Not seen one of these reps in ages.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lamborghini-Countach-50...
Was sold at Historics in their December auction 2020 , sold for £71,680 including commission which was crazy as it was for sale on PH

classified for £49,950 for weeks, and weeks, having owned the real thing i'm not keen on this type of replica but i must admit this is the best

one i've seen. Hasn't kept it long, Maybe a case of auction fever

Strange it says on E-Bay that the vender has owned the car for 10 years yet according to Historics results it sold on the

12th of December 2020, The photo's are the same on Historics web site as the ones on E-Bay so looks like it didn't sell

after all and they haven't amended the results, Maybe the successful bidder got cold feet or there's a problem with the car. confused

The ebay seller is obviously a trader if you look at their other items. They've just taken the text word-for-word from the Historics auction listing. The oddity for me is that the classified price is less than the supposed previous selling price, so they would be taking a loss if it sells. Something doesn't add up.

Yes it looks like he's pinched the photo's and the wording, a little lazy but if it works, He paid a high price as you can at auctions not wanting to

let go once you have got into the bidding frenzy,done it myself. forgetting the buyers premium which is 10% .

After having a bit of fun or not depending how it drives he may just want to get out of it and retrieve most of his money back.

You can buy a real Lamborghini for that sort of money, admit not a Countach.

Only thing that makes me think the car didn't sell is in the ad he states that the vendor not the previous one has owned the car

for 10 years .
