[quote=Martin350]I hope you guys don't mind me posting these old photos with registration numbers in, but I thought they may be of interest to some, given what's been previously talked about.

Well....if you have F920 OYR, F924OYR, F925OYR and F928OYR, looks like we need a complete set, so you need:

F919OYR (at Goodwood)
F922OYR (randomly drove past me in Lots Road in London)
F923OYR
....and F926OYR (at Silverstone Historic Festival subsequently wing removed and destroyed I believe)

Sorry to say that F927OYR is a red Jalpa and F921OYR is red, but I can't find it immediately! Well, 9/10 'aint bad.









MORE PHOTOS PLEASE!!!

Someone was asking about the 14 UK RHD 88.5 Countachs there were: this thread contains both black ones, one blue one (the other blue one is for sale at DK Engineering) then F919 920 922 and 924 are four of the red ones and F926 is one of the white ones, which makes 9. Then there are four more white and one more red. Anyone got any pictures of these...?

The photos from 1989 are amazing: wow. Anyone else got any photos that haven't been on the web before, from back in the day?

I don't see one for sale at DK? I think there was one a few weeks ago, maybe it was that one?

see Page 5 of their vehicle archive exactly half way down on the right it's sold. They did have it, then sold it, then it went to the Lambo 50th in Italy, then they had it for sale again, then they sold it!!

I think that might be the one i saw in Carrera Sport having some major engine work done.

From what i was told the buyer paid top money for a top notch car but it turned out to have many problems and was sent to Mike to be sorted. Certainly not a car worth what it was sold for IMO

......... of course it might be another car in a similar colour and just a coincidence / mistake on my part(?)

Wow. Nice selection. Loving the Anniversary with the storm clouds behind it. When was the Portman Lamborghini shot from?

Portman pics must have been around 1988. I have more of cars inside and Black Countach 5000s out back. Will see if I can find them.

It was signed by Mr P Zonda. He loves the Countach as he worked for Lamborghini on the final version 're the development of carbon fibre and composits for the Anniversary. This was before he went off and started his own car company. He saw it at Top Gear live as he had a stand there also. We met shook hands and he complimented me on my car, signed a Zonda poster too...I have it on video somewhere!

All in all a great day at the show...oh especially when I went and borrowed all the show girls for a quick photo shoot round my car haha.
