Grandson discovers long-lost Lamborghini in nan’s garage

It might sound like a work of fiction, but according to Reddit user Eriegin this is exactly what happened when he volunteered to help clear out his grandmother’s storage space. Under boxes and other flotsam was a 1981 Lamborghini Countach 5000 S.

The story goes that this young man’s late grandfather once ran an exotic car business in the 1980s, but high insurance costs forced him to close it down. He kept a few of the cars tucked away – vehicles that were forgotten about after he died. As if this story wasn’t interesting enough, alongside the Lamborghini was a Ferrari 308 and an MG T-series.

The cars appear to have survived their decades-long slumber reasonably well, with the garage sheltering them from the elements. Sadly, supercars of this nature need to be run semi-regularly in order to keep the mechanicals in prime condition, so these examples are going to need some serious TLC before they are put back on the road.
