Colour
Dark blue

The Lamborghini Jarama 400 GT offered here is a matching-numbers example retaining its original 3,929-cc V-12 engine and showing just 76,623 km from new. Delivered on 16 March 1971 to its first owner in Lugano, Switzerland, the car appears to have spent much of its life in Sweden before being acquired by its current owner, who commissioned a thorough recent restoration. The bodywork was refinished in dark blue while the original black leather interior was preserved.

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
