Yes, ex-swiss car, present owner mailed this pictures some years ago.

 

OK, thanks for correcting and I'm sorry about that new Thread. It was late night yesturday but I should have try to find the Jarama Thread, sorry about that.

Anyway, good you've like the images. It defenitely was a great moment to see the car, first time closely. And really to hear and see the V12.

 

Does it sound great ?

 

Yep, really. The V12 sounds always superb. And the moment when you saw the engine is always superb.

And yep, the sound is something really incredible....
I wish someday to hear that inside the car, but maybe it will be remaing just a dream.

But what this thing makes so great (for me atleast), when you know there is none electronics in the engine or gearbox. Everything is pure mechanic. Nothing F1 or E-Gear gearboxes or traction controls or anything. Just the pedals, clutch, engine, gearbox, streering wheel and the driver. Everything depends on the driver. And that always can be heard also. LOVE IT.

 

i agree 110%

 

With one more week of patience, I've been rewarded this week end...
Yes #10528 runs well now and it has been so well detailed this time that I have no more trouble (oil & water temperature ) while driving it very hard on more than 200km...

Sami,
Let me know when you'll be in Belgium and I will make your dream come true !!!
Cio,

AGREED +10...
that's the reason why I was so terribly disappointed with my ex Gallardo...
all matters is a true car from old days & old school of driving...
not a joystick car that behaves instead of its driver... due to his lack of reactions...
I can't imagine what it will be next year with my Le Mans racer Islero...

 

Yep, this is it. Some wants those electronic things, and then is people like us, who doesn't like them. Fortunately Lamborghini and Ferrari offer a manual gearbox, if you don't want to play F1 driving style, but I really don't know is same thing anymore like old times.
I have allways said, fortunately there is a History, where we can still join these wonderfull cars, cars what does not come anymore.

I don't know is anyone seen this, but this is I think quite close what we are talking about here.
It really sounds incredible..... :O
I have difficulties to say it by words, but it's so unbelievable to see how much the driver is working, example the gear changing. It's rough work, the driver really must put the gear in, I don't know the clutch, but seems to be a bit heavy also. Just love that "DRIVING". Nothing comes for free, you must work your self. Love it. Even, that I have never driven cars like these, and probably never will. Still my oppinion is this.

By the way, it seems that Jarama has different gearbox than Countach had?

 

+1

I would not describe the ride as heavy. I'd rather describe it as lively: you really feel the gearchange, the steering, the clutch... The commands are firm on the good side of it: you have to work a little more than on a regular car but the reward is immense! On top of that, the feeling is very precise which adds to the pleasure.

Here is a little video that I made in my Islero:

All the best,

Ed.

 

definitively 2 different gearboxes...

 

#10246, very nice example is still for sale at :

http://www.azur-motors.com/annonces/vente-automobile/voir-voiture.php?id_annonce=426

only for 45.000 €, pretty cheap for its nice overall condition, compared to what we can see on some CH websites actually...

 

OK, thanks for the telling true facts about the driving feelings!
Islero really doesn't be so different, I think?

I've allready seen that clip, but never see too much of those.

 

OK so Countach had totally different (First down left, second up right), and Jarama, Islero, Espada had First up left, second back left, third up right?

Hope you understand what I mean.

 

Well, speaking about the steeringwheel for instance, the feeling is quiet a bit different from "350 GT/400 GT 2+2/Islero/Jarama GT/Espada S1 & 2" and the driving of a Jarama GTS or Espada S3 with the power assistance steeringwheel...
=> lighter
=> more direct at low speed
=> similar at high speed

All these models compared to a Jarama GTS feel more heavy in driving behavior, don't put words in my mouth...a Jarama has much more weight, similar to an Espada BUT while driving you have a reral feeling like if it is 500kg less...it turns immediately while you have it in 2 times with any of the previous models !

 

OK, an intersting facts!
Did you watched those video clips?
I think those clips can tell the all, no words needed.

I have said this a million times, but I really respect these cars, even that never driven these. Old Lambos from 350 GT to Diablo (especiality early Diablos); just so pure, clean thing, nothing unnecessary.

Certainly, this is an oppinion issue, defenitely.

 

Yes I already saw Dietmar's videos, good driving in Germany !
One day I will have to record a video too...
