    Lamborghini Lost 15 Aventador Ultimae On Sunken Felicity Ace Will Restart Production

    A fire broke out on the ship around the middle of February

    We all thought it might happen and now we have confirmation that Lamborghini will indeed restart production of the Aventador to replace the 15 examples of the Ultimae that perished on the Felicity Ace.

    A fire broke out on the ship around the middle of February and despite efforts to try and save it, it sank on the first of March with just under 4,000 cars on board.

    85 of these cars were Lamborghini’s most of which were Urus SUVs but 15 of them were the limited edition swansong of the Aventador, the Ultimae.

    In a media roundtable with US and UK journalists, Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann confirmed the V12 supercar will re-enter production. The head honcho admitted it’ll be “tricky” to replace the ill-fated Aventador Ultimae units that were heading to buyers from the United States.

    “This was the edition which was closing the production of the Aventador, and there were 15 onboard the ship. We put our heads together, and luckily, we are able to replace those cars, so there will be no loss for our customers in the US due to the sunken ship. This is good news.” Winkelmann said.

    At this stage, it is not known if this will delay the Aventador successor but if it does, it should not affect it too badly.

    The entire Volkswagen Group is working hard on fulfilling the lost orders but this hand-built special edition supercar is sure to be the most challenging product to be reproduced.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
