Can we not call this the super countach now? I have said it for years, but this pretty much confirms it!! Incredible is all I have to say.
I have something special I can contribute about my particular example shortly........... Keep up the great detective work. FIA acceptance is a GIANT compliment and a shocker of a discovery IMHO.

Hi Joe, I have always wondered which car B967MLN is - do you know? I know B987MLN, but have never quite worked out B967. Great new thread. If you need info or pics of the RHD cars, happy to help! Robert
5 RHD QVs were officially imported directly to Australia in RHD. Red/bla black blue white red/light Suspect if article is October 1985, probably the first car. If you can see the article in full, the interior colour will tell you. Jamesark'll know where it is!
Before I forget, I meant to say I don't know what chassis number Pierluigi's car was, but, I came across a discrepancy. Look at the Sport Auto Car: red with tan interior, gold wheels, with EE.426.AK plates. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks Joe I very much LOVE my special DD. I believe that it is the only white with black interior DD in the USA. Please let me know if I'm wrong. Also originally owned and imported by the founder of what we call today Microsoft, Gary Kildall. I promise to post more pics of my DD, Valentino driving it and some with Patrick Dempsey in it when it was in Transformer 3. This is the only picture I have of it on my phone, resting safely in the garage. Image Unavailable, Please Login
