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!
No, you're wrong James - wrong I say
I take it you can see the pictures now then?
I concur, the countach just doesn't look right without the wing

The price seems to have moved by £10k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
They stuck it on Autotrader at #45k and claim not to have had much money in it at that price....by bunging another #10k on it - that's a nice healthy profit. They were aware that it was significantly cheaper than some of the other cars available for sale, but equally it is a colour combination that won't suit everyone and the recent history is with a specialist that I haven't heard of in lambo circles....but then I'm no expert....

That car sold about a week ago for the asking price.. my friend brought it and the car needs a little work but it was a good deal.. i guess leaving the car on Top Marques is giving him good publicity so it will probally be on there for a while...
But this advert is on PH and claims the car is on the south coast - is this another scammer?...The photos are those taken by Albert at Martin Ingham's.
Did your friend pay the £45k asking price or the £55k that the car jumped to a couple of days after it first appeared for sale?
Out of interest, what work did it need? Inghams had the rear bumper painted didn't they? Its history for the last 2 years shows servicing at a place in Eccles - are they a Lamborghini specialist?
Another LCUK Member has his Anniversary serviced and generally fettled somewhere in Eccles...
BIG NEWS - to quote one of THE Lamborghini specialists in the UK, "they are just nuts and bolts like any car - it's what you do with the nuts and bolts and how well you do it that makes a difference - especially with the older Lamborghinis"
Martin Ingham is NO scammer, imo - he has a good and I believe, well deserved reputation for selling pretty decent motors even if it's a little difficult to locate the premises the first time you visit - and I'm pretty familiar with the area having lived close to there most of my pre-'grown-up' days

No way was I suggesting he is...but since the PH advert shows the car on the south coast and Martin's several hundred miles north of that, it makes me wonder whether this guy is just flipping the car....I have no issue with that...just want to make sure it's not another one of those scams that we've seen recently on PH....
It now has a price - £69,000 
that's going to net the vendor a profit of either £24,000 or £14,000 dependent on whether he paid the initial price or the price it jumped to a few days later. Nice work if you can get it....
David - if that owner is a guy named Aubrey, this blue car was his car....

dear all
words fail me - hold tight and I'm sure whoever has or had the car will be asking for somewhere like £evenmore one of these fine days... (insert laughing smiley here)
I have no idea who the vendor on the south coast is - perhaps he's bought the QV from Ingram's and is now seeking a bit of an added bonus or else all the travelling up and down from Lancashire to Hampshire has caused his brain to get all mushy inside the casing... I dunno. (insert long row of laughing smileys here)
'suppose I should just add, again, that I have an almost unique in the UK early-spec. Jarama S without the big-gurl power steering or the big-softie quiet exhaust. It's for sale for £40k, even if people don't want to buy it, it'll be £45k soon enough especially if it keeps travelling distances at some speed and barely heats up - Forza Kermit the Raging Bull(frog)... (insert a page full of laughing smileys here)

ah! well, as it 'appens the chap I was referring to has an Anniversary that's very metallic dark rd in colour, which is very original but very originally needs a complete repaint... and which he'd probably let go for £45k to allow for the buyer to pay for the paint... fairly recent engine rebuild at Carrera Sport as well...
Jarama S now at £45k, told you this would happen...

Have you seen that then white one off E-bay has turned up at Coys auction at Brands Hatch! It's on the 27th May so it will be interesting to see what that goes for. You never know, they say there's one born every day.
Yes I saw that - high reserve?
Of course it'll have a high reserve. It always did on ebay.
