London’s rush hour commuters got a bit of a surprise this morning as an expensive Lamborghini Countach was left unoccupied in a lane on Tower Bridge.

No one seems to know why the Lambo was left to sit in the lane on Tower Bridge earlier this morning and attempts to locate the car’s owner have failed so far today.

Maybe the Countach, which was one of the most popular supercars of the 70s & 80s, had enough and simply clapped out on it’s owner?

Maybe the owner was in a rush for an important meeting and decided to just leave the car on the bridge where it would towed away and safely kept in lock-up until he paid the £300 (or whatever it is) fine – pocket change to anyone that could afford a Countach…

Or maybe it’s all a big stunt to help promote a new movie, book or something else? Only time will tell…
