Lamborghini

Born in 1916, Ferruccio Lamborghini was a self made millionaire, he made a fortune by building tractors from army surplus left by the Allied Forces back in 1945. He started this business from a small garage but soon was able to move to larger buildings because demand for his very powerfull tractors rose. He also started manufactoring oil burners and airconditioning systems after his tractor plant started making lots of money, it turned out his second business also made big money so Ferruccio Lamborghini became one the wealthiest men in Italy. He could afford just about everything he wanted, including high speed GT cars like the Mercedes SL300 and Ferrari he owned alongside the Jaguar he liked very much. But his Ferrari started giving problems with the clutch, the localworkshop couldn't fix this problem so Ferruccio decided to drive to Modena and confront Enzo Ferrari himself. But Enzo, who was known for his arrogance, told this 'farmer' to take a walk, Ferruccio was furiousand at that moment decided to show Enzo how he should build GT cars. Of course this is a legend, and thethruth about it could be a little different, it was obvious that Ferruccio had lots of money to spare and the GT car market was still open for new things, money could still be made by building high speed, well finished cars, so it is more likely this persuaded Lamborghini to start his own company. The founding of Automobili Lamborghini SpA Automobili Lamborghini SpA was founded in early 1963, Ferruccio bought a green-field site of 90,000 square metres near Bologna, in Sant'Agata Bologna and work on his brand new factory started immediately. The building were erected in only eight months. Since that day, lamborghini has produced the superclass cars. Thanks to Lamborghini for the supercars it produced throughout its 40 years history - Miura, Countach, Diablo and Murcielago. Lamborghini has proven itself as one of the biggest manufacturer of the supercars. Financial instability used to limit the success of Lamborghini. Even 1978, Lamborghini was declared bankrupt. However, since acquired by Audi in 1998, it has been growing stronger and stronger. New generation of Lamborghinis no longer suffer Financial problems like their predecessors. The cars are also made easier to live with. The addition of the smaller Gallardo allowed Lamborghini to target at a volume in excess of 2000 units, which brought financial stability to Sant'Agata for the first time. In 2011, lamborghini unveiled its new flagship model , the Aventador. Its really eyecatching for the carlovers. According to me, its the best car ever.
