- 36 years after working on his first client’s Lamborghini, something truly wonderful happened for Iain. Ferruccio Lamborghini’s one personal Countach was sent specially, long- distance, to his workshop. Iain has been given permission to exclusively share this unique car. Apart from some brief footage on a CBS News report in 1987, this is a world-first. All of the filming was done pre-Covid restrictions. A huge thanks to Olivier Nameche and the new owner for facilitating this video. Thanks to Liam too- you know who you are!
Thank you once again to everyone for the overwhelming reception of these videos and for all the support of likes, subscribes and wonderful comments.
Iain's recording of Frank Sinatra's iconic track, "Come Fly With Me", is available to stream or purchase on various sites now including iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and Deezer. A huge thanks to legendary guitarist/composer/music producer Steve Wright for collaborating with Iain on this.

What an episode - could this be the best one yet? We are delighted to be sponsoring Tyrrell's Classic Workshop - a really rather special channel, I think many would agree.
Very good move. This is the best car focused channel.
Thank you for sponsoring Iain to do these videos - they are a step above EVERYTHING on CZcams! We only dream of making content this good!
Fantastic
Aston Lark Limited totally agree
He represents a living history, an archive collected with passion, curiosity, and an extraordinary level of dedication to quality.
We are so proud to be sponsoring the greatest automotive channel in all of CZcams. Thank you Iain for sharing this with all us petrolheads!
Great business move. Kudos to both.
You should be, and thank you for helping bringing this unique and utterly magnificent car content to us. Thank you!
I think I speak on the behalf of everyone: We love you for sponsoring this channel. Ian is an encyclopedia and also holds our childish joy of special cars. And h sings like a Rat Pack!
Wonderful.
This channel is just...I'm speachless. Iain's delivery just sucks me in. I feel I'm there. Wonderful
Kudos to the owner for allowing everyone to see this car. Lovely bit of history.
Genuinely amazing.
The selfish part of me doesn't want this channel to blow up into 4M subscribers because it feels like Im part of some unbelievable, secret car club.
Iain is a genius, and a total gent.
Yeah, that's weird isn't it.
Agree! The ''hey wassup guys'' videos wear thin quickly. These exquisite vehicles, deserve quality presentation.
Thank you new owner for letting this be shared.
I couldn't ask for a more qualified person than Iain Tyrrell to bring this extraordinary car to light. Thank you.
And what a great singer to boot !
No you couldn't, because there isn't.
@@johnsmith1474 🤦♂️
Mindblowing....
Love the sheer joy, when Iain yells "YES, IT'S A COUNTACH !" =D
You've outdone yourself with this one Iain. The singing, the history of this car and those great shots for the finale...fantastic!
To wife: No dear- I'm not a 43 year old crying over how great that Lamborghini video was
Well, son, I am ! And I'm 25 damn years older than you. Can you imagine driving the utmost Countach in your life.
Iain, himself a legend, could'nt realise it himself. Wow ! We don't live in the same world.
I was ok until Iain started singing and the external shots. A dream car for this 20 year old back in the day. What’s with the 2nd white car!
Dido
So pleased that I’ve discovered this gentleman. Harry’s Garage was the introduction and I was immediately hooked on your vast knowledge and easy going demeanor.
All the best from the US!
All roads lead to Harry's Garage.
likewise, found via Harry. Love these videos, fascinating content, clear craft and skill but also a natural at presenting the content
Same here, Harv. An encyclopedia of knowledge, passion and know-how on this channel. Utterly brilliant.
I suspect I'm not the only 70s teenager who had a photo of one of these monsters on his bedroom wall... 😏
Yes .... just like you do with great rock stars ! The Countach was (and it always will be) a great “rock star” !
One of the greatest Exotics on the planet if not the greatest. The low roof Countach simply jaw dropping. This is the Holy Grail. Thx to the owner for doing the right thing and sharing this with us aficionados
.... and to take the car to the right man to "sort it".
Wow, testament to how well regarded Tyrrell's Classic workshop is in the classic world, think about it, this special car could have gone to any workshop in the world but it went to the best which must be Iain's. A great video indeed and a half decent set of lungs to boot!
it could have easily gone back to the factory too.
The ultimate Lamborghini. Owned by the Master himself. Thank you Mr. Tyrrell.
Shmee, JWW, TGE, RMR, STG,Straight Pipes, Motoman, Car Guys etc etc; you just took a hell of a beating!!!!!...... Arise Sir Iain, you are truly the Godfather of CZcams motoring.
Quality
They drive new cars.
" I think Mr Lamborghini would be happy with it" Tyrell You Legend !!!!
The fact that Iain Tyrrell has been the one entrusted to work on this car (and not anyone else in Italy, presumably including Lamborghini factory) is an astonishing compliment. I've never known 27:02 minutes pass so quickly 😑
The Lamborghini factory now probably has very few people who would know how to work on a Countach, the current crew there probably consists of a combo of VW/Audi engineers/bean counters, and younger Italian design/production teams.
Thats because the buyer is based here. Italy has genius artisans
This man has such an amazing job. I wanted to restore classic cars.
Now I’m a hgv fitter working on 10 year old Dennis bin lorry’s. It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it.
Is it a rubbish job???
@@adrianrowden8266 Boom Boom
@@adrianrowden8266 lol. For most people probably. I enjoy my work. That might make me sad? I have a classic car to play with anyway
Who knew you could sing too. A man of many talents.
23:08 That engine lid is not shut fully is killing my OCD!
It's a lambo, that's supposed to behave like it will fly off at any second 😜
Thanks to Harry Metcalfe and his Espada I have discovered this incredible channel. Thank you very much Ian for sharing all these contents.
I believe it was largely thanks to Harry Metcal and his Espada that Iain started doing this channel.
Me too......i never knew this business existed and I live 3 mile away.
Everytime Harry reads something like that, he get a hammer and and hit his big toe from the right foot:))
Me too... cheers from 🇨🇭
You know you're doing it right when making a door close properly is fascinating. Such a gem of a channel!
100% that gave me a wry smile, I've fitted and shimmed many door locks and striker plates, but doing it for a Countach seems almost romantic!
It ticked all my OCD boxes.
That smile when he pushes the throttle hard - pure, genuine joy that betrays his lifelong passion.
My god, this guy has a fine singing voice as well as totally down to earth motoring legendary knowledge. Thumbs up again.
What makes this extraordinary as well is Iain's amazing voice in that song. For you who didn't know, it's him singing.
I replayed to check and yes, it says so on screen. Wow!
That was really impressive. You can put more of that in your videos Iain...
Sounds just like Frank. Thought he was joking!
He has another video in his play list about Lamborghini and Ian singing.
and at 22:44 you can see Iain still loves what these cars are all about.....driving ! :-)
British at its best. And the singing at the end. How can you not like this? 😀
"Yes, it's a Lamborghini Countach!" Absolutely, the best! I rode in a Countach once and I know exactly what he experienced. It was emotional.
You did Mr Lamborghini proud with this one, and Mr Sinatra would certainly be impressed as well!
Matt Monroe too...
Damn the cars. Forget the scenery. Get me an audio from this, it's all I need. Well sung, Mr Tyrrell!
I had a poster of a white Countach on my bedroom wall when I was a kid. To me, it's the ultimate supercar.
Absolutely mind blowing and a privilege to watch THIS car on the road including the master's himself work on this unique car. Thanks for this Iain, we are also very fortunate on the other side of the screen.
It's amazing to watch you doing what you do. This channel is a gem.
Can't believe what I've just watched...astonishing!
such a good video!

Ferruccio Lamborghini's personal Countach. Let's settle in and hear the story and history. Bravo Tyrrell, I'm enthralled!
Thank you!
This car still looks amazing in 2022!
Wow. One of the best things I have seen on CZcams this year. The ending sequence with the music and cars... che bella!
Wow - the production values of this episode are worthy of the BBC Top Gear team...thank you Mr Tyrell!
Dueling Countachs. What a beautiful sight. Thanks Iain and thank you mystery owner for sharing the story of the car.
When I was 8-9 we used to have posters of this car..now looks kinds retro, still would love one
I preferred the skeleton poster
it looks retro but nonetheless it looks insane
I had several Lamborghini Countach posters growing up in the 80s, had a red RC Countach, put together a small plastic model of a Countach, and of course my favorite movie for the time was Cannonball Run because of the Countach. Needless to say I was a Countach fan boy.
@@dustintravis8791 The Cannonball Run was a great movie.
same here.
Ah, what a Gentleman Ian is, such a pleasure, listening to him. And he is a gifted musician as well! Hats off to you Sir, Kudos from Germany
"So, do you know how to look after a Countach?" "Well, we do have a red one and a black one in the workshop at the moment...."
Last month there were 5 white Countach in the workshop.
Actually that black one looked sort of dark blue, with gold wheels. I wonder if it used to belong to Walter Wolf?
@@zounds13 good thought!
The pair of Lambo's racing at the end of the video, with the music, damn, had to watch more than once.
This car belongs in the hall of fame. I love the way you celebrate it.
Absolutely epic, love the calm relaxed approach to driving such a unique and valuable car. That last filmed piece brought tears to my eyes. Throughly enjoyed every second, thanks Iain.
Going to repeat what has been said before me. Great to watch your channel and i feel privileged that you share your knowledge with us Iain. Also a big thank you to Harry for introducing you to us.
Has to be one of the best automotive videos I’ve seen, big fan of what you’re doing. Please never change and never stop.
The best thing you ever did in your career was to create a CZcams channel Ian. It means we get to sample a day in the life of Mr Tyrrell in all its glory. Thank you Sir.
I can't wipe that grin from my face. It's pouring cats and dogs here, but this vid lit up my room. What a priviliege just watching this.
Do I hear a little nervous pitch in that cool voice of yours while driving this jewel? Understandable indeed. Great content, Thanks.
The moment you floored it, I got goosebumps. The car sounded like it needed to be released, wanting desperately to be free for ages, it needed that. What an engine. Cheers Iain, what an honour.
Well said Man!
Blown my mind. I love that Iain does the work live. I thought he was a presenter only. Mega!
Get that smile off your face, Mr Tyrrell !
Absolutely wonderful !
Stay safe and well.
Stu
Perfect antidote to lockdown blues!
When a video gives you goosebumps, you know they nailed it.
When I was in Grade 1 many years ago (1989) I drew a Lamborghini Countach it helped me to find a joy for drawing automotive art
Thank you. Somebody who understands Lamborghini.
Wow! What an absolute epic ending! :)
If I ever get rich a Countach would be my first purchase over any other car.
I like diablo
You wont be rich for long.
Yes
@@RIPPERTON let them find out... It's a money pit... A very deep one...
@@RIPPERTON When you reached wealth, learn this: you have got a constant cashflow that could maintain that Countach alive ..
Iain Tyrrell, the Lamborghini whisperer!
That last minute of the video... [thumbs-up]
Feels like a genuine privilege being here at 133 views. Thank you Iain!
Outstanding content...
What a privilege to work on "The Countach"
Excellent film Mr Tyrrell of my teenage dream car...
I’m so pleased I discovered this Chanel via Harry’s. So much knowledge and the enthusiasm quite infectious. Thank you Ian
What a wonderful noise that V12 makes!
Wow thanks Iain. Made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. Fabulous!
*Wow, a proper Lambo and a fabulous history*
22:40....no narcotic, no moment, no emotion will remotely come close to this feeling.
Since I was a child, this has been the icon of cars. Had a poster of one of these on my wall. Never stopped dreaming of this masterpiece!
22:47 oh my word that sound. Mr Tyrell you loved doing that for all of us!! Thanks so much.
I cannot thank you enough for sharing this with us, Iain! Nothing could parallel your CZcams channel and the pieces of machinery you share with us.
The sound of that Lamborghini V12 revved in 'Anger'...pure automotive bliss !!
well ,mr Tyrrell has really done the car and himself proud. And what a wonderful voice. Truely a man of many talents . I remember watching a video of Ferrucio ripping around the Lamborghini factory in that car
Oh dear. Everything on You Tube from now on is downhill.
Another great of Mr. Tyrrell’s presentations is his conversation with Marcello Gandini.
Wonderful original Lamborghini Countach S by Ferrucio Lamborghini, Mr. Tyrrel's explanations are priceless. It always struck me that all Lamborghini Countach used the same door locks as all Mercedes Benz models from the 60s, 70s and 80s, such as: the W110, W111, W112, W113, W108, W109, W113, W107, W114, W115, W116, W123, W126, etc.
Wow, what a privilege to drive and work on Lamborghinis personal car. Thanks for posting.
Wow, fantastic, leaving me almost breathtaking speechless. Assigning this car to Iain simply does again confirm his established position in the world of Lamborghini. What a pure delight that this gentleman has commenced sharing his experiences here, as if being immersed profoundly. Wonderful, just wonderful 👌
Absolutely magnificent video Iain. You are one lucky man. Huge privilege to have been entrusted with that car. And a testament to your ability and reputation. Thank you for making that video and sharing it. Michael
A mans dream - working on those legends in such a clean and practical place!
Every episode is a gift.
OMG what a video ! Thanks Mr Tyrrell for all the awesome content in your channel And thanks Harry’s Garage for introducing to us car guys
Mr Tyrrell it's your fault that supper will be late in my house tonight!
The MOST Exotic Model of those already SUPER EXOTIC Hyper-cars . " The Bosses Truck " as it were . And , a Simple Fix . Bellissimo .
Mr Tyrrell you have made my day with my favorite sports car
When you said "What's that!" and looked in the rear view mirror, I thought the engine had blown! So glad it hadn't. Great video, keep them coming.
I was thinking "police"😶
I was expecting Harry in the red one...
Last time I saw a ' super car' driver have a look on his face like that was Dan ,after his Ferrari caught fire after having the headers ceramic coated.😲
I was worried the rear spoiler had come adrift!
@@64Alvis The engine bay cover looked insecure on the camera side. A Countach was always said to have all the aerodynamics of a brick.
Paulo Martini (F1 driver in the 1980s/90s) got his, without a wing, up to 196mph. No doubt a modified car.
This is will be a CZcams milestone. One of the great and unforgettable videos of the future.
Thank you for sharing this experience with the world.
Only one little thing... It is such a short pleasure. The combination of this unique car (and the meeting with the white anniversario) on this road and the duet of you and the chorus of twelve was wunderfull!
Stay healthy! Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹!
Tyrrell is f1 legends that go underrated
Your obvious joy made me smile. Thanks (oh and thanks Harry for the intro to this wonderful channel)
Well I have now failed NNN over this, to be more serious this upload is amazing. I feel almost privileged for seeing it, thank you for sharing this car with us.
I've had a Countach on a wall in my home ever since the early 80's. They will always hold a special place in my heart. I got to sit in one in the early 80's at a dealership in southern Florida and it really left an impression.
Same here. I got to sit a black one in Melbourne about 14 years ago (at a Car show) Funny thing is, it was a Ferrari event for a children's charity. I was all decked out in my Ferrari gear, but when I saw that black Countach (with a brownish-red interior) , I said to "hell with these Ferraris!". I hung around the car for about 30 mins and was drooling so much that the owner came up to me and said "do you wanna sit inside?" "I said "yeah! ever since I was 10!" Great Success ;-) My wife video taped it (on camcorder- no smartphones back then!) I still have the tape, i'll need to convert to digital format.
@@KnightIndustries572 That's awesome! It's so cool the owner did that for you! It's so cool how memories like those get burnt into our minds. Like, I can't even begin to understand people that don't like cars. It doesn't register.
This classic supercar review deserves 12,000,000 plus views!
If there ever was a driving god to look up to, this must be it. Now even singing as he drives along. Epic! 😂😂😂🏆🏆
We are so damn fortunate to be able to view this and listen the master speak of this legendary automobile AND show us how it was brought back to peak form by his shop. Wow! What a privilege. Thank you so much - superb viewing and a very special motor. Gosh...
What can anyone say? I've enjoyed this video a lot more than any episode of Top Gear or GT ever. Huge congrats to Iain and the team
great work Tyrell....Mr Lambo is one of my heroes....and i saw The CBS show and saw him driving it. Glad a good man got it and to keep it on the road. Danny Stringer Jr from Los Angeles.
SPEECHLESS!!!! What a surprise ending!!! The song, the cars, the road !!! Unbeatable...Almost like the Italian Job intro!!!
Wow! Iain has raised the bar still further! The crooning at the end was the icing on the cake, Harry has been pipped at his own game and at this very moment will be learning the full lyrics to 'on days like these'. All on my birthday too, great work Iain!
Unless you happen to be a local radio Disk Jockey..

ALAN PARTRIDGE.,, WHO KNOWS CARS AND STUFF
What a car! Thanks for sharing it, and thanks to the owner for letting you.
In my next life I would love to come back as a car mechanic and start working for this genius - Iain has such a great and humble way to talk to his colleagues - not to mention his incredible technical and historical knowledge
Now the first 25mins were good but hold on just a minute. The last two minutes are the best ever. Obviously the new owner has another Lambo. Seeing these two being driven properly is something that could quite possibly never ever be seen or heard again.
