Today I'm going to talk to you about my favourite car brand of all time. They have come a long way since they were founded in 1963 and too me personally, they are absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately they are not the most affordable, though I would really recommend them for anyone who can afford to splash out.
Lamborghini was founded by a man called Ferruccio Lamborghini who the company is named after. Before he launched his brand of sports cars, Ferruccio had made his money in the business of tractor manufacturing, which he launched in the years following World War 2. In 1963 he began making sports cars with the intention of competing with the likes of Ferrari. He was a very successful businessman during this time period and the company developed rapidly. However his business began to struggle after the 1973 oil crisis.He ended up selling the company and retiring in 1974.
The ownership of the company changed several times and it is owned by Volkswagen Group since 1998. The company has faced some hard times over the years with the years. They went bankrupt in 1978 and they had a drop in sales of nearly 50% following the financial crisis of 2008. However they are still one of the most popular and loved luxury car manufacturers in the world today.
My favourite Lamborghini model is the Aventador. These cars have an elegant design and they are also incredibly fast. They can reach a speed of 0 to 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds.
