    FWIW the car on the cover of the Mel Nichols book is Geneva-registered with orange plexi lenses. The Shah's car had clear lenses.

    Is there a collector somewhere that has a version of each variant of countach as they evolved?

    Say... (forgive me if botch this and miss a few)...
    LP400***(my impression is a business mans car on his way to the office)
    LP5000***wide wheels and fender flares (impression is saying, Lets go raise some Hell!)
    then maybe a..
    88.5***(showing a glimse of the Anniversario to come)
    and finally..
    89 Anniversario***(impression of the countach decked out for a night on the town)
    I luv'em all!!!

    After seeing the photo of Richard's LP400 and Anniversario matching side by side, I think a poster of all of the varients side by side would be phenomenal.

    Does this poster( or photo) already exist?

    If a poster exists I haven't it yet but I do have a client who has each one of what you have mentioned plus an LP400S.

    Looks nice. If I am not mistaken that one has been for sale for a very long time.

    The problem is that many Anamera Ads dont get deleted. It actually sold quickly and is now UK-registered NFL 630

    I'm sorry however the blue interior does nothing for me.
    I looks like a dentists room, not pleasant.

    I love this baby blue Countach, is this the original color or a re-paint?

    Took the old girl up to a race circuit last night. Put some 'blue stuff' brake pads in on thursday night on recommendation of Harry Medcalf of EVO magazine and thought would try them out. Definitely better feel and improved stopping, but not a game changer. Sadly they sent wrong rear pads so on originals for rear and just using fronts.

    Here is a pic of my no 3 baby in the car. Any inappropriate comments will result in death ( in the traditional Italian way). Note this is a dirty countach pic as it did 120 hard miles last night.

    Would be nice to see some 'dirty' countach pics form over the other side of the pond. Or are your roads always clean?
