1959 Lamborghini DL20 ‘Lamborghinetta’

Highlights

  • Restored between 2017 and 2018 by its previous owner, an experienced mechanic and collector
  • One of the rare last examples produced, in the classic orange and blue colour scheme
  • A rare DL20 with the first real Lamborghini engine
  • In excellent condition, perfect for exhibitions, museums and collectors

The Appeal

Lamborghini's little DL20, affectionately known as the 'Lamborghinetta,' looks irresistibly nice. But these tractors were designed for hard work and were the first to be equipped with engines manufactured by Lamborghini.
This is one of the last examples produced, so it correctly sports Lamborghini's iconic orange and blue colour scheme, also adopted by its bigger brothers. It was restored between 2017 and 2018 by its previous owner, an experienced tractor collector and mechanic. Since then it has been started up and used infrequently but regularly and only for local exhibitions.
Its condition is that of a vehicle kept with great care and affection and would be perfect for any collection or museum. The DL20 is one of Lamborghini's most fascinating classic tractors and this is certainly one of the smartest examples available.
