Chassis Number 0172 is this UK market Grigio Metal car with Nero Leather interior, .

It is fitted with engine number 0110.

And is number 17049 of a limited series of cars.

Other Information: Delivered April 7, 1965 to March Gerini. For sale by auction at Coys 04Oct08, Estimate £75-90k. This particular example, one of approximately 130 produced, was originally sold to none other then the Bournemouth based Ferrari concessionaire Ronnie Hoare, a compliment to Lamborghini in itself, no doubt to see how the Lamborghini compared to the Ferrari cars of the day. In 1967, this car passed to Mr. Clifford Johnson of Sevenoaks who in turn sold 0172 to the well known connoisseur Mr. Ivor Halbert of Bristol in 1969. Halbert, a qualified engineer, embarked on the conversion of this motor car to right hand drive configuration. The only modification to the standard layout was the changing of the speedometer which at this time read some 15,000 kms to a UK milometer. Since 1969, this superb car has only covered a further 24,000 miles making a total mileage of some 35,000 miles from new. Purchased by its current vendor in 1972, this rare and very original motor car has been cherished and maintained by its current owners for the past 36 years and still retains all original features and interior. Accompanying the motor car is, as one would expect, an extensive history file with many early invoices both from the Lamborghini factory and Portman garages, the main UK agents for Lamborghini, a copy of the original Autocar test and report, many old MOT certificates and of course the current V5 document. A rare, if not unique, opportunity to purchase an extremely original and low mileage example of the superb Lamborghini 350 GT..
