The Attractions
While manufacturers such as Lamborghini had hitherto dedicated themselves to producing cars for the thriving GT segment, in the early 1970s, luxury car manufacturers began to take an interest in smaller sports cars. To compete with the Ferrari 246 Dino, the Maserati Merak and the Porsche 911, Ferruccio Lamborghini shifted his focus from V12 engines to a new range of V8-powered cars.
Designed by the late, great Marcello Gandini, the Urraco debuted at the Turin Motor Show in 1970 and in 1972 the first cars began to be delivered to customers. With a V8 engine mounted transversely behind the cockpit, the Urraco had two more cylinders than most of its mid-engined rivals, yet still offered a well-balanced chassis.
This 1975 Lamborghini Urraco P250 with serial numbers and colours matching the original specification has received a complete restoration and recent service. The seller reports that it runs perfectly and is very pleasant to drive and ready to go. The car is registered with the ASI and comes with its 'Certificate of Historical Significance'.
Only 791 Urracos were built, so don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity to make this truly excellent example your own.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| €0 to €9,999 | €100.00 |
| €10,000 to €49,999 | €250.00 |
| €50,000 to €99,999 | €500.00 |
| €100,000 + | €1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
