I think we have the real owner of the neon yellow Mercedes-Benz G-wagon Sport Utility Vehicle that Dubai based Hushpuppi and Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile were pictured posing with.

The Dubai based owner who goes by the name Mr Woodberry on instagram has his social media page filled with luxury cars like the Rolls-Royce Dawn Black Badge, Lamborghini Urus Super Sports SUV and a Brabus G-wagon.

Comedian Tracy Morgan crashed his pre-owned 2012 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Hypercar 30 minutes after picking it up from Manhattan Motorcars on Tuesday.

The 50-year-old actor was driving his Veyron on the streets of New York City when he got into a fender bender with a silver Honda CR-V at a traffic light.There were no reported injuries at the time of the accident.

The 30 Rock star was seen immediately after the crash banging on the window of the CR-V and shouting “B*tch, get out of the car.” Morgan can then be heard telling those nearby “It’s a $2 million car. Just bought it!”

The 61-year-old woman driving the CR-V,who believes Morgan is the one to blame for the collision, said:
“We are both turning right – people are still crossing. So what happened is we’re both turning right. But I know he hit me because I was already [turning]. I was there, he was the one who hit me!”
According to the NYPD, neither driver was charged and the incident is expected to be settled through their respective insurance companies.

The cat, well known as Number 10's official mouser, is 12-years-old and his antics have become well-known around Westminster.

He joined Number 10 under David Cameron's reign and has continued under Theresa May.

Dutch national carrier KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is funding a pioneering V-shaped, fuel-efficient airplane design known as the Flying-V that is intended to improve the sustainability of air travel.

The Flying-V plane, named after the iconic Gibson Flying-V electric guitar, is being developed by researchers at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, also known as TU Delft.

The 314 passenger plane's futuristic design incorporates the passenger cabin, fuel tanks and cargo hold into the wings.

https://e9r8e7v9.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IMG_20190605_100551_407-600x337.jpg

https://e9r8e7v9.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IMG_20190605_100511_142-600x337.jpg

The futuristic plane will use 20% less fuel than the Airbus A350-900 while carrying a similar number of passengers.

The design also mirrors the A350's 65-meter (213 feet) wingspan, enabling it to use existing airport infrastructure.

Pieter Elbers, CEO and president of KLM, said in a statement that :

"In recent years, KLM has developed as a pioneer in sustainability within the airline industry,"

"We are proud of our progressive cooperative relationship with TU Delft, which ties in well with KLM's strategy and serves as an important milestone for us on the road to scaling-up sustainable aviation."

https://e9r8e7v9.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IMG_20190605_112020_488-600x357.jpg

The researchers hope to fly a scale model this September while a mock-up of the new cabin design will be open to the public at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport in October, as part of KLM's 100th anniversary celebrations.

The completed plane is expected to enter KLM airline's fleet between 2040 and 2050.

This isn’t the teams first attempt to set a record at the Nürburgring .The team tried to set a record last year but the petrol-powered automotive rickshaw broke down along the way .

The team turned to the company that makes engine components for Koenigsegg for a tougher engine components, including forged pistons, before they could finally achieve their dreams.

TravelPhilippines Ships 69 Containers Of Dumped Rubbish Back To Canada by obafemee80(op): 9:28am On Jun 01, 2019

A cargo ship carrying 69 shipping containers (1500 tonnes ) of rubbish dumped in the  Philippines  by Canada more than five years ago has left the Southeast Asian country on Friday May 31st, as nations in the region increasingly reject serving as dumpsites for wealthier states.

The Philippine government,headed by Rodrigo Duterte,recalled its ambassador and consuls in Canada earlier this month over Ottawa's failure to comply with a May 15 deadline to take back the waste.

Canada had mislabeled the garbage, which includes plastic bags, bottles, diapers and newspapers, sending tons of household waste instead of recyclable plastics. Western nations,including the US have been sending their garbage to Asian countries for more than 25 years.

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IMG_20190601_085321_309-600x400.jpg

China served as the largest international dumping ground until it banned imported plastic waste last year. That pushed much of the foreign trash onto other developing nations like Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam.

Malaysia also said it refused to become an international dumping ground and would return 3,300 tons of waste to Western countries.

I Hope Africa Won't Be The Next International Dumping Ground . What Do You Think?

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IMG_20190510_175007_419-600x337.jpg

But according to the celebrity publication TMZ reports ,the 32 year old rapper didn’t pay a single dime for the massive plane.Yes he is the rightful owner, but he got it for free from canadian airline, Cargojet.

“The rapper got his custom OVO jet dubbed ‘Air Drake’ for FREE because the Canada-based airline that made it, Cargojet, believes it'll more than pay for itself in publicity as a high-profile traveling billboard"

“The 767 jet retails for up to $200 MILLION, and all Champagne Papi (Drake) has to do is use it to travel around the world and take photographs flaunting it. Fortunately for Drake, that's right up his alley"


In all fairness, Drake, whose net worth is estimated at $140 million, didn’t explicitly say that he’d bought the plane, which retails for up to $200 million without customisations.

In the short clip , Drake credited Ajay Virmani, the President & CEO of Cargojet Airways, for making the deal happen.

Drake also said:
“No rental, no timeshare, no co-owners" -implying the luxurious Boeing 767 Aircraft belongs to him.

Drake is already enjoying his Flying Mansion going by the pictures posted by his pal, Tony Bet  . He reportedly used the aircraft for a trip to the Bahamas to celebrate the Raptors' making it to the NBA Finals.

SportsRe: Chelsea's Pedro Sets New Mark With Unparalleled Trophy Haul After Europa League by obafemee80(op): 6:45am On May 30, 2019
The club’s other scorers on the night also set some impressive marks, with Olivier Giroud surpassing Just Fontaine as the highest French scorer in a single European season. Fontaine’s record had stood for 60 years. 

Chelsea's Europa League win was likely Eden Hazard's final game for the club with the Belgian suggesting the match may have been his last ahead of a reported move to Real Madrid.

And he went out in style, netting his 20th goal of the season, his highest total ever, and becoming the first player to score a brace in a European final for an English club since Mark Hughes for Manchester United in the 1991 Cup Winners' Cup final against Barcelona.

Chelsea's Pedro Sets New Mark With Unparalleled Trophy Haul After Europa League Triumph

The Spanish midfielder is no stranger to silverware with the Blues Europa League win taking his collection to a unique level.

Chelsea's Europa League final victory over Arsenal has seen Blues winger Pedro add yet another trophy to his now unmatched collection.

The 31-year-old has won the Champions League, Premier League, Europa League, World Cup and the European Championship - a collection no other player in world football can match.

Pedro's list of silverware doesn't end there either with the former Barcelona man also boasting five La Liga titles, three Copa del Reys, three UEFA Super Cups, two Club World Cups and an FA Cup.

The Chelsea attacker played a key part in Chelsea's 4-1 victory against the Gunners on Wednesday as he scored his side's second goal on the hour mark.

After finishing third in the Premier League this season, the Blues Europa League triumph is an ideal and now familiar way for Pedro to finish a season. 

"For us, lifting a title is the best, most satisfying feeling," Pedro told Chelsea's website prior to the final.

"It means that we have done our job well over the course of the season and ultimately, to have the opportunity to feel that emotion when you lift the trophy is something unique.

"You have to experience it to know what it feels like because you cannot put it into words. 

"You’re always eager to keep winning titles and to keep winning trophies because it is important for your career and it helps you grow as a player.

"You can get bored of many things, but never winning. You always want to win as many trophies and titles as possible."
Pedro also became just the fifth player to score in a final of both the European Cup or Champions League and the UEFA Cup or Europa League. Allan Simonsen, Hernan Crespo, Dmitri Alenichev and Steven Gerrard preceded the Spanish international.

Car TalkRE Investor And Supercar Collector Makes $1.9m From $2.2m Koenigsegg Agera RS by obafemee80(op): 5:52pm On May 29, 2019
https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133750_022-600x400.jpg

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133732_050-600x400.jpg

Meet 48 year old California real estate investor and Supercar Collector ,Manny Khoshbin,who made millions in profit selling his Agera RS Gryphon .

The Instagram influencer ,with almost 1 million followers, has a feed filled with pictures and videos of his insanely expensive rides that includes one-of-a-kind Pagani Huayra Hermès edition, a Bugatti Mansory Linea Vincero and a full-body exposed carbon matte finish McLaren P1.

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133758_267-600x400.jpg

He was in line to receive the Agera RS Gryphon that crashed in a test run when the driver lost control at a wet track in Trollhattan, Sweden, in 2017. Koenigsegg reached a mutual agreement with Khoshbin "to spec an all-new Agera RS that will blow everyone's mind."

Khoshbin added some over-the-top upgrades, including a 1,400 hp engine, a $300k tail wing and lots of 24 karat accents, including the gold-covered exhaust pipe.

He dubbed the new Agera RS Phoenix, rising out of the ashes of the Gryphon. Besides the pricey add-ons, it was the last Agera RS Koenigsegg ever made — making it highly desirable to collectors.

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133805_710-600x400.jpg

5 months after taking delivery of the Hypercar , his close friend connected him to a prospective buyer who also had a Koenigsegg in carbon and gold.

He said :
"I wasn't thinking about selling it. Honestly, I was buying to keep it permanently, but I got an offer I couldn't refuse"

"He had another Koenigsegg in carbon and gold and this was a perfect match to the other in his collection,"


Just like his new $2.2m Hypercar, the deal moved very fast -The deal took a week to negotiate.

He said
"I said $5 million, we negotiated and landed at $4.1 million."

In just over five months, Khoshbin pocketed $1.9 million in profit — which works out to roughly $365,595 a month, $11,875 a day or $495 an hour.

While the real estate investor says he's made millions of dollars buying and selling buildings, he said he has never made much money in so little time.

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133916_496-600x337.jpg

The Supercar collector used the money to buy a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse Rembrandt with just 770 miles on the odometer.

"I love cars, but at the end of the day you got to be strategic and smart with your money".

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_133902_895-600x337.jpg

When asked if there was a car in his collection that he won't sell ,after some thought he answered.

"Yes, my Pagani Hermès Edition.It's my Picasso"

His car obsession for super fast Beasts continues.He already placed an order for the World's fastest car - the 1,600 horsepower Koenigsegg Jesko that will cost him around $3 million.

Car TalkHonda's All-electric Car Swaps Conventional Side Mirrors For Cameras by obafemee80(op):

Japanese automaker Honda has confirmed that the Side Camera Mirror System on the Honda e prototype electric car will be a standard feature when the car enters production in 2020. 

As well as improving visibility, these compact cameras reduce aerodynamic drag by around 90% compared to conventional door mirrors. The result is an approximate 3.8% improvement for the entire vehicle - in terms of battery’s efficiency and range.

Unlike conventional side mirrors, the cameras are contained within the width of the car .The shape of the camera unit housing is designed to prevent water drops on the lens. A water-repellent coating on the lens surfaces deter any other residual water build up.

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_113518_620-600x355.jpg

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190529_113548_276-600x399.jpg

The side-camera-mirror system,that includes two six-inch screens, situated on the left and right sides of the dashboard,provide live images of traffic.

The driver can also choose between ‘normal view’ and ‘wide view’ via the vehicle settings, extending the field of vision further than with conventional side mirrors and reducing blind spots by around 10% in normal view and approximately 50% in wide view.

When selecting reverse gear, guidelines appear on the side view screens in addition to an enhanced camera angle, expanding visibility and delivering further benefits to the driver.

The Honda e compact electric car is part of the brand’s strategy to feature electrified technology in all cars it sells by 2025. It will feature a competitive range of over 125 miles and ‘fast charge’ functionality providing 80% range in just 30 minutes.

The production version of the Honda e will be unveiled later this year.

British luxury marque Rolls-Royce set a remarkable business record in 2018,achieving its greatest sales result in the brand’s 115-year history with 4,107 cars delivered to customers in over 50 countries worldwide.

The Greater China market played a significant role in the marque’s 2018 success story, becoming Rolls-Royce’s second-largest market. Rolls-Royce believes at some point in the not-too-distant future, China will become its largest single market.

“I am very pleased with our performance in Greater China. At Rolls-Royce our patrons are our life blood”

“They are our heroes and friends. We are wholeheartedly committed to meeting their diverse needs and desires.

Rolls-Royce is gaining ever increasing favour amongst young, ultra-high-net-worth Chinese customers who are attracted to the brand’s youthful model range, and exceptional personalisation options.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom,which sits comfortably at the top of the British brand’s range of models, "sells more in China than anywhere else in the world".

Leon Li, Director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Greater China, says:

“China is a key component of our global strategy, has become one of the fastest-growing markets for Rolls-Royce, and made a pivotal contribution to our record sales in 2018”

“Our Chinese patrons are younger than in our other markets, exceptionally successful, and have a global perspective. All of this contributes to their unique tastes, and appetite for highly bespoke Rolls-Royces”
The Rolls-Royce Phantom is also the favorite amongst Wealthy Nigerians. Daughter of Billionaire Businessman DJ Cuppy and Oil Baron Prince Arthur Eze also took delivery of the Extended Wheelbase and latest version of the Phantom.

TravelIndian Woman Plasters Her Toyota Corolla In Cow Dung To Cool It Down by obafemee80(op): 2:52pm On May 26, 2019

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190526_141956_155-600x425.jpg

An Indian woman in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, has come up with a brilliant idea to keep her car and herself cool while driving in scorching weather by plastering her Toyota Corolla with cow manure.

Temperatures throughout the state of Gujarat regularly rise to over 42 degrees Celsius (107 Fahrenheit) and keeping your engine cool is definitely a problem.

She explained that the heat was too unbearable for her to drive with windows down, and the application of the cow waste mixed with mud solved the problem.

She said:
“It not only keeps my car cool but also helps in preventing pollution. The harmful gases that are released while we use car AC increase the temperatures and contribute to global warming. I drive my car switching off the AC as the cow-dung keeps it cool"

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190526_142020_099-600x361.jpg

https://autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/IMG_20190526_142048_390-600x404.jpg

She went further to upgrade her design by painting various ornamental designs on the Corolla to make it look cool.

Pictures of the newly brown-coloured Corolla were taken in the city of Ahmedabad in western India and have spread on social media.   

Cow dung,a natural insulator, is widely used throughout rural India to keep houses and huts cool during the summer months and other hot spells. Hundreds of people die every year from the heat in India, with May and June usually the hottest months.

Hmmmm Toyota Cow-rolla...

Would You Have Your Car Plastered In Cow Poo Just To Cool It Down?
