It is reported that he had the factory fit a shorter differential ratio to improve its performance on steep alpine roads.This reported history was confirmed by Balboni, who is a friend of the fourth owner – prominent architect and Lamborghini collector Terry Tusher – and he has previously driven this car while holidaying with Tusher.EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONSAn ‘S’-specification model, this Jarama comes equipped with the reworked exhaust system, heads and carburettors, giving it a claimed power output of 365bhp in period.

As a result, the Grigio Londra metallic finish is in excellent condition, with only a few very minor blemishes around the vehicle.All of the chrome trim has also been re-plated, and the rubber door, window and bumper seals have been replaced.Inside, this Jarama S is in superb order, thanks in part to a complete retrim and replacement of its carpets.Minor faults include an inoperative air-conditioning system, a faulty radio and an issue with one of the door locks. There are no known mechanical faults.While it is exempt due to its age, the car’s last MOT test was conducted on 20 April 2018 at 121,941km, which resulted in a clean, first-time pass.

om Lamborghini
Åh, den heta historien om Lamborghini, en sann ikon född ur gnistorna av frustration med det springande hästens märke! Föreställ dig själv i början av 1960-talet, en tid då bilvärlden dominerades av sådana som Ferrari. Och där kommer Ferruccio Lamborghini in i bilden, en framgångsrik traktortillverkare och en man med en passion för kraftfulla maskiner.

Akt 1: Frustrationen (1963)
Ferruccio, stolt ägare till flera Ferraris, fann sig missnöjd med kopplingen i sin 250 GT. Frustration drev honom rakt in i Enzo Ferraris kontor för att ventilera sina klagomål. Mötet gick inte som planerat, med Enzo avfärdande Ferruccios bekymmer och föreslog att han skulle hålla sig till att bygga traktorer. Tja, det var som att vifta med en röd flagga framför en tjur.

Akt 2: Lamborghinis Födelse (1963)
Driven av en blandning av frustration och beslutsamhet beslutade sig Ferruccio för att ta saken i egna händer. År 1963 grundade han Automobili Lamborghini. Hans vision? Att skapa grand touring-bilar som rivaliserade, eller till och med överträffade, Ferraris erbjudanden.

Akt 3: Banbrytande Modeller (1960-talet-1970-talet)
Och så började Lamborghinis legend med lanseringen av Miura 1966. Designad av Marcello Gandini var detta mittmotoriska mästerverk en pionjär, världens första riktiga superbil. Med en V12-motor monterad bakom föraren satte Miura standarden för prestanda och stil.

Efter Miuras framgång introducerade Lamborghini den ikoniska Countach i början av 70-talet. Marcello Gandini arbetade återigen sitt magi och födde ett kilformat underverk som blev ett affischbarn för en hel generation. Countach var inte bara en bil; det var en bilrevolution.

Akt 4: Designmästarna
Bakom kulisserna spelade designers som Marcello Gandini och senare Giugiaro avgörande roller för att forma Lamborghinis distinkta estetik. Gandinis arbete med Miura och Countach befäste Lamborghinis rykte för djärva, kantiga designer som utmanade gränserna för bilsstyling.

Akt 5: Arvet och Moderna Underverk
När decennierna rullade på fortsatte Lamborghini att innovera och producera ikoniska modeller. Diablo, Murciélago, Aventador och de mer moderna Huracán och Urus bär alla Lamborghini-DNA - en perfekt blandning av kraft, prestanda och omisskännlig design.

Epilog: En Häftig Rivalitet
Lamborghini-Ferrari-rivaliteten blev legendarisk och drev båda företagen att pressa gränserna för bilteknik. Lamborghini, född av frustration, framträdde inte bara som en konkurrent utan som en pionjär, som ledde vägen för mittmotoriska superbilar som fortsätter att fängsla entusiaster över hela världen.

Så, där har du det, den episka sagan om Lamborghini - en berättelse om frustration som förvandlades till en symfoni av dånande motorer, eleganta designer och ett arv som för alltid förändrade landskapet för högpresterande bilar. Hej då!
