    That purple LP400 / Countach is famous. It was/is Simon Kidstons car and has been featured in articles recently.

    Think it's a different car. Different plate and it's a RHD.

    Countach register tells me it's a Dec 1975 LP400.

    Type: LP400
    Chassis n?: 1120070
    Motor n?: -
    Prod n?: 35
    Color: Bleu Notte
    Interior color: Bianco
    Consignment date: 02/12/1975
    Destination: Gaue
    Country: Malta
    License plate: 75-LK-11002 (IRE)

    Lamborghini Countach LP400 1120070 2nd RHD chassis number supplied new to Malta. 2nd of 22 RHD LP400 worldwide. Finished in blu with bianco/blu leather and unknown to most of us until auctioned by Bonhams in 2014, despite having been back in the UK since the 1990s.

    There were only two purple LP400 Countach's made.
    One owned by Simon and the other is in my workshop.
    Its a great car and unfortunately the owner wants it back next week!

    The car above is nice known example.

    Think the one in my pic is blue.

    The cars were outside Tom Hartley Jnr's place. Which implies it is up for sale.

    LP400s are the only Countach I like.
    High profile tyres and no arches, wings and other bodywork rubbish.
