    Hi,

    No there is no such car there. However, as with the 410, a number of cars were taken out of Iran prior to the revolution. Perhaps the 275 was one of them ? It was not uncommon for the Shah to tire of a car, and either give it away or have it sold off. The Vanvooren bodied Buggatti was bought for something around $200 in the early 1960's in an auction and driven out of Iran.

    Regards,

    Ramin

    Yeah, unfortunately no dice on a 275 of any kind owned by the Shah in my literature...

    Impressive car collection, but his personalized monogrammed shaving kit didn't bring too much on Pawn Stars...

    As far as I heard from sources whom I really rely on, He used to have a 308, two Daytonas (one was a Spider) and a 308 GT4 too.
    I'm searching for pics and additional info.

    On 25th May 1957, the Spanish government presented to Shah Reza Pahlavi the very first Pegaso Z-102 berlinetta clothed by Carrozzeria Touring.

    Ref.19, the Berlinetta Touring Prototipo, with chassis number 150-0119 was sold to the Shah in 1957. This car was built in 1952 and shown at the New York Motor Show 1953.
