Lamborghini Boss Unveils Turbocharging Future

Posted on February 2, 2012 by Richard

Those looking for the ultimate drive will often look to the Lamborghini as a brand of vehicle far more stylish and exciting than many other sports car models.  Lamborghini hire is a fantastic way for individuals to experience the power of the car without having to pay an expensive price tag.  With Lamborghini boss, Stephan Winkelmann, expressing that there is no turbocharging in development for the next few years, the popular current models are set to see continued demand.

Asked about the future of turbocharging for Lamborghini, Mr Winkelmann said “For this decade, I don’t see it happening in the super sport car business – although I would also caution against saying it could never happen.  The future can take its own path when fuel regulations are involved.  All I will say is that any development along those lines must be consistent with the DNA of Lamborghini.”

Such a statement means that for those wanting to utilise Lamborghini hire, the popular vehicles of the modern day will continue to be the best available.  With a V10 5.2 litre engine, the Lamborghini LP560-4 Spyder is able to go from 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds.  Coming in white, the retractable roof offers drivers the ultimate thrill of travelling with the top down and enjoying the powerful ride.  Alternatively, the Lamborghini LP560 Coupe offers speeds of 0-60mph in four seconds and offers a stylish and chic vehicle.  For those who want to be blown away by the best car hire available, Lamborghini will offer a memory that will last a lifetime.

Range Rover Highlighted in new Bond Movie

Posted on February 1, 2012 by Richard

The Aston Martin has always been considered the car of choice for James Bond.  However, in pictures taken on the new set of Skyfall, it has been revealed that Bond is travelling in a Range Rover.  Therefore, whilst the lure of Aston Martin’s will continue, the use of a car by one of the world’s most notorious spies will certainly see Range Rover hire seem even more attractive for those wanting to rent luxury vehicles.

This week, images were revealed from the set of Skyfall, which is currently filming in London.  Rather than the usual Aston Martin, James Bond was seen being chauffeured in a luxury Range Rover, whilst a stunt man on the roof surrounded by metal apparatus, planned a thrilling getaway.  Though the film isn’t released until the 23rd November, 2012, the mention of a Range Rover in the film is certainly likely to increase the brand’s presence for many.

Some of the top brands in the world are largely in demand due to hirers wanting to get a taste of the celebrity lifestyle.  In this case, many James Bond fans are able to get behind the wheel of an Aston Martin and feel just how their favourite English spy would whilst whizzing through the streets of London.  With Skyfall introducing a new car to the mix, die hard Bond fans will have even more opportunity to experience some of their favourite spy’s sports cars.  As a result, Range Rover hire is likely to enjoy an increase in demand as the brand is highlighted like never before.
