The Attractions
In the second half of the 1960s, Autozodiaco of Bologna decided to start producing dune buggies, which were very popular worldwide at the time, launching its 'Jumper' range. And we are sure that few Autozodiaco could jump so high and run so fast as this fantastic 1972 model, which is equipped with a 1.7-liter air-cooled Porsche 914 flat-four engine.
This extraordinary discovery is made even more appealing by its excellent condition, with a shiny purple paint and a four-seater interior with two-tone upholstery. It is truly a unique car, capable of making us relive the 'cool' atmosphere of the 1970s summers.
The odometer shows only 2,800 km and this vehicle has had only two owners since new. Its technical specifications include two 40 mm double-barrel carburetors, a pulse fuel pump, and front disc brakes. The inspection is valid until June 2027.
