    If 1120124 is now also in Japan and repainted, that could explain the confusion with 1120256. If you ever see 1120124 there I sure would like to see how it looks like now ;-)

    Very sharp observation about the air vents, I did not know that, another thing learned today! So it might very well be 1120124 in that book then right?

    Cheers,
    Marcel

    Yes Joe! That's the car, the registration plate is a sticker on the front bonnet, correct!

    There were 3 other LP 400's at that first meeting, the dark blue-gold Wolf Countach 1120202.

    Then there was a yellow one, with black Wolf wheel arches, and a yellow rear wing, still periscopa roof, Swiss plates, look like BL-95837.
    Could this be 1120200?

    And there was a black LP400 with wheel arches and a rear wing, also still periscopa roof on dealer plates F-04459 (I think that is from Frankfurt)

    Any idea's about these last two?

    Probably yes. F means Frankfurt, the car was advertised in the end of 1998. I had a phonecall with the seller, he was located near Frankfurt.

    Paul it is either November 1976 or November 1978 (I cant see clearly!). Please look, and I appreciate your help.

    In this picture it looks kinda yellow, but this car is Miura green with the chrome mirrors and proto lookalike silver front bumper.
