Why it’s here

The case for
this one.

This is a 1981 Lamborghini Countach LP400 S Series II, finished in Arancio over tan leather with gold telephone-dial wheels and no rear wing.

The longitudinal 3.9-litre V12 makes 261 kW. It drives the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox mounted ahead of the engine between the seats.

Flared arches and wide Pirelli tyres give the LP400 S its stance, while the wingless tail keeps the original wedge remarkably clean.
