Awful driving standards in the UK generally most people concerned about being on their phones, fiddling with sat nav, and making sure their projector headlights are about 3cm off the back bumper of the car in front.
Accidents will happen with any kind of car, in a Countach you do have to be extra-careful with the blind-spots, especially when driving at night, but you can't let any of this stop you from enjoying your vintage, classic, sports and supercars. I do believe this car will be repaired, and if it were mine this event would be the perfect excuse for a full Polo Storico rebirth.
Just incase anyone did not see this one @255K. A nice car. https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/1990-lamborghini-countach.567340/#post-146235782
This example looks odd to me. handbrake on the passenger side? https://www.classicdriver.com/de/car/lamborghini/countach/1989/564395
Maybe it was meant to be a rhd car? I’m more concerned about letting the little kid play with finger paints in the engine bay.. Gheez
Exept for the red paint on the inntakes,and its at this point non original ,heavy modified status, the EFI,looks pretty simple and clever,also if set up right,with all the benefits new EFI offers,also real exhaust all the way from heads,to tail, This car probably out runs every Countach out there.Cool rear color,on an Anniversary car. Not a car for the die hard original freak,but looks like a ton of fun.
Extensively modified by Al Burtoni's Milano Imports for Coca Cola distributor scion Chapman Root II. Don't know, but it's pricing is perhaps not a good comparo for standard-livery 25ths IMO as it is a special-order car in a unique (and perhaps subjective) color.
Infos about the above posted car: Blu Acapulco 25th Anniversario KLA12583, new to Chapman J Root II, scion of the famed Coca Cola bottling empire, ordered on the 19th of October 1988, delivered on the 24th of May 1989 with just 175 kms on the odometer, Blu Acapulco/Nero, ZA0CA05AIKLA12583, door keys numbered 1670, ignition keys numbered K7263. Joe, do you know why the hand brake is on the passenger side?
I posted that information a few weeks ago https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/posts/146139988/ & https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/posts/146139990/ I haven't a clue why the handbrake is on the other side, and I agree it not only looks odd, it's not very practical. I'll take the color but leave the mods. I was offered this car before it became publicly available.

Part of me says no as to the movie car. Seem to remember the rear quarter really damaged in that movie. But wow, everything else exact. So, yes.
interesting example. modern fuel injection few other odd modifications but its a low mile and relatively clean looking car. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1989-Lamboghini-Countach-25th-Anniversary/183514905877?hash=item2aba573d15:i:183514905877:rk:6f:0&vxp=mtr
