1966 Lamborghini 2R
Highlights
- Offered in original, unrestored condition
- Running, driving and all functions working including a three-point linkage and PTO
- An excellent candidate to preserve or restore
The Appeal
Ferruccio Lamborghini didn’t make his money selling supercars.
The very reason he was able to start Lamborghini Automobili, with its huge plant and cutting-edge equipment, was that he’d already made a name for himself as a highly successful tractor manufacturer.
This Lamborghini 2R left the factory in 1966 - the same year the Miura came out. Imported to the UK, it’s a remarkably original example offered in delightfully patinated order. The vendor comments that the engine starts “on the button” and the tractor’s power take-off and three-point linkage work exactly as they should.
For those seeking an original, complete running example to preserve or restore, this would be a superb candidate.

- The exhausts pipe looks to be a recent replacement item in the original style
