One of the rare gems on display is this 1970s Lamborghini Jarama 2+2 Grand Tourer.

Built between 1970 and 1976, the Jarama got its name after a certain bullfighting region in Spain. However, people say that Ferruccio Lamborghini was concerned about a possible association with the Jarana racing circuit near Madrid.


A more practical concern came when Lamborghini had to abandon their plans for redesigning the Islero, and decided to build the Jarama in the first place, in order to meet US safety and emissions regulations back in 1970.

Though widely considered as a "Mk2 Islero", the Jarama is actually built on a shortened Espada platform, and in spite of its 1,450 kg weight, it had the same top speed as the lighter Islero.


Original models such as this one, came with a 3.9-liter V12, good for roughly 353 PS. However between 1972 and 1976, output was raised to 370 PS when the GTS version came out.

The fact that out of the 176 Jaramas ever built, one made its way to Goodwood, is a real treat for classic GT fans and perhaps Lamborghini fans in general. In order to take a proper peak though, visitors need to head over to the Cartier Style et Luxe lawn.
