1973 Lamborghini Espada Series II 400 GTE for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1973 Lamborghini Espada Series II 400 GTE is a used car showing 109,435 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Nero Cangiante with a Bordeaux Senape interior.

Officially the Espada 400 GTE, this Series II was first sold by the New York importer M.S.C.S. and has had three owners; its odometer reading corresponds to roughly 68,000 miles, probably original. It keeps its matching-numbers engine and wears its factory-correct pairing of Nero Cangiante with Bordeaux Senape hide, and a report by the Lamborghini historian Olivier Nameche accompanies it.

A few years back the paint was redone purely for appearance, the V12 went through a full rebuild and the cabin received new trim. The dealer finds the bodywork clean, free of rust and well aligned.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Lamborghini Espada Series II uses the 3,929 cc Lamborghini V12 with two chain-driven overhead camshafts per bank and six Weber carburettors, compression raised to 10.7:1, rated at 350 PS (257 kW) at 7,500 rpm, with a Lamborghini five-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels. The Series II, shown at Brussels in 1970, brought a new wood-trimmed dashboard, ventilated Girling discs and CV-jointed rear half-shafts. Marcello Gandini at Bertone drew the four-seat body.

FAQ

This Lamborghini Espada Series II in the European market

Is this Lamborghini priced above or below the European market?

At €125,500, it sits below the median of €303,542 for the 434 Lamborghini advertised in Europe in 2026. 1% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Lamborghini be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Lamborghini Espada Series II cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €16,791 in the United States, excluding options. This car is advertised at €125,500, 647% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1973 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Lamborghini compare?

109,435 km recorded, against a median of 7,714 km across the Lamborghini advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Lamborghini are priced closest to this one?

a 2018 car in Germany at €126,042, and a 1983 car in the United Kingdom at €128,640. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.
