1985 Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV Downdraft

Rosso with Champagne Cruscotto Testa di Moro, Beige carpeting, 5.2 liter V12 engine, 5-Speed manual gearbox, 10,000km (6,000 Miles) from new, correct Alpine 7148L cassette stereo head unit, Tubi stainless steel sport muffler.

While the Lamborghini Countach dominates our collective memory as the definitive supercar of the 1980s, its story began in 1971—characterized by its aggressive, low-slung stance and angular shape. 

This European-market 1985 Lamborghini Countach 5000 Quattrovalvole, is one of less than 380 QVs equipped with the coveted six double-barrel carburetor configuration between 1985 and 1988. Early QVs also benefit from the so-called “round belly” design, named for its absence of side skirts added on later cars, arguably making this particular variant of the “Downdraft” the ultimate Countach specification within the Lamborghini collector’s view.
