RE: Time For Coffee? Countach!

[PascalBuyens]

Makes you wonder though... Would you REALLY go to McDonalds in a white Lambo?


(Seeing there are some other nice cars in his garage/shop too...

Since when have supercars been about how they drive. Impact is all.

If that was true then we would all be driving round in MR2 based Ferrari replicas!

There's original art, then there's poor knock off art.

Stunning film. Love the passion... Wouldn't mind a peek at some of the other cars in the garage...

The guy who posted the Countach vid on vimeo has also done a collection of 1970s Ring crashes at Adenauer Forst. It's pretty awesome. Not one driver is wearing a helmet. Most do a full flip!

Without spoiling the best bit, keep your eyes open at 1:50 for the funniest crash you've ever seen.

Love the Lambo but is that a 250 GT Lusso it shares a garage with? Can anyone identify the ferrari if i'm wrong?
Very very nice collection btw

Also, MR2 based replicas don't have 455bhp V12s.

[Crimp a Length!]

He obviously has some wedge based on his garage collection.
Yeah the Ash is lovely have to say

Cannonball Run 2 opening sequence
This four minutes of film was where my whole petrolhead fascination began. A red Countach found a home on my wall.

Same here. That noise.

Used to drive these 'back in the day '.
We had two on the hire fleet back in '87.
Awesome to look at but not my favorite things to drive around london town.very difficult in town as you can't see any of the corners the clutch is heavy and the gear change not that great.out on the open road the main problem is other drivers who cannot drive in a straight line while gawping at a lambo !

Ditto.

[Adz The Rat]

Fantastic video, so well done. Brilliant editing and the subject is just perfect.

The Countach really is one of the best looking supercars ever, so much drama and impact.

I still do prefer the looks of the early Diablo though.

Im so lucky to see both cars everyday, 1 each side of my desk

[pjac67]

I feel like Cinderella - 5'8" and size 9 feet. This could prove expensive (I wish).

Stuff the big macs - if you ate 1/day for life you'd spend more than buying one of these...(You wouldn't be able to fit in one anyway...)

I love the opening credit music to the film!!!

Just said it was cheesy. Didn't say I didn't like it

The flypast at 1:34 in the vid still gives me goosebumps.

[DeltaEvo2]

Ahh...those were the days...

but what about this Fiat X1/9...
