This is an excellent series of videos (9 total). Harry certainly loves his Countach.

Ferruccio's winery & museum is impressive!
Also, lots of tractors. I really liked how Harry focused on the history of Lamborghini.

I love how Harry still uses a paper map. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

I built this diecast model many years ago but I freshened it up about a year ago. The wheels were originally chrome, but I just had to paint them gold.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching his trip down to Italy. Harry loves road tripping his Countach across Europe - and it seems to be every bit as reliable as a Toyota Camry.

Don't forget Harry's Countach had been 'gone over by Tyrrell's workshop less than a year ago. That attention alone would have likely matched the price of a Camry.
What impressed me as much as anything was Harry saying he would have to replace the tires, as they were worn down, not because they were too old. Having Pagani sign the composite engine lid which he had personally made was cool too. Best Les

Can you just imagine tooling along on the "highway" minding your own business and a Lamborghini Countach goes flying by you making all of that glorious V12 sound at 140mph???

That guy knows how to do road trips! Like driving his Testarossa to Morocco.
I scratched my head at the comment about not driving the. Countach *too* fast because it had “1987 brakes.” I mean, engineers knew how to design and build braking systems for high-performance cars in the 80s, too.

I'm really glad Harry actually uses his cars. So many classics are just sitting in storage.
