Countach Anniversary at Martin Ingham - looks a good deal

[yellowvette]

I've bought my Countach and will be collecting in a week or less - so I'm not interested in this one. But several people have contacted me about getting a Countach, so maybe this will interest someone on here - Martin Ingham has a good looking Anniversary up at £45995, with 22000 miles and an unusual colour combo (interior is particularly eye-catching), it seems a very good deal. Most are over £60K now, so if this is a good car then someone will want to snap it up quick. Martin Ingham

HMMMMMMM!

[sclayto2]

Very hmmm. That is worth considering..

I am 99% certain that Martin Ingham had that exact same car for sale a couple of years ago. He definitely had one in Bonsai Blue and there can’t be many of those.

It does seem an absolute bargain at that price – although you would have to factor in the cost of a re-spray/re-trim nicer colour!!! That interior is

Each to their own. I actually quite like the interior TBH - it's different. Still prefer my cream piped red interior though

I couldn't find the car on the lambo registry though. Are the wheels kosher?...does anyone know whether the car is good too?

His Diablo VT seems sensible money too

[sclayto2]

The wheels certainly look right.

[yellowvette]

The wheels are right for an Anniversary. They should be OZ Racing split rims.

Ah - they looked like Gottis to me from the photos. I've mailed them for the chassis number - but then I also mailed Hairpin about the red car and received no reply....

[targaman]

The red one at the Hairpin Company ahs been sold. The apparently have a mint white one coming in but it will be priced at a higher level. I think the blue one looks lovely but I can't get up to see it for a few weeks now!

OK, perhaps I was a little harsh. I don’t think I could live with that light blue leather everyday though!

I'd go along with that Tom, but I would never want to use a Countach every day either
You're call on Hagerty Insurance was right on the money by the way. They were way cheaper than anyone else and with a brilliant package. I was telling my friends at my local Corvette meet last night and they were amazed. I think Hagerty will be getting a few more calls now

[rubystone]

Ingham did have the car for sale - the guy has chopped it in for another car.

Love the outside colour, the inside colour is absolutely hideous though and would have to go.

Glad I could help. I think Hagerty are going to do very well if they carry on providing the prices/service they have so far.

The price seems to have moved by £10k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

They probably got swamped with enquiries and realised it was a bit too cheap!

Hi I love both the interior blue and exterion PLEASE don't change the interior for cream and red pipping I think it is awful. Could you also if possible let me have the telephone number of the insurance company

Thanks

You've misunderstood - I said I like the interior on that car, but prefer the cream with red piping on my red Anniversary. Cream with red piping is awful? I think it looks superb:



Number for Hagerty Insurance is 08700 420 220.

Not surprised about the price hike though - that would have been the cheapest Countach around by a long way. Even the "suspect" seller on ebay wants £68K for his white crock - mind you he's got his head in the clouds

I have to say I prefer the red piping on yours. In fact all your car needs is ruddy great wing bolted on the back!
