Lamborghini Countach takes it to the wire

Are you a petrolhead with a passion for collecting art? If that sounds like you, maybe this wireframe Lamborghini might be something you'd like to add to your collection.



British artist Benedict Radcliffe constructed his vibrant orange reinterpretation of the Koenig Lamborghini Countach using 160ft (48.8 metres) of steel tubing, and rather than putting it on display in some swanky London art gallery, he parked it in the middle of a high street. Frankly, we're surprised someone didn't nick it – it looks that good!



Various publications have reported that the wireframe Lamborghini is currently on sale for £40,000 – though Benedict tells us he actually sold it to the Lamborghini gallery in Berlin, Germany during the summer. So you're now looking at parting with a fair wedge of cash if you want to convince its new owner to part with it – but we think it would definitely be worth it.



As we're rather impressed by Benedict's artwork, we thought we'd put together our own gallery of the wireframe Koenig Lamborghini Countach. Please leave a donation at the end (we're just messing).
