    I always thought it's S #1121442, delivered new to J. B. Automobiles, Paris, late January 1981.
    It might also be 1121446 that went to a Saudi Royal, or 1121388 to Germany originally. Less probable but who knows...

    Bob + LP400 in '73, I dare say someone here will know which chassis number it is...

    I understand the love for the wider arches and wings of the later cars but for me this is 'it', the Urraco style alloys and simple styling are perfect.

    can anybody explain the different series (s1-s3) for the LP400s?

    also I thought that the "low body" was because the physical dimensions on the body itself were lower and it went a bit further than low suspension work. is that right?
