    Harry - Lamborghini Countach engine - I think you meant 455 not 255bhp 😀

    • @harrysgarage
      @harrysgarage  2 роки тому +132

      Yup, I did mean 455bhp but I do these reviews on the hoof and the odd slip-up is inevitable. I could have edited it out but doing so would have delayed the video release by 1-2hrs. With time before the sale being so tight, I decided not to bother and take the flake instead!

      Harry is most certainly not ignoring the signs. It is simply that Mr. Metcalfe is so well respected in the automotive world that he is trusted without hesitation to present these cars to his viewers in a thoughtful and careful manner. The signs are meant for others. Not Harry.

In the early 80’s I delivered furniture and our flamboyant boss famously lived with Mum and Dad in an ex council house in Harold Hill, Romford (both H’s being silent 🙂)……… pavement parking a white Countach…..😳🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
    Latterly replaced with an electric blue? Countach QV, which I recall was the first export one off the line…….
    Exciting times…… 🙂🌟🇬🇧
    As another said, a follow up with prices achieved would be brilliant……. Cheers, Harry….
