    As Emilio suggested correctly, it lives in England with Mike P in Hayward's Heath in good health, and last I spoke with him (a month ago) the car had been serviced and was being driven. More of a Maroon color than Purple, but definitely a departure from its original Luci Del Bosco with gold wheels. This is how it looks now.

    Yes agreed. I have no idea what he has done to it (other than adjust the suspension lower) but it is a 'quick' one...

    Thank you Emilio and Joe. Never knew that was Mike P's car. Incredible looking machine! Star of another Countach book from 1990/91.

    I was talking of 5000S, not QV! 370, 380, 390 are figures referring to 5000S engine hp power output with the sport exhaust and well tuned!

    Exactly.

    I have it good authority that there may be two. Anyway, it is a thing of acquired taste.
