Thanks man, that was the kind of down to earth, no nonsense reply I was hoping for. I'm missing something. I've come across 'mint condition' '88 Countachs, going for about 85 k euro's, with 19.000 km's on them. 19000 km's on an 18 year old car ? That's 54 miles a month. I want a Lambo I can drive (like, a hundred miles per week-end or so) not just to look at, hence my question. And of course, I wouldn't buy a car without knowing it's full history, I'm not a complete moron.
