LAMBORGHINI COUNTACH L150

Once the Countach 5000 S was ready for production, the Mimram’s commissioned a further uprated 5.2-litre engine with four valve cylinder heads. The resultant Countach Quattrovalvole was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1985.

During the Quattrovalvole’s final stages of development, chief engineer, Giulio Alfieri, was asked to create a prototype evolution variant of the Countach platform – something that could be assessed as a potential offering prior to the arrival of an all-new replacement model later in the decade.
