The 50th Anniversary of Automobili Lamborghini in 2013 is anticipated to truly spotlight the achievements of this luxury marque since its inception in 1963, with an exclusive highlight.
The plans for the celebrations next year of Lamborghini’s fiftieth birthday go well beyond events and festivities. Many are anticipating the launch of an Aventador 50th Edition to crown the affair.
The ways in which the flamboyant festival of Lamborghini’s half-century could manifest are certainly going to be as colourful and exciting as their fabulous supercars. In August this year they launched their programme of events which can be explored online in a dedicated website which showcases the catalogue of enjoyment in which you can partake. This includes the Grande Giro Lamborghini, a 750-mile rally which will see cars start their engines on 7th May, to commemorate the day on which the company was incorporated and the cornerstone of the production factory was laid.
Since the announcement at Pebble Beach earlier this year, fans have been speculating about what they have not been saying, just as much as what they have revealed.
Further conjecture focuses on a special edition of Lamborghini’s flagship supercar. After all, on their 40th anniversary, a special edition Muciélago was produced, as was an anniversary edition of the Countach for the 25th anniversary in 1988. Likely to be based on the Aventador, it may be a one-off like last season’s Aventador J, or it could be a special series, as was the case for the Countach edition.
It is unlikely that either will be widely accessible, regardless of which form the celebratory car takes. Much more within reach is a self-drive hire from supercar hire in London. The Aventador is already a herald to what Lamborghini have achieved over the last fifty years. Their latest supercar is certainly the pinnacle of everything they have, beautifully, crafted to date. The 6.5 litre V12 engine has acceleration capabilities seen never before in a car from Sant’Agata Bolognese. 0-62 mph in just 2.9 seconds thanks to 690 Nm of torque will certainly give you something to celebrate on your short-term hire. Independent Shift Rods, Drive Select Mode, pushrod spring and damper suspension, and carbon fibre weaving technology complete the package. What is even better is the wrapping in which this wonder of engineering arrives. Legendary Lamborghini styling presents the Aventador for your consumption. Geometric lines, upward sweeping doors, and an edgy profile combine for the perfect gift-wrapped edition.
