Tuning

Lamborghini Diablo Restomod

Among the number of existing tuner and restomod companies, another one, Eccentrica Cars, was recently founded. The main goal of the company is the restoration and modification of exotic cars, especially Lamborghini Diablo cars.

The company’s first project is based on the Lamborghini Diablo, a car that arrived on the market at the end of the last century. It was produced until 2001, and 2,884 units left the production line.

The restoration included the installation of lighter carbon components in place of the original panels. New lights, tires, brakes, suspension elements and a newly developed exhaust system were installed, and the tubular steel chassis was significantly strengthened. All this in order to adapt the car to the new era. Colombini revealed that in the Diablo restomod project they relied on the best components offered by Pirelli, Brembo, Capristo, Marantz and Alcantara.

When it comes to the powertrain, the standard Lamborghini Diablo is powered by a 5.7 L V12 engine with 485 hp (362 kW) and 428 lb-ft (580 Nm) of torque. The company did not reveal whether the engine was reworked, but it said that power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed instead of a 5-speed manual gearbox.

Whether we will see better restomod cars in the future, because obviously there are still those who yearn for older models of super cars, remains to be seen.

Lamborghini Centenario tractor

It’s been 107 years since the founder of Lamborghini, Ferruccio Lamborghini, was born. He was an Italian automobile designer, inventor, industrialist, and businessman who founded Lamborghini Trattori in 1948 and Lamborghini in 1963. Celebrating his 100th birthday, in 2016 Adler Capelli created a specially designed Lamborghini Centenario tractor.

All Lamborghini lovers know that Ferruccio produced tractors before he started producing high-end supercars. That was the inspiration for Capelli who, using car parts from the 1960s, created this unique vehicle.

There are few details about the tractor shown in the photos, but it is known that it is powered by a diesel 2.2-liter three-cylinder DLA 35 engine paired with a manual transmission, and that the odometer shows 500 kilometers.

The tractor is not painted and the reason for this is the artist’s intention that, over time, the tractor gets patina.

Capelli created five vehicles and the price of the Lamborghini Centenario tractor, shown in the picture, is 490,000 EUR. As a reminder, the Centenario from 2016 cost €1.75 million EUR.

Lamborghini Urus designed by Carlex Design

Polish company Carlex Design is known for creating exceptional designs for some of today’s best cars. Their latest work is the Italian car manufacturer’s SUV, the Lamborghini Urus.

The upper part of the car is finished in Pearl White, while the lower half is in Racing Green, which together create a racing line that starts at the rear spoiler and ends forward behind the hood emphasizing the arrow shape. The green shade continues on the 16-spoke wheels with the Carlex logo. The same logo adorns the C-pillar and the front part of the hood, where the line starts, extending over the entire body. The green and white theme is present throughout the vehicle including the windows.

The paint is applied with a brush effect that creates horizontal lines on the body and gives it a dynamic that is not common for luxury vehicles, whose manufacturers are usually obsessed with perfect lines.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in leather, bead white covering the seat backs, center armrest and most of the dashboard, while the lower part of the seats is green. The same combination covers the door panels. The floor mats and side backrests are also in green. The upper part of the dashboard is covered with Alcantara.
