SUMMARY
A very special Lamborghini, the ultra rare DL25 Frutetto, fully restored as part of the BBC TV show, Tricked out Tractors.
DESCRIPTION
- The DL 25 was one of Lamborghini's most successful tractors, with over 900 examples built
- Powered by a 25bhp, 2.5-litre, two-cylinder diesel engine coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox
- Much rarer, the Frutetto, (Orchard Tractor), is one of just 216 or so ever made and this gleaming example is likely to be the very best surviving today
- It's owned by Mr Petrolheadonism, Ciro, whose passion for all things Lamborghini precedes him, and he wanted this tractor restored to be as it would have been when brand new
- Full nut and bolt restoration in 2021 by the team at Tricked Out Tractors, BBC Northern Ireland
- It was a race against time for the Tricked-Out team of Darren Bailey, Tylor Cartin and Stephen Lennon, with the 70-year-old tractor expected to take centre stage at a Lamborghini Club UK event.
- It was a comprehensive restoration, with the tractor stripped right down before finally being rebuilt and refinished in Lamborghini Trattoria Rosso
- With the restoration complete, it was time to ship the Frutteto back to England ahead of the special event where the guest of honour was Fabio Lamborghini, the nephew of company founder, Ferruccio
- Mission accomplished, this stunning, rare tractor is now for sale and is available for your close inspection at our Wheeler Dealer sale
