Bull on a badge.

Bull on a badge.

 

It took just four months to create the prototype 350GTV Lamborghini which was unveiled to the world at the 1963 Turin Motor Show.

 

Designed by Franco Scaglione the car took the world by storm and the company has never looked back since that time.

 

An unusual feature on all Lamborghini’s is the logo which features a bull and this is due entirely to the fact that Ferruccio Lamborghini was born under the zodiac sign of Taurus, the bull.

 

He was also a devotee of bull fighting and spent a lot of his spare time watching the matadors duelling with bulls from which he took inspiration.

 

It was for this reason that he adopted the now famous bull logo for his cars.

 

The Lamborghini bull logo traces its roots back to the company's founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini.

 

Born under the zodiac sign of Taurus, Ferruccio deeply appreciated bullfighting and the strength and determination associated with the bull.

 

Inspired by his passion of bullfighting which hence led to his decision to extend to also naming models of his cars after bulls.

 

This particular Lamborghini was parked in a street in Cambridge.

 

Cambridge, Great Britain.
