Price on Application.

Zagame Automotive is proud to present what is widely regarded as one of the finest Quattrovalvole examples in Australia. Delivered new in September 1987, this late-production model represents the definitive evolution of the iconic Countach - the unmistakable poster car of the 1980s.

Powered by the legendary 5.2-litre four-valve V12, breathing through six twin-choke Weber carburettors, it delivers the raw, mechanical purity that defines the analogue supercar era - an unfiltered driving experience that remains as intoxicating today as it was nearly four decades ago.

Specification Highlights

• Original UK-supplied, factory right-hand drive.
• Imported to Australia by the second owner.
• 27,753 genuine kilometres.
• Finished in Bianco with Rosso leather interior, piped in white.
• Factory wide dashboard extending to the doors with additional air-conditioning vents.
• No impact-style rear bumpers as fitted to later Australian-delivered examples.
• Original tools, operations book and two set of keys.

Provenance & Ownership

This car’s story is as compelling as its specification.

Delivered into the UK in 1987 for an owner who specified the Countach with the very rare Red Interior with White Piping. In 2002 it was acquired by an associate of the original owner who was a Lamborghini enthusiast with an extensive collection, including multiple Countach, Miura and Diablo models. The vehicle was personally imported to Australia and has had one subsequent owner until now.

Few cars of this era and quality can claim such continuous and personal provenance from the day they left the factory gates at Sant’Agata.

Condition & Originality

This Quattrovalvole remains remarkably original and factory-correct:

• Original leather upholstery & Interior “as it left the factory."
• Completely accident-free.
• Up to date mechanical specification – fully rebuilt by Lamborghini Melbourne.

The sole exception to its originality is a recent repaint of the rear wing, undertaken to address minor surface bubbling. Otherwise, the vehicle presents as it did when delivered in 1987

The Definitive Carburetted Countach

The Quattrovalvole is widely regarded as the ultimate development of the carburetted Countach - aggressive in presence, uncompromising in character, yet refined by incremental improvements such as the enhanced dashboard and ventilation system featured on this example.

In the opinion of many within the Australian Lamborghini community - this is among the best and most authentic QV’s in the country.

For the discerning collector seeking provenance, originality, and one of the most iconic supercars ever produced in its purest specification, this 1987 Countach Quattrovalvole represents a rare and compelling offering.
