Car Talk / 10 Facts About Lamborghini You Wish You Knew Earlier by carsnazi(f): 11:05am On Dec 26, 2019
Think you know Lamborghini so well? You are about to find out 10 Lamborghini facts that will blow your mind – courtesy of Naijacarnews. I will only list here what I found most interesting. You can check the rest in the original post.
Source: https://naijacarnews.com/auto-fun/10-facts-about-lamborghini-you-wish-you-knew-earlier-1029

Lamborghini began as a tractor company
The sports cars you see today bearing Lamborghini’s name were not in the picture when the company was established in 1948 by the founder Ferruccio Lamborghini. His intention was to manufacture and sell tractors. He ventured into sportscars several years down the line.
Unknown to many people, Lamborghini is still in the business of manufacturing tractors. But these tractors are not manufactured under Volkswagen Group which Lamborghini is now part of. You can find the tractors in some European countries as well as some countries in the Middle East.


It was established as a challenge to prove a point
The founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini, was content with producing only tractors initially. A lover of exotic cars, he had quite a number of Ferrari cars in his fleet. However, he noticed that these cars often developed gearbox and clutch problems.
Ferruccio had the opportunity of meeting the founder of Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari. He told him about the problems he was experiencing with his Ferrari cars. Not pleased with this, Enzo told Ferruccio that he was not qualified to advise him about sports cars since he was just a tractor manufacturer. Ferruccio felt insulted by this. To prove a point to Enzo, he started producing sportscars. Today, Lamborghini sportscars are known as some of the best in the segment and are rivals to Ferrari sportscars.


Its logo signifies its founder's birth sign
Lamborghini’s logo is a raging bull. The raging bull is a representation of Ferruccio’s astrology birth sign. Most of the company’s production vehicles are christened after fighting bulls, save for the LM002, Sesto Elemento and Countach.


It has a minimum of eight-cylinder powered engines
Producing all that power does not happen by chance. Lamborghini has strict operational guidelines that it sticks to in order to maintain its high engine power. You would never find a Lamborghini vehicle with less than an eight-cylinder engine. It accommodates as high as 12 cylinders in some of its vehicles.
The eight-cylinder minimum engine could change in the near future as emission standards in the automotive industry are tightening.

The most expensive Lamborghini auctioned for $8.3 million
The most expensive Lamborghini that has been auctioned in September 2019 in Switzerland is a 2014 Lamborghini Veneno Roadster. The car was sold at a whopping price of $8.3 million, equivalent to 3 billion naira.

According to reports, this car was seized from Obiang Mangue, the vice president of Equatorial Guinea, who was charged with money laundering and embezzling more than $100 million.

Car Talk / Sultan Of Brunei 5,000-car Collection & Shocking Facts by carsnazi(f): 5:33am On Nov 19, 2019
What is the exact Sultan of Brunei car number & value?
The Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah is very popular for his largest car collection. At the last count, he owned over 5,000 cars worth about $5 billion dollars (₦2.3 trillion) in total.

List of cars owned by King of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah
A golden Rolls-Royce Limousine
A limo is always present in the fleet of cars owned by world leaders, and a Monarch is no exception. The sultan owns a luxurious customized Rolls Royce Silver Spur befitting his lavish lifestyle. Priced at about $14 million (~₦5 billion), Bolkiah acquired the vehicle for his wedding. Decorated with 24k gold, it was indeed a symbol of his royalty on the big day.


1903 sports and luxury cars
The sport and luxurious cars owned by the sultan are so many, it’s hard to tell the exact number. However, reports estimate that there are over 962 LMs, 604 Rolls Royces, 300 Ferraris, 20 Koenigeggs, 11 McLaren F1s, and 6 Daver Porsches. The total number is 1903 units – still a far cry from the 5000.

Hundreds of vintage cars
Like most royals around the world, Bolkiah has a penchant for sleek European cars, but that doesn’t stop him from enjoying the luxury of fancy American cars. Actually, he has a large number of them in his garage and experts also estimate the total reaches hundreds.

Countless Formula 1 racing cars
The royal leader is also known to be a racing enthusiast. And this is evident in the many formula 1 cars parked in his garage. These aren’t ordinary cars. Most of them were bought directly from professional formula 1 racers who have won many championships.


Can you visit the Sultan of Brunei car collection?
​Sorry guys, you can't visit the car collection which is protected strictly from either the press or the residents. A VIP once revealed that he had to travel with a bodyguard through bomb-proof gates to see the Sultan's garage.

Car population
Can you guess the number of cars on earth? Well, I guess you got that wrong. There are over a billion cars on earth!

Where most cars are produced
Out of 4 cars in the world, one comes from China.

A waste of 5 months for nothing?
According to recent research, a person has spent approximately 5 months of his life waiting in a car at red lights.


Why it's called "car"
The word ‘car’ originates from the Latin carrum, meaning a ‘two-wheeled Celtic war chariot.’ The Latin is derived from the Proto-Indo-European root ‘kers’ meaning ‘to run.’

Car recycling
The world’s most recycled product is the automobile.

First death in traffic accident
In 1896, the first ever (recorded) traffic death on road happened. Of course that urged stakeholders to invest more to develop vehicle safety features as well as necessary traffic laws.

Where most cars are consumed
The country with the highest number of cars is the United States. The number of cars stands at 300 million. The second largest is China with a number at 78 million.

1. Jeffrey Preston Bezos
Net worth: $131 billion
As large as the earth is, it sure feels awesome to be the richest human in it, to be the CEO of a multi-billion dollar company, and to give about 4% of that cake to his ex-wife, while still remaining the center of attraction. The 55-year-old CEO owns a 16% stake of Amazon, he was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Jeff Bezos isn't just the founder and CEO of Amazon, he also owns Blue Origin and The Washington Post.

Jeff Bezos car collection
If you are the richest men in the world, owning less than 10 cars can be considered a "modest" trait. Below is the list of Jeff Bezos' cars which he hardly drives to the public. He has many things to do other than flaunting his automobiles, I guess.
Honda Accord (1996) - ₦1 million
1988 Chevrolet Blazer - ₦5.6 million
Lamborghini Veneno - ₦1.8 billion
W Motors Lykan Hypersport - ₦1.5 billion

Originally named William Henry Gates, the second richest man was born on October 28th, 1955. Bill Gates founded Microsoft Corporation, the software company, with Paul Allen in 1975, where he owns just over 1% stake. Along with his wife, Melinda Gates, whom he married in 1994, he chairs the world's largest private charitable foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Currently, he's the second richest man in the world but you'd be amazed to find out that Bill has been on Forbes list of the world's wealthiest people since 1987. To blow your mind further, Bill Gates held the position of number one on this list from 1995 - 2017, except four years!

Bill Gates car collection

Warren Edward Buffett is considered one of the most affluent investors in the world, running a conglomerate that owns more than 60 companies.

Since 1970, Warren Buffett has been the largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway and he's earned himself the title of "Oracle" or "Wizard", considering the large investments he's successfully tied with.

Warren Buffett cars & houses
Warren Buffett doesn't own luxury cars, he probably doesn't see it as a worthy investment. According to Forbes, he only drives about 3,500 miles a year, so the need for a car is so minimal. On the other hand, he currently owns a 2014 Cadillac XTS, worth about ₦19.8 million. In addition, he has a home in Omaha, Nebraska, worth ₦11.4 million and a Bombardier Challenger 600, named “The Indefensible”.


4. Bernard Arnault
Net worth: $76 billion
His full name is Bernard Jean Étienne Arnault, he's a 70-year-old French super-wealthy man who resides in Paris. Bernard Arnault is the Chairman and CEO of LVMH - Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy, a French conglomerate, with its headquarter in Paris. He's also a great investor, considering the fact that the luxury/cognac conglomerate manages about 60 subsidiaries. Currently, he is the richest person in the fashion industry, he took the seat from Zara's Amancio Ortega in April 2018.
Bernard Arnault cars & houses
BMW 7-series

A Yacht called Symphony, worth ₦54.5 billion
An Island in the Bahamas worth ₦12.7 billion
A private jet - Dassault Falcon 7X (OY-FWO) worth ₦14.5 billion


5. Carlos Slim Helu & family
Net Worth: $64 billion
As mentioned earlier, this list fluctuates a lot: as we know it, Carlos Slim was once ranked by Forbes as the world's richest man, this was a consistent reality from 2010 to 2013. It's very possible he retakes that seat. Currently, he's the richest man in Latin America and his family runs the biggest mobile telecom firm in Latin America, America Movil (parent company is called Grupo Carso, a Mexican conglomerate).

Carlos Slim cars and houses
Mercedes 4x4
Maybach Guard

6. Amancio Ortega
Net Worth: $62.7 billion
He's the world's wealthiest retailer, second richest man in Europe (after Bernard Arnault) and sixth richest man in the world. It would interest you to know that Amancio Ortega Gaona owns 7,500 stores around the world, and he's the co-founder and former chairman of Inditex Fashion Group, known with the popular Zara brand. He was born in Spain, on March 28th, 1936. The fashion group was co-founded with his ex-wife, Rosalia Mera. They got married in 1966, divorced in 1986, and she died on August 2013.
Amancio Ortega cars & houses
This man seems to show little interest in cars. To be more specific, the only car he rides to the public is an Audi A8 which cost around ₦30.2 million.
He owns two yachts, called Yacht Valoria and Yacht Drizzle (both worth over ₦5 billion) and a private jet, Gulfstream G650 (worth over ₦23.6 billion). Amancio Ortega also owns several houses in Spain.
