    Thx Emilio, I think I wasn't very clear about my question but what does the number "1/2" mean?

    Grtz Dee.

    No unfortunately I do not, but the car frequently appears amongst gatherings of the JLOC (Japanese Lamborghini Owner's Club).

    Orange LP400 in South Africa cover article with comments from Bob Wallace. If the current owner concurs with the magazine's valuation and would consider selling, I would be more than interested in speaking with him. Still other worldly stunning.

    There should be a law against smashing Countachs (or rather against picturing them...).

    Well, the pictures were taken in Germany, we spotted a very low vehicle under plastic, and then we discovered that Countach,
    so we took away some plastic, lighted the car on fire, took some pictures, and we ran away!!
    I'm sure if we got cought, we would have been shot! It's 23 years ago though, and I'm still alive ;-)

    Ciao!

    Besides being driven that is of course..

    this was a former Dutch Countach, now in Switserland, looks familiar Raymond?

    Does anyone know this Countach with an unusual two tone interior? The EE plate indicates this is probably a 1976 LP400, build several weeks before the second Wolf's Countach S (there are only 42 numbers between the 2 plates).

    Indeed, the two-tone interior was rare, but at least a handful of cars had it. I know this car and it was supplied new to Japan - I will have to check the LP400 files when I can...

    Here's another one, was only present at sunny sunday.
    Car is owned by a friend of mine, and we cathed up on the way back,
    and I took some nice pictures along the way...
    Our only problem was that the Audi was limited at 250 km/h, the Countach went on like a rocket!

    Just had a new sportexhaust, great sound, and at one point I have even seen flames!!!
