    Too difficult to accurately determine from images.

    I THINK it is a car imported to Japan by Tomita Auto finished in Oro Longchamps (gold), but the images are 37 years old and the color is misrepresented making it look more bronze.

    Love this thread, thanks to everyone for sharing all the great photos and information.

    Does anyone know the whereabouts of my fathers old Countach 25th Anniversary?

    I believe it was originally sold new via Brian Wiggins at Bramshaw in Bournemouth (who soon after shared the concession with Portman) to local nightclub owner Richard Carr who also had some interest in an offshore powerboat racing team that used Lamborghini engines.

    The Countach was RHD, black with natural interior, no rear wing, almost identical to the photos of the Bramley car a couple of pages back. Carr lost his license and the Countach was sold by Bramshaw in 1993 to my father (Peter Tyer). He had it registered on the plates 1950 RT and kept it for around a year before trading it back to Bramshaw for a Dino GTS and Alfa SZ.

    I would love to know the whereabouts of this car as I'd eventually like to buy it back.

    Unfortunately I have no photos or any other useful info to go on.

    Thanks!
