Countach
Lamborghini · on record 2022 to 2025
The Lamborghini Countach defined the wedge shaped supercar image with its mid engine V12 layout, scissor doors and extraordinary proportions. Produced through several evolving versions from the 1970s into the 1990s, it was never practical transport but became a cultural icon far beyond its sales volume. Values and collector demand now ensure that surviving cars are preserved, restored and documented with exceptional care.

Population history
Licensed and SORN vehicles at each census. The filters below apply to the family population, MOT and registration figures. They do not alter the generation history above.
Inside the surviving fleet
AutoCensus parses every DVLA variant description, so the fleet can be read by fuel and specification rather than as one number.
First registrations by year
When surviving examples first joined the British fleet.
New registrations
Vehicles first registered each year. A fleet still being sold shows here; a finished one shows only imports.
MOT reliability
DVSA test results for this family, 2005 to 2025.
| Failure reason | Failures | Share of all tests |
|---|---|---|
| The windscreen washers do not provide enough liquid to clear the windscreen in conjunction with the wiper(s) | 26 | 1.8% |
| Amalgamation of failures for all headlamp testers | 20 | 1.4% |
| The calculated parking brake efficiency is too low | 20 | 1.4% |
| The exhaust gas contains a carbon monoxide content exceeding the limit for a continuous period of 5 seconds | 19 | 1.3% |
| Excessive play in a ball joint | 14 | 1.0% |
| A mandatory rear fog lamp inoperative or less than 50% of the light sources illuminating | 14 | 1.0% |
| An obligatory headlamp inoperative, excessively damaged or deteriorated or has a product on the lens or light source so that the light output is well below that required to illuminate the road ahead | 12 | 0.8% |
| A rear registration plate lamp with any lamp not working | 12 | 0.8% |
Counted across every recorded test, 2005 to 2025. Advisories are excluded.
Where the Countach remains
Based on MOT test locations, 2025. Test location is a proxy: a vehicle is counted where it was last tested, not where it is kept.

How this record was calculated
Full methodology
Population history combines DVLA VEH0120 Q4 census observations through 2013 with the annual VEH0220 census from 2014 onward. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Historical VEH0120 is used only when its overlapping UK observations reconcile to the current canonical family definition. Vehicles are grouped into this family using the DVLA GenModel together with durable routing rules for known inconsistencies.
Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. Configuration is only assigned where the model description explicitly identifies it; a blank configuration is not treated as a two door Wrangler. Blank transmission fields are shown as manual because DVLA records the field for automatic vehicles.
MOT figures count tests, not vehicles, and geographic figures count each vehicle at its most recent test location. The decline projection is a straight line fitted to the latest five years and is illustrative only.
