Was it the actual car or a 1/2 size model?  I remember probably 7-10 years ago a small version was sitting in a food court that was up for raffle.

If we get some info on it we can make a thread/info page about it.

I was told the 2 DK countach's are sitting under their HQ at Southport, one a real countach and the other the replica that they used to race. Don't know about the raffle though.

This one looks like a knock off. The front wheels look like copies and the door should be more vertical I think.

talk about a handful for a targa

Not sure what is dumber.  Painting a Countach pink or flogging it in a tarmac rally.
