Ride height on a 86 QV Countach
Dear All,
Can anyone out there help me? Does anyone know what the ride height should be (front and rear) on a Euro spec, 1986 QV Countach. Also, where on the chassis do you measure it from? Many thanks in advance Ian

I took a look in the "Lamborghini Countach: The Complete Story" by Peter Dron.
He shows a QV Countach on page 124 with some dimensions. Not sure if it helps or not, but the ground clearance is shown as 4.9" (125mm) and the height of the rear of the car from the ground to the top of the rear trunklid is 31.5" (800mm).

OK, I'll check also below the doors, I think it's about 14cm.

Ground clearance is 11,8cm, measured at both ends of the sill inside the wheel housing, my car is 100% even on the road.
