5 Nov 2015 - SYDNEY's Bondi Beach - Special thanks to Autosports Lamborghini Sydney for the VIP invitation to the private and exclusive unveiling of the brand new Lamborghini Huracan Spyder 2016 model. I am a big fan of spiders/spyders/convertible cars and this Spyder was stunning in its sleek design and bright green color. If you watched the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder official launch video, it will take your breath away as it highlights how this car is designed to cut through the air and become one with the sky. "Nobody ahead of you and not even above you" is indeed a very interesting tagline and the idea of being "Limitless" makes the driver feel empowered once he gets behind the wheel and start the engine to the beautiful roar of the V10 engine. With a top speed of more than 325km/h and the ability to reach 0-100km/h in just 3.2 seconds, the Lamborghini Hurcan Spyder is a powerful machine that seeks to impress the driver and onlookers. It is dubbbed as a "time machine" whereby nothing from the past can beat its new technology!

Lamborghini Club of Australia - The Bull's Roar Magazine - Issue No. 70 - Sept 2015 - In the midst of moving into my new home, I forgot to update my address. Luckily, Secretary/Treasurer of the club - Gary Overs was kind enough to deliver the magazine to me in person and we had a short coffee session to chat over upcoming Club events. This newly printed Lamborghini Club Australia Magazine has a different feel to it as the club has changed its editor and printing company. I love the new look, creative design and the glossy new pages. This is definitely a new improved version of the Club Magazine and I hope the team will continue their great work producing our club magazines!

THE SG SISTERS visits the official Lamborghini Factory/Museum & Ferruccio Lamborghini Family Museum in ITALY - I discovered that my name "Lora Christelle Lim" was actually printed on the cover of this magazine! WOW! In this magazine, there is a special feature about how my sister Sara Shantelle Lim and I had a truly wonderful time visiting the official Lamborghini Factory/Museum in Bologna as well as the Ferruccio Lamborghini Family Museum in Funo. Special thanks to legendary ex chief test driver for Lamborghini - Valentino Balboni and Fabio Lamborghini who provided really kind and warm hospitality for our entire family during our visit in June 2015. It was an epic birthday celebration for my sister Sara as we had a private Italian gourmet lunch with Valentino Balboni the man himself! It was a really special and memorable trip as I met the only son of Ferruccio Lamborghini - Tonino Lamborghini in person and also had a private lunch with Fabio Lamborghini after a special tour around the Ferruccio Lamborghini Family Museum :)
Lora Christelle Lim's writing - It was great to see my very own writing and photos being published in print and in the most prestigious Lamborghini Club Australia magazine. I am totally ecstatic and shared the great news with my family and friends. I must say it has been a great honour and privilege to be a member of the Lamborghini Club of Australia where everyone in the club is equally passionate about exotic cars and are genuine Lamborghini aficionados. We can seriously marvel over the beauty of cars and chat about them all day! I have made great friends with the awesome people in the club and not forgetting John Edwards as well as Gary Overs for organizing all the fantastic drives for all club members. I am looking forward to the next club event!

SYDNEY - Lamborghini Club of Australia NSW Members Club Drive from Sydney to Galston - On 27 Sept 2015 Sunday, John Edwards, the NSW co-ordinator of the club organized a drive starting from Autohaus Prestige where breakfast was provided with compliments from David Butler (Autosports Lamborghini Sydney) for all members. I was waiting at Calga for the convoy to arrive from Sydney which is the next meeting point as it was nearer to my home in Newcastle, NSW.
Together we drove down towards Rosie's Cafe at Galston for a nice lunch. The weather was pretty cooling as it rained a little but the sun was also blazing on our cars at mid afternoon. The beautiful sunlight allowed us to take magnificent photos of all the stunning Lamborghini that reminded me of Skittles the candy. The highlight of this drive was that David Butler drove a brand new Silver Lamborghini Huracan from the Lamborghini Sydney showroom. Oh, the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder has been launched recently and I can't wait to see it in person once it arrives in Sydney! My love for convertible cars :)

A police car drove passed our convoy but we were not speeding so no fines were issued out!
Overall, it was a great turnout and I managed to catch up with my girlfriend Amelia Robson who drove the McLaren 650S Spider for the first time :) She's such a lucky girl! Looking forward for the next club drive where we will be heading down South of Sydney to Coolangatta Estate Winery. Enjoy the photos taken with my iPhone 6. A big thanks to all members who showed up for this event :) Cheers!

SYDNEY - Lamborghini Club Australia Combined NSW and VIC Members East Meet - During the long Easter weekend, some of us met up in Albury and stayed for a couple of nights at Albury Manor House. We spent time driving and exploring around the beautiful countryside of Albury NSW as well as got to know one another better. As there were double demerits during the Easter Weekend, all of us drove really carefully within the legal speed limits to avoid any trouble. We also brought big smiles to many petrol stations and their staff as our cars do drink lots of fuel. You seriously wouldn't want to know how much we spend on petrol!
I always enjoy attending club events and meeting new members as being the youngest member in the club, I am always eager to learn and gather new knowledge from others. Most of them are able to afford such expensive Supercars because of the sheer amount of hard work and sacrifice they went through in their younger days. None of them relied on their rich parents to buy them one so when they finally bought one, they feel immense joy and tremendous satisfaction! It is always amazing to learn how these people achieved success and now be able to enjoy so much leisure time with the steady inflow of passive income. They are of great inspiration to me and their love and great passion for cars is simply admirable! Some of them even picked up car mechanic skills in order to spend time fixing their cars in their own garages. Maybe one day I will too!

DARTMOUTH DAM - We enjoyed a lovely drive to check out the largest capacity dam in Victoria that stores over 4 million megalitres of high quality water from the alpine areas of Victoria. As it was quite a quiet area, we all got down from our cars, enjoyed the beautiful and tranquil scenery that surrounded us and took some pretty amazing photos. It was also hilarious to spot 40 speed limit signboards where we decided to feature the fast and furious Lamborghini Aventador as a "role model". A Facebook comment we received was that "you might as well push the car" as like all Supercars, all Lamborghinis only enjoy going really fast and definitely not below 40km/h. Some even joked that our cars get really angry when we go this slow!!!
MITTA MITTA - We drove to the iconic The Mitta Pub formerly known as The Laurel Hotel located at Mitta Mitta which is known as the jewel in the crown of Mitta Valley for lunch. The view was spectacular outside the dining room as it overlooks Snowy creek and it set in the middle of bush surroundings. Lush greenery, beautiful trees and a sparkling river running, I must say Australia is extremely beautiful! This is a little beautiful spot for a relaxing and cozy lunch and a perfect stopover. The owner also requested to take a photo of our beautiful cars so take a look at this!

MOUNT BEAUTY - The most beautiful and scenic drive was to Mount Beauty located at the Southern end of picturesque Kiewa Valley and at base of the state's highest mountain - Mount Bogong. There were stunning lookouts along the way and we were able to enjoy the scenic backdrops of Mother Nature's greatest creations. It was a magnificent drive through windy and curvy mountainous roads where we get to test our driving skills to the limit, passing through beautiful trees filled with striking autumn leaves. Deep ruby reds, rich golden yellows, vivid pinks of the dazzling autumn leaves together with the colors of our cars created a truly enchanting kaleidoscope of colors! Thrusting our cars as take each corner without braking was adrenalin-pumping. We stopped by at Treats cafe to enjoy some hot coffee and gourmet sandwiches before continuing on our drive. Everyone learned from me how to do the "Scissors" hand sign during photo-taking as it signifies our love and admiration for Lamborghini's iconic "scissors doors"!
DINNER AT ALBURY MANOR HOUSE - Most of the nights we had dinner at Albury Manor House as most of us were extremely tired from an entire day's of driving. Also, it was easier for those who enjoy drinking alcohol to simply go upstairs to their hotel room to sleep without having any worries about getting caught for drink driving by the police. None of us would risk losing our driver's license! I look forward to attending the next event as every drive is a refreshing new journey where I get to explore fresh new places and gain new insights! Life is beautiful and truly interesting! :)
