For Sale Didier Pironi Lambo Offshore Race engine

Hi guys.

This is a very very unique opportunity to aquire the coolest garage or office art possible. This is one of the two original fuel injected race engines that were in the European U.I.M Class 1 (also called Offshore 1) race boat «Colibri» of Didier Pironi, which flipped in a race outside Monaco in the early 90-ies, causing a fatal accident that put an end to the life of world champion Pironi.

Used for display purpouse for many years. It was in service and running after the accident until the boat was taken out of racing some time later.

This is a homologated 8,2 liter «big block» Lambo V12 (about 50% larger on the outside than a Countach engine).

Sold with the engine stand with the wheels as seen in these pictures. Also has original stainless steel Italian exhaust headers.


This is a piece of European boat racing history that is impossible to find anywhere else!

Please call or text me on +47 97776672 If you have serious interest in this engine.

Grazie.
Erik Eriksen

 

Thank you!! I will

 

Thanks. I might have mixed it with that other accident. So long time since it happened and I was not old enough to catch it before years later. Thanks anyways for the clarification.
