He tried to shoot at the other car through his own windscreen?!

PS: warning, the clip after the attempted shooting (above) could have been horrific if anyone was in the car that was involved.

£16k for a Countach.....
Yeah but that's equivalent to just shy of £200k in today's money and the average house price was just under £10k.

So the Countach was a better investment than a house. 8-)

Does seem rather extreme for a bit of road rage.

I think shooting through your own windscreen is ok though as I’ve seen plenty of US cop shows where they’re doing that :lol:

Bit of a wasted opportunity no? I have to admit I rather like it, mainly down to the lovely shape, but surely a livelier Z3 donor would have been better???

Or, dare I say it, a Z8 with the V8??

A weirdly proportioned, wrongly badged, slow kit car or a genuine Z3M appreciating classic for the same money. Who would ever want to spend their money on the former?!

These replica kits are all a waste of money.
I don’t get the 250 love either.

It's like they were shown a quick glance of a 250 then had to produce one from memory.

Preferably one inflicted with severe cataracts one imagines.
