing idle, the family-friendly Italian car was awakened from its slumber in 2011 and carefully put back into service. After a brief change of ownership in 2015, the Espada was taken over by the consignor in September 2017 and integrated into his collection. During the next two years, he had the car technically and visually refurbished in his workshop. The brake system and shock absorbers were overhauled, the air conditioning system was serviced, the entire mechanics were checked and, where necessary, overhauled, and the wheels were repainted and fitted with a set of new tyres. After completion, the Lamborghini spent most of its time in the owner's air-conditioned hall. In the last six years, only around 1’000 km have been covered with the Grand Tourismo – which is also the reason why it is now being sold. The Espada is currently in good to very good condition. The matching-numbers engine runs well and the gearbox shifts crisply. The interior is well maintained and the bodywork is beautiful and healthy, except for a small dent with paint chipping on the rear right. The most recent veteran MOT was completed in September 2025 – so the Lamborghini can be registered and enjoyed immediately.
