Lamborghini Murciel AGO LP650 -4 ROADSTER





















This is the Edward Scissorhands of super cars. Think about it - with just over 640 bhp available , the Murcileago LP640 was already skirting with danger, ready to slash your wrists if you didn't respect the power and handling finesse available . So when Lamborghini decided that your haircut needs to get a littel quicker, then added another 10 bhp , put in a new paint scheme abd literally put Edward at the helm of procceedings as far as the Barchetta is concerned . it's called the Mucielago LP650 -4 Roadster and is the last hurrah before the next Murcieago starts to flirt with hearbeats in 2010-11 . Lamborghini will offer 50 of thse fine bulls to signify the end of an era . 50 of these fine bulls to signify the end of an era. it's finished in carbon grey with a steak of orange for the bumper lip spoiler , skirts and
rear, along with LP650-4 badging on the flanks and breaks callipers in the same colour .
with the increased power in the same colour . With the increased power, the Lambo can now hit 100 kph in just 3.4 seconds , with top speed on the positive side of 320 kph.

Chocolate fuel to power car made of plants In British


The bio car.


BRITISH scientists hope chocolate will help power one of the world's first biofuel vehicles.

Its makers hope the formula three racer, powered by waste from chocolate factories, will reach 230 km/h and give manufacturers ideas about how to build more ecologically friendly vehicles.

The car runs on vegetable oils and chocolate waste that has been turned into biofuel. The steering wheel is made of plant-based fibres derived from carrots and other root vegetables, and the seat is built of flax fibre and soybean oil foam. The body is also made of plant fibres.

Scientists at the University of Warwick say their car is the fastest to run on biofuels. It has been built to formula three specifications of size, weight and performance. Their claims cannot be independently verified.

They hope it can reach speeds of over 230 km/h when it is tested on a racetrack in a few weeks. They have driven it at about 110 km/h and are making engine adjustments before attempting top speed.

Warwick's project manager, James Meredith, said the model showed it was possible to build a fast and efficient car that was environmentally friendly.

The car, named the World First Formula 3 racing car, will go on display at several auto races in Europe.
