As title says Lamborghini found in the Lake district after 30 years in barn, interesting story

on Jonny Smiths , "The Late Brake Show " video channel, Title "Barn Find Lamborghini Survivor-Abandoned 30 Years Ago"

Could be longer as he stated that it has been in the barn for four decades ,confused

Nice touch ,still has Portman rear window sticker.

Sorry haven't got a clue how to link .

Looks like this one won't live again though...

That's the car sold for £26,350 plus commission on "Collecting Cars" a couple of weeks ago ,one of two offered

by the same owner ,the other being the brown automatic one.

Unless there are some serious hidden problems it looked worth saving,

Suppose to them it's worth more selling for parts than restoring it ,after all that's what they do.

So you buy this at auction, what happens if the original owner pipes up after all these years to claim the car? I assume, due to the length of time passed, legal title passed to the barn owner..
If they have an address which in this case i doubt they would have to write warning of their intentions or put a ad in a local paper maybe,

We assume the arrears that's mounted up plus the disappearance of the owner would be reason enough to give the title over.
