Ever since watching the TV series 'Automan' (which featured an LP400) around 1983/84 and also being the typical kid with the Lamborghini Countach (and Samantha Fox) posters on the bedroom wall this is my most admired sports car i grew up with. I lost count the number of static models i built of this car. I won this 58008 kit on Ebay a few months ago from an Ebay seller I highly regard from Florida, USA. Overall in great condition the shell with no cracks or deep scratches, the windows quite clear. Missing a side mirror which I should have a spare somewhere. The chrome wing gleams in the sunlight. I love the MSC on this car it looks a real beefcake. The motor is a Kyosho 'Le Mans' 600E. The box overall displays quite nicely with a couple of scuffs from storage over the years. The driver currently not displayed, needs attaching to the car body!

Wow! I bought this same kit in Japan in 1984 as an exchange student from the US. Was great fun for me as a kid. This is a brilliant find!!!!!!! Amazing to see this kit again so many years later!
