Given that the Landau had only just been released (Aug '73) & they would not have built the 200 required & that the Landau had the 2V headed motor didn't seem to matter.

According to the Production Figures table at the following link Dr Terry, they apparently manufactured some 258 Landau's in the months preceding October 1973. But I definitely agree with you that using the thing's brakes, but not its carb and manifold, was a case of questionable cashew-picking.
That cotton-pickin' Supercar Scare has got a lot to answer for...
