The Lamborghini Countach LP400 'Periscopio' restoration is almost finished and it is time to start the car up and see how it sounds and drives.
It has been a very rewarding process as seeing such an incredible car go back to its unique colour combination is hard to beat. Thanks to the restorers for the hard work and we cannot wait for more drives.

Fabulous colour, those seats were gorgeous, no air con in there?! 😂

@jcgabriel1569 3 года назад

The color really suited it!!! And I also like that you used the "proper way to reverse a Countach", as demonstrated by Jeremy Clarkson...

@stuffhappens5681 3 года назад

First generation periscopio’s are true works of art. All that tacked-on bodywork junk that came later was vulgar. No disrespect to Horacio Pagani but I’m simply not a fan of his work on the Anniversary edition. The Countach as originally designed may have been uncompromising, imperfect perhaps, but proportionally it was rolling mechanical artistry at it’s finest.

@studiocalder818 3 года назад

I totally agree, 110%. The current supercars seem vulgar to me; they represent a future that has now passed, not like the Countach and its contemporaries. (..Anyway, an Alfa GTV has its own unique characteristics, pleasantness, driving emotions, complicity with the driver, which tend it much more enjoyable to drive than a Countach 😊)

Lp400 looks great from some angles, but a bit awkward from others with the skinny rear tyres. I quite like the wheelarch extensions on the original S as they give the car a certain muscularity. Then they added the optional rear wing, which isn't to all tastes. Then came the bulge on the engine hood for the quattrovalvole. Then the side strakes on the anniversary and the dreadful bumpers on US cars which completely disfigured the design.

@@studiocalder818 - Agree! I own a mint GTV6 with 39,000 original miles. Truth be told I like the GTV that came before it better. However, my buying decision was influenced by budget. All old cars require an ongoing influx of cash to keep them running and looking good. Had I bought the GTV in beautiful rust free condition like my GTV6 there wouldn’t have been enough money leftover for the inevitable expenses. I believe my GTV6 is one of the best examples of a driver in the world. Yes, it has unfortunate safety bumpers, but the Busso V6 is buttery smooth and makes all the right noises. Sometimes compromises are worthwhile!

Gosh stunning colour combination, I prefer the styling of these early cars, seeing it now it must of been as or more radical in the day than the current models are now. Looking forward to one of your full videos on it!

IMHO the "proper" Countach before they got middle aged spread and padded shoulders. Pity they couldn't get the original design prototype to stop overheating... :)

Absolutely stunning restauration! But drowning the sound of the V12 with elevator music should be considered a crime against humanity.

@johnmcdermott5505 3 года назад

Stunning exterior color but needs a contrasting interior IMHO. Matching exterior and interior colors never quite line up in hue and end up looking awkward together.
