This is one of the just 66 Urraco P200s ever produced specifically to dodge Italy’s punishing tax system of that era.
The entry-level Urraco P200 was using essentially a destroked 2.0-litre version of the P250’s V8 engine, producing 180hp and 130lb ft (176Nm) of torque. These cars were destined only for the Italian market to avoid the heavy taxes implied on cars with above 2.0-litre engines, competing with the Ferrari Dino at the time.
The car we have here is a matching-numbers Urraco with 37,000km on the clock (around 23,000 miles). It was imported from Holland to Greece a few years ago, where it received a thorough mechanical refresh, including the removal and overhaul of the V8 less than 600 miles ago.
All four Webers were rebuilt and the cooling system was refurbished with the seller claiming that the car is ready to drive immediately. The orange paintwork is an older repaint in good condition with only a few small chips on the driver’s door and a scratch on the side mirror.
The cabin is reportedly all original apart from a period-correct Pioneer cassette player. The only thing missing is the sun visors but apart from that everything looks sharp and well-cared. All the gauges and power windows work as they should, with the passenger’s window only going half way down.
This 1976 Lamborghini Urraco P200 is a rare sports car with a royal name attached to it. With only 66 ever built, finding one in such condition would be difficult to say the least. If you have a Lambo itch that needs scratching, head to Bring A Trailer now and place your bid.
