Orange Countach is Norwich
Discussion
Spotted a bright orange Lamborghini Countach in Norwich yesterday around midday on Sweet Briar Road.
I'm hoping that it was the genuine article as it will only be the second time I've seen one on the road, but from the brief look I got at it, I suspect it may be a replica, albeit a good one.
Anyone else seen it or know anything about it?

hi, nope you wouldnt have seen this car a few year ago at the PHEA stand at Lavenham, it was back then burried in a garage up in scotland having not seen the light of day for many years.
it arrived in norwich 18 months ago and was soon put back on the road.
from what i know some of the car is made up of genuine lambo LP500 1975 parts, interior-wheels-all glass work-some of the bodywork, spoiler and so on which sits on a vw chassis heavily stretched and widened, powered by a ford engine.
the car was built back in 1984, by who no one knows but it is not a factory kit car ie prova or mirage.
this replica is driven most days ( so long as its not raining ) :0)
hope this info is of interest.
