    Lamborghini should buy it back for their museum... that way it's continued condition is assured, and everyone will have the opportunity to see it, rather than it go into a private collection, maybe never to be seen again

      Every manufacturer stores a minimum of 2 of these bound to be future classic vehicles. One In the most simple and pleasing to the eye exterior and interior choices and one in their most stand out & eye opening design packages. With each vehicle receiving EVERY possible piece of optional extra. Both Kept for the history of its brand.

    I love how so many people miss the point of this story. The previous owner decided to keep this car as one would a great piece of art, he did a fantastic job of preserving it and today it is likely the only example to give the next buyer the experience of buying a New Countach until time travel is invented that is. Kudos to the previous owner for having the funding to do this, he already had a driver example to use. This car is a testament to the 80s time period of design and should be shown in a museum or exhibit but to use this car and put wear on it would be a tragedy. Thank you Tom for sharing an incredible story. I hope the new buyer buyer sees this opportunity the same way you do.

    Never liked the overweight looking 25th anniversary. It is gaudy, even for a Lamborghini. If it was a 5000QV in this condition it'd be worth the $700k that the collector thought this one could be. I think that's why this one in pristine condition is only 400k. If i was the owner I'd hold onto this for about another 5-10 years to see if it goes up in value.

    27yrs. Put away.
    Let's say a modest $300 a month storage fee x 12
    X 27 yrs. = $97000 😮

    Do not get why ppl buy cars just to store them, they gotta be driven, there are other ways to make money instead of storing cars for years

    i noticed a few things that don' t add ,up the inside carpet is not original.the tires are original, the rest interior looks good excellent except the side sills or scuff plates, too many scratches where it wrights Lamborghini they forgot to change .the motor has new leads ,my car has about 18000km but i'm still running the original leads and they actually burn out if you use them they should be new on a car like that not red ones. all the water hoses look like they have been changedi can not see the red line pirelli hose. A few years ago i'll tell you a story ,i wanted to buy a Testarossa . and it suppose to have 17000km on the clock. the sales man said to me they change that and that.when he oped the bonnet or hood ., i told him straight out this to me looks like is done 117000. i have a lamborghini with 13000km and when you open the bonnet it looks new, this looks like sh_t! he walked away from me straight away. if the camera was not moving so much i could tell you even more things.I'm sorry to say this car to me looks like its been rebuilt, good job but!

      Wrong. In Italian, the right pronunciation is KOON-tuck but in English most commonly pronounced KOON-tash
