Hot-rod! With an amazing reserve price, Sir Rod Stewart’s beloved Lamborghini Countach is up for auction.
The legendary singer owned the classic 1980s supercar for over 25 years.
With a hefty £400,000 price tag, Sir Rod Stewart’s treasured classic Lamborghini has entered the market.
The singer took care of the legendary Countach LP400 Periscopio for more than 20 years; it is a valued addition to his car collection.
With a top speed of 183 mph, the supercar was first purchased by Sir Rod during an Australian tour in 1977. It soon rose to prominence as a representation of 80s opulence.
The ‘Maggie May’ singer had the car sent to his Los Angeles house, where he customized it with new spoilers, a wide-body package, and a removable panel roof. As reported by Luxury Auto News, the two parted ways in 2002 after driving the rock icon back to Britain.
The Lamborghini was originally constructed with a right-hand drive, but a later owner switched it to a left-hand drive.
A powerful 3.9-liter V12 engine with six Weber carburetors and twin-distributor ignition sits beneath the bonnet, making this vintage vehicle a beast on the road in addition to being an attractive vehicle.
