The Countach is a replica. A very good one

Lol. This is why we don't see many old MR2s on the road now. They all look like Ferraris and Lambos.

Is there a way other than checking the reg that you can tell? It fooled me!

Is it actually? Vehicle check returns a Red 5.0l Lamborghini Countach for the number plate H1TOD?

Year registered is 1998. Though not sure the accuracy or reasons why this might not be accurate.

Also pops up here with someone finding it as Vehicle Make/Model: MIRAGE REPLICA

Mirage did MANY replicas of the Countach.

Import? MOT History suggests a mixture of Kilometres and miles

It's also RHD, that's quite a rare import to occur I would have thought.

Yep. I know the owner. It has a TVR V8 in the back!

The 450 I hope?

That Hakosuka GTR though. If I won the lottery it’d be my first purchase...

Cleisthenes · 11 Jun 2019 at 09:32

Sort of cheating as it's at a dealer, but saw this on the way to work *drool*

crinkleshoes · 11 Jun 2019 at 10:09

Clk gtr?Ed: no, it’s something else

skaif · 11 Jun 2019 at 10:16

Looks like a Porsche?

Swinbag · 11 Jun 2019 at 10:23

Looks like a 911 GT1 Evo to me? Or very similar.

Nasher · 11 Jun 2019 at 10:31

Look like 911 headlights.

IAmATeaf · 11 Jun 2019 at 10:37

911 GT1 according to this link https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/porsche-911-gt1-the-grand-touring-meister/

Cleisthenes · 11 Jun 2019 at 11:25

Yeah a GT1, a couple have been made road legal but they're legit le mans cars :cool:

MikeTheNative · 11 Jun 2019 at 11:49

GT1 homologation rules were such a joke I don't understand why they even bothered. Make a race car and stick some indicators on it, they only had to produce a handful of them as well.
