Taoist Report post Posted June 6, 2005 I'm selling my Rosso Red Countach. It has around 21,000 miles on the clock and is a daily driver. It has a full history and has been maintained over the last few years by Mike Pullen at Carrera Sport. It is in very good condition and runs great - no leaks and the Aircon works fine. It is a 1987 5000 Quattrovalvole and has a rear wing but does not have the ugly sideskirts. This is generally accepted to be the most desireable incarnation of the Countach. The interior is cream leather piped in red. I am selling this car because my intention when I purchased it was to only keep it for a few months. It was always a dream of mine and now that dream has been realised, I am selling up and moving on. I am looking for offers of £47,000. The car is based in Basingstoke, Hants, UK. If you are interested, please email me at [email protected] Thanks a lot Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taoist Report post Posted June 6, 2005 Are you planning to buy a new Lambo? No, I'm going to stick with my PT Cruiser, finish doing my house up and then maybe modify the PT a bit :twisted: I'm thinking of turbos, a big sports exhaust, a custom paint job, new rims and lowered suspension for a start.

Diablo_4_Ever Report post Posted June 6, 2005 Well, its your own decision of course and i respect that. But I prefer the countach :mrgreen: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taoist Report post Posted June 6, 2005 Well ultimately I prefer the Countach too but I want to go back to just one car and that means having something a tad more practical. Actually I quite like the Cruiser in that pic, mine is black with blacked-out windows though and would end up with purple flames on it.

abolfaz Report post Posted June 11, 2005 I know what you mean. I have a couple of toys that I purchased for short term enjoyment and now have to sell, it sucks. The worst part is torturing yourself trying to justify keeping everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst part is torturing yourself trying to justify keeping everything. Yeah I can't justify it any more, especially since I got a ticket for doing 113mph in a 50mph zone yesterday - I'm expecting to get banned from driving for a while.

Taoist Report post Posted June 13, 2005 No chance of that happening with the PT! Although I have done 115mph in the PT, let's just say it's a lot less likely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayanami Report post Posted June 16, 2005 This is exactly what I am looking for, and the price matches my budget...Too bad the wheel is on the wrong side...Having this monster bought in UK certified in France will be a nightmare...Sorry.

Taoist Report post Posted July 14, 2005 Right the Countach is definitely up for sale - it now has a brand new clutch and new clutch bearing so is even better value, heh. Any takers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 14, 2005 A Pt Cruiser? :vom: :vom: :vom: And your making fun of the 25th Anniversary? Its sad that your selling, because odds now, are that the car will find its way to another owner, and be trouble free for a long long time.

Taoist Report post Posted July 14, 2005 Yes I know, the next owner should get plenty of fun for little bucks. But I've had my fun with her and I wanna pay off my mortgage and finish doing up my house and then go into semi retirement. You might not like PT Cruisers but I love 'em. They're easily the best looking five seater, IMHO, plus I can fit an entire DJ rig in the back. They're extremely reliable and with the exception of the Countach, no other car I've owned has received so many compliments on its looks.

Inmo, it looks like the old cars Hitler used to cruise in. One of the ugliest cars ever designed inmo. They tried to give me one as a rental once, and i refused.
