Official Countach Value Thread

Thanks Jim, Im on the site

 

Seems all the Lambo's are getting nice money. It will be interesting to see what the Miura's fetch tomorrow!

A 350GT sold earlier for $750,000.00 and a Series III Espada just hammered at $110k ($121k all in).

It's too bad there wasn't a 5000QV at any of the auctions. We had a Periscope, LP400S, 5000S and a 25th. It would have been interesting to see how they fell amoungst the others.

Where did the Countach at Russo and Steele end up?

 

Hasn't come across yet. Due up around 9:30pm

 

Hard to tell from their feed if it sold, but the opening bid was $200K and it stalled out. Got up to $225k and that was it.

I watched the live feed, it started ar $200k went to $225k then the feed jumped to a Lotus. I suspect the car got more than $225k, anyone know what happened?

 

Im with you, I was watching the feed and suddenly it staled. I watched a total of 2 hrs of the auction and it screwed up a couple of times so it could very well be the web site. It is a very non-informative web site.

 

I was there. The Countach ran much later than expected. It was so late that there wasn't anyone left to bid on it. It was a non-starter. No action on it... The car was immediately pushed off the block. Perhaps they will re-run it at a later time?

 

Very interesting choice to put this in R&S and run it at 10pm.

Anyone knows who owns it? What was the final bid?

 

Did the copper car have its tools and pouch? Im just curious what they looked like. The Periscopo did not have its tools and pouch, although apparently the catalog said it did, as they made mention of it during the auction. Has nothing to do with value, just curious what they look like.

 

R & S at 11 pm with about one week of time on their website and zero marketing is a bad combination.

 

At the current rate the QVs DD are in the $650K range and the injected somewhat less that is for decent cars,not car in the shape the 400s or the 400 sold in. These cars command premium it seems regardless of their state as long as they are not butchered.
the DD at emelia was in restrospect a very very good deal at $300K+. It seems you barely get an anniversary for that price now.
Worldwide, it seem everyone with a pretty penny is taking extasy for about 1 year when it comes to buy assets.

 

Was the LP5000S injected?

Seems that R&S would not be a first choice were I to want to sell one.

 

I am pretty certain it did, from what I understand the car came with everything it had with it when it left the factory.

 

Ouch & yes, it was carbed.

 

hey joe where are your numbers for the different variations today?

 

I bought the Russo and Steel Countach this AM post auction sale.
Loads on my truck back to Seattle today.

 

Way past my bedtime!

 

Let me think about that.

 

I ran just fine this AM, does have a bad water pump seal we found on it this AM.
Simple fix. All tools, books, spare and jack. Wrong radio, will change that
as well. All in all nice car and bought correctly

 

Congratulations Roy, all minor stuffs will be fixed soon...

please make better shoot pics presentation for your website than R&S...

 

Would really appreciate some feedback on the above as I am looking to sell this car please

 

I think its been a while since a RHD 88.5 car has sold publicly, and with the recent rapid ascent people are just getting their head around what values should be.

Having said all that, a set of pictures will help as a first step towards feedback.

 

Simon Furlonger is selling what sounds like a very similar one at the moment for £275k.

Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV For Sale | Kent, South East, Kent | Furlonger Specialist Cars

By way of comparison, he sold one around this time last year at £150k, as far as I remember - it was around the time I started looking for a CT.
