Yeah its an IXO but for those interested there is a higher quality one from Make Up models out soon. I just had to jump the gun though.

As I mentioned a few posts ago in speaking about the ex-5 Star Blu Speciale car in England (now in Scotland), "another identical car in RHD also exists in the Far East as posted earlier in this thread.."

This car was discussed about a month or two ago in this thread with detail images shown. We are not sure if it was originally delivered to the UK, or directly to Malaysia, which is a legitimate question because almost all the half-a-dozen or so Malaysian Countachs are all ex-UK RHD cars.

5 Star owned 3 Countachs: 1987 QV in white, 1988 1/2 QV in black, and Annivesario in Blu Speciale. The black 88 1/2 belonged to one of the girls in the group.

Again this was discussed in some detail about a month or so ago..

IIRC around that time money was being spent at a vast rate, could be why it went to Malaysia.. Will look back through this thread to see.

To clarify, the ex-5 Star car is the one in Scotland registered L 500 UFO.

Countach, the ultimate supercar

The other car in Malaysia is not determined as having been delivered to the UK although this pic taken by PC in 1993 in London makes me think that L 345 DPB is not the ex-5 Star car and in fact is the one in Malaysia.

i agree
a very nice, all original 400S would cost you not few $, expecially in Europe (if you can find a really good one for sale..we often forget that there are not so many around....they are not 308 GTS)
this white SII looks nice in pics, may be Raymond can tell us more on its conditions

the few countach S for sale in Italy (SII, SIII) have asking of well over 160k euro (and most of those are far to be perfect or all original...

)

this is why some 400S came from US to Europe in last couple years
the black-black SII car that was sold to Swiss is just one of those, it was a good deal for an euro buyer

with time and a bit of luck, i believe you could still find a similar one in US for something less (considered the small number of cars, i would not be to picky on colors though...

)

i do not believe they are going to be cheaper in the long run, more likely the opposite
