    Very nice video, thanks a lot. The person who is interviewd looks like Luc Donckerwolke, the Murciélago's designer.

    Agreed the Countach is very special. It's an event every time I take the beast out. Has way more power than I originally felt with lot's of gas peddle travel to squeeze all the ponies out. With all of the Down Draft Weber butterflies open at 6000 PRM it makes an amazing and unique noise that I never heard any other car make. I enjoyed the 6 spd Orange/all Orange Murci Roadster for the 10 months I owned her. Not many open Lambos ever made so it's also a special car.

    That's the most unusual Countach replica I've ever seen..

    And now for something completely different, but Countach related. Since they really don't make Countach shirts anymore , I had one made (part of a Bday present from my Dad) . I still need to adjust the artwork a little , but it came out better then I expected . I need to make the back bigger and do some outlining so I can put it on a black shirt. I have no intention on selling these, I just always wanted a shirt like this.

    Which confirms my theory that dealers who have cars in the public domain "not for sale" are full of it.

    Great idea!

    If I may share some have here is a source for those who want to order ready-made Countach tees. They do a variety of designs.

    The Countach with the Diablo seats, actually looks pretty good. Better than the electric seats they put in that car.

    Anniversario single-piece sports seats are unobtainable, so he installed these instead.

    What has happened to the driver's door mirror? I've blown the image up and still can't figure out what it is!

    Remember it's the driver's door (RHD) :). I don't think I've seen this silver 25A before. There can't be that many in the UK. I have seen one a few years ago but it had normal door mirrors. There was also a silver 25A with blue interior, again with normal door mirrors.
