1974 Lamborghini Countach LP400 for Sale in the United Kingdom

This 1974 Lamborghini Countach LP400 is a used car showing 47,773 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Giallo Fly with a Black interior.

Chassis 1120168 went new to South Africa, likely the first of only two LP400s sent there, and is believed to be one of 19 with right-hand drive. Its first colour was Llandudno Blue, named after a Western Cape beach and outside the Lamborghini range. The official importer showed it at events, bought it back in 1985 and had it repainted Rosso; a young golfer on tour then saw it in a Johannesburg showroom.

Exported to Britain in 1989, it was restored by Portman Lamborghini, finished in Giallo Fly in July 1991 and won a trophy at the Christie's Historic Weekend Concours. Jamiroquai keyboardist Toby Smith bought it in 1997, and in 2001 it passed to that same golfer, who learned years later that it was the showroom car; he has since driven it only a few thousand km. Dealers and a marque specialist have maintained it, last in September 2025, and Furlonger will service it fully before handover.

The car is located in Ashford, United Kingdom.

FAQ

This Lamborghini Countach LP400 in the European market

Is this Lamborghini priced above or below the European market?

At £999,990, about €1,166,577, it sits above the median of €304,900 for the 525 Lamborghini advertised in Europe in 2026. 98% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Lamborghini be bought in the United Kingdom and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Ashford, United Kingdom. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Lamborghini Countach LP400 cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €44,662 in the United States, excluding options. This car is advertised at £999,990, with no VAT basis stated by the seller, so no percentage comparison is given. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1975 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Lamborghini compare?

47,773 km recorded, against a median of 7,623 km across the Lamborghini advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Lamborghini are priced closest to this one?

a 1981 car in the United Kingdom at €1,169,981, and a 2008 car in Germany at €1,080,000. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

Who is selling this Lamborghini Countach LP400, and how does a purchase work?

Simon Furlonger, a professional dealer in Ashford, United Kingdom. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Lamborghini Countach LP400 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Ashford, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.
