    Yes, this was a special order. And no, I haven't seen another green interior (which doesn't mean one doesn't exist).

    It was a mint green, quite light, not dark. The car was all Bianco Perlato with the silicone done in white, and was delivered to a gentleman in Essex (if I recall correctly) who special ordered it thus.

    Does anyone know the original delivery date and colour of 1120228 a RHD car subsequently converted to S specs, or indeed its whereabouts today?

    The white LP400s in Monaco is the later Pace Car!
    @Joe, we know that red QV - it's Emilio's.

    That's #1121212 isn't it?

    Missed your post. I have seen images of this car before, and I believe it was a mid-80s privateer mod, of which (thankfully) not another, or not many were made.

    Wasn't this car Turquoise instead of Blue as you described it?

    Note no Countach badge. One of Hubert Hahne's cars....

    it's reported that only 2 cars were modified, a red and a yellow one. The yellow one reported to have crashed (total-loss).
    No technical modifications, just optical.
    Here are some more pictures:

    Oh wow, thanks for sharing.

    Clearly for those who cant leave well enough alone.

    As an English journalist once wrote: "This car has absolutely no redeeming features whatsoever"

    Here you go, courtesy of Miura1! I think it still lives in the UK.
