About the Lamborghini Jarama 400 GTS Blue Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 Lamborghini Jarama 400 GTS reproduces the 1974 front-engined grand tourer in blue diecast, a sealed one-piece body capturing Bertone's lines and the GTS version's distinctive bonnet bulge. A lesser-known but genuinely interesting 1970s Lamborghini subject.

Named after a bull-breeding region of Spain, in keeping with Lamborghini's long tradition of naming cars after fighting bulls rather than engineers or founders, the Jarama arrived as a shorter, sharper-edged grand tourer built on a shortened version of the Espada's platform.

The Jarama GTS and Lamborghini's Bull-Country Naming

A Shortened Espada Platform Under Bertone Lines

Rather than develop an entirely new chassis, Lamborghini shortened the underpinnings of the four-seat Espada to create the more compact, two-plus-two Jarama, a pragmatic engineering decision that let the firm offer a sharper-looking GT without the cost of a from-scratch platform. Bertone's styling, credited once again to Marcello Gandini, gave the Jarama a lower, more angular profile than the Espada it borrowed from, with a distinctive flip-up headlamp treatment and a wedge-influenced nose. That shared Espada DNA also meant the Jarama inherited a genuinely usable interior for its size, a practical consideration that mattered to buyers cross-shopping against Ferrari and Maserati GTs built with similar everyday ambitions.

What the GTS Added Over the Standard Jarama

The GTS designation marked a revised version of the car with increased power over the original Jarama GT, along with a distinctive power bulge moulded into the bonnet to clear the taller intake setup beneath it, a visual cue that lets an observer identify the GTS at a glance even before checking the badge. This 1974 example falls within that improved production run. Produced in relatively small numbers compared to Lamborghini's better-known models, a GTS in good order remains a comparatively rare sight even among dedicated marque enthusiasts, which lends this reproduction a certain quiet distinction.

Minichamps' Sealed-Body Rendering of a Front-Engined GT

The Power Bulge and Panel Lines on a One-Piece Casting

This Jarama arrives as a sealed, one-piece diecast body, doors and bonnet moulded shut rather than hinged. The GTS's distinctive bonnet bulge, a feature that defines the car's profile from the front three-quarter view, is captured as a raised, well-defined form rather than smoothed flat, and the surrounding shutlines run as single, continuous grooves rather than a series of slightly uneven hinge points. The flip-up headlamp covers, a signature Bertone detail, are rendered cleanly in their closed position, and chrome trim around the grille and rear light cluster, along with the Jarama's distinctive side vents, are picked out with the kind of edge definition that separates a considered 1:43 release from a basic toy-grade casting.

Blue Paint, Material and 1:43 Proportions

Zinc alloy construction gives the casting genuine heft for its compact size, and the blue finish sits on a hard metal shell deep enough to hold an even gloss under direct light rather than reading flat. At 1:43, the Jarama's shorter, more angular proportions compared to the Espada come through clearly, and wheel detail beneath the arches matches the period-correct offset, keeping the stance low and planted rather than artificially raised, a common shortfall on lesser castings at this scale.

A Lesser-Known Lamborghini Worth Seeking Out

The Jarama rarely gets the attention lavished on the Miura or the Countach, overshadowed by flashier mid-engined siblings despite offering a genuinely distinctive take on the front-engined GT formula. That relative obscurity is part of its appeal for collectors who want an early Lamborghini without duplicating the subject everyone else already owns. Displayed alongside a 400 GT 2+2 or an Espada, it shows the range of solutions Lamborghini explored for buyers who wanted practicality without entirely sacrificing drama. At 1:43, assembling that broader GT lineage costs little shelf space, and a blue GTS, correctly specified down to its bonnet bulge, is a satisfying piece to track down for exactly that reason.
