2010 Lamborghini Supercar Cnossus Concept - Lamborghini Sports Car

This here is the Lamborghini Cnossus. The Lamborghini Cnossus Concept was designed by Russian student Victor Filipchenko with the help of his Portuguese colleague Nelson Simoes as part of their final thesis project at Italy’s Scuola Politecnica di Design.
2010 Lamborghini Supercar Cnossus Concept
Every Lambo needs a bull theme, and this supercar design study for a supercar concept named after the ancient Greek city of Cnossus (Knossus) on the island of Crete. The designers claim to have been inspired by the Lamborghini Countach, though it is evident that the edgy styling of the limited production Reventon special also played a role in the design of the Cnossus Concept.
 
Presenting a bold vision of what the firm’s future flagship could look like, the concept takes inspiration from Lamborghini models past and present, including the Countach and Reventón.
 
It boasts many classic cues such as telephone-dial wheels lifted from the Countach, scissor doors and gaping air intakes in front of the rear wheelarch. At the rear, the thin strip of LED lights with inverted arrows at the end is a clear nod towards the Reventón’s jet-fighter theme, while the diffuser looks more like something you’d find on a Le Mans prototype racer than a road car.

Q12

Well - the end of a long run for me last night. Ever since DoD records were kept from 2004 onwards, over 7 seasons and a total of 116 appearances, I've never been DoD. I'd got to the stage where I believed it would never happen to me - but it has now.

Ian Dring is still a virgin but he was away for a few years, so has only played 59 games in that time, so he's got some way to go before he beats my record. The only other non-DoD'ers are Dan, Harry and Ken P, but they've hardly been around and their aggregate appearances combined don't even reach Ian's total, let alone mine.

Anyway, as Rob said, I was pretty grumpy last night - you would have been too if you'd played like I did - I never quite got my brain round starting off at the Doo'cot - but there might have been a little bit of pot and kettle, judging by this shot of my playing partner:



Anyone who hasn't played Banchory for a while - like Les last night - would be pleasantly surprised at the general condition of the course. Of course, it was the start of the Club Championship and the course is usually good at this time of year, but there's little doubt it's better than it has been for a few years - let's hope it stays that way. There is some serious rough now and if you do stray, you can be in deep trouble, as Hugh and Keith discovered last night:



Rob had my camera to take the photo of my hero-to-zero presentation of this week's ball to Keith, and for some bizarre reason took this shot of his own crotch:



Here's the winner receiving the spoils - first time since 22nd July last year:



The only other stats of interest were the fact that Ians Dring and Sharp both lost their 100% attendance records last night so only Dick and John M remain. We did have even sides in the over 60's v under 60's last night - and the youngsters won again by 9 aggregate points.

Here's the top 10 leader board, with scores to drop next week in brackets:

1 Taylor, Dick 351 (30)
2 Sharp, Ian 345 (24)
3 Meaden, John 340 (31)
4 Dring, Ian 337 (30)
5 Pollard, Rob 314 (19)
6 Stewart, Ian 305
7 Simpson, Jack 292
8 Cook, Archie 238
9 Gray, Keith 209
10 Corbett, Daniel 206

Dick and Ian are really neck and neck once the dropping scores are taken in to account. Just 11 weeks to go now.

Cadillac Cars Postwar

Postwar Cadillacs, incorporating the ideas of General Motors styling chief Harley J. Earl, innovated many of the styling features that came to be synonymous with the classic (late-1940s and 1950s) American automobile, including tailfins and wraparound windshields. Fledgling automotive magazine Motor Trend awarded its first "Car of the Year" to Cadillac in 1949; the company turned it down. On 25 November 1949, Cadillac produced its one millionth car, a 1950 Coupe de Ville. It also set a record for annual production of over 100,000 cars, a record it repeated in 1950 and 1951. Cadillac's first tailfins, inspired by the twin rudders of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning, appeared in 1948; the 1959 Cadillac was the epitome of the tailfin craze, with the most recognizable tailfins of any production automobile.

Cadillac's other distinctive styling attribute was its front-bumper designs which became known as Dagmar bumpers or simply Dagmars. What had started out after the war as an artillery shell shaped bumper guard became an increasingly important part of Cadillac's complicated front grille and bumper assembly. As the 1950s wore on, the element was placed higher in the front-end design, negating their purpose as bumper guards. They also became more pronounced and were likened to the bosom of 1950s television personality Dagmar. In 1957 the bumpers gained black rubber tips which only heightened the relationship between the styling element and a stylized, exaggerated bumper design. For 1958 the element was toned down and then was completely absent from the 1959 models.

In 1966, Cadillac would mark up its best annual sales yet, over 192,000 units (142,190 of them de Villes), an increase of more than 60%. This was exceeded in 1968, when Cadillac topped 200,000 units for the first time.

The launch of the front-wheel drive Eldorado in 1967 as a personal luxury coupe, with its simple, elegant design — a far cry from the tail-fin and chrome excesses of the 1950s — gave Cadillac a direct competitor for the Lincoln and Imperial, and in 1970, Cadillac sales topped Chrysler's for the first time. The new 472 cu in (7.7 l) engine that debuted in the 1968 model year, designed for an ultimate capacity potential of 600 cu in (9.8 l), was increased to 500 cu in (8.2 l) for the 1970 Eldorado. It was adopted across the model range beginning in 1975.

Lotus Cars Electric vehicles

Lotus Engineering has established a group dedicated to hybrid and electric vehicles.

Lotus plans to enter the electric vehicle race, CEO Michael Kimberley told the Financial Times . "Don’t be surprised to see an electric Lotus shortly,” he said, adding that a concept version could debut as early as March 2009, at Geneva Motor Show. Lotus is now front and center in the electric-car arena.

Lotus did not reveal details about the car or the engine but discloses that it will go for 300 to 400 miles (640 km) and it will really live up to the expectations of being one of the best electric cars in the world.

Lotus joined Jaguar Cars and Caparo on a luxury hybrid executive sedan project called "Limo-Green"--funded by the UK Government Technology Strategy Board. The vehicle will be a series plug-in hybrid.

Tesla Motors, a likely rival for Lotus if its plans go through, has also turned to contractors for parts of the all-electric Roadster.Of note however, is the fact that Tesla currently obtains the chassis for their Roadster from Lotus as do Dodge for their EV because of the heavy weight of the batteries in an EV and Lotus's widely known low weight and sharp handling characteristics. While only 10% of the parts of the Tesla Roadster are shared with the Lotus Elise, Lotus is responsible for approximately 40% of the overall content of the car.
