The Espada Turns 50

This year, Lamborghini has been celebrating the 50 th anniversary of the iconic Espada. This month, the brand toured the 1976 Espada (owned by the Lamborghini Museum) around London’s iconic automotive locales. Lamborghini explained that the first stop “…was the historic headquarters of the Royal Automobile Club (RAC) in Pall Mall, founded in 1897 and considered the cradle of English motoring.”   Continuing on their journey, “…the Espada then traveled to the legendary Abbey Road, where… in August 50 years ago, the Beatles recorded their timeless song ‘Hey Jude’ at the famous Abbey Road Studios: a symbolic London site and one of the city’s most popular tourist destinations. In reference to the cover of the well-known Beatles’ album Abbey Road (1969), the Espada was photographed on the pedestrian crossing situated right in front of the recording studio.” Check out the awesome photos from this British tour, and test drive a new Lamborghini today at indiGO Auto Group’s Lamborghini Rancho Mirage on the Desert European Motorcars Campus or at Lamborghini Houston.
