Crafted with a level of refinement that pushed the boundaries of what was possible without requiring rehomologation, the 25th Anniversary Edition was, in essence, a reimagining of the Countach. It returned cosmetically, ergonomically, and mechanically revitalised. To achieve this monumental transformation, Lamborghini entrusted the task to its in-house visionaries Horacio Pagani and Sandro Munari.
Pagani’s work was evident in the revised exterior, which featured a redesigned front bumper, sleek raking rear wing scoops, refined lighting, a new rear bumper, and enhanced ground effects. Inside, the cabin was replete with substantial improvements, with the addition of standard climate control, power windows and seats, better bolstering, and a revised steering assembly, making the driving experience more comfortable and functional. The Countach was transformed into a far more agile and road-friendly machine.
Cloaked in its correct shade of Nero over beige trim, this coveted European-specification 25th Anniversary Edition Countach is being offered for the first time in over two decades. Previously under the care of a custodian in France, the car was acquired by the consignor in June 2004 and returned to its native Italy. Now accompanied by an Automotoclub Storico Italiano Certificato di Relivanza Storica e Collezionistica, it has spent the last 20-plus years enjoying a charmed life of sparing use, displaying just 12,429 kilometers at the time of cataloguing.
