Running with the bulls: celebrating Lamborghini's 50th anniversary

Lamborghini commemorated its 50th birthday with a 350-strong convoy through Italy. Autocar's Mark Tisshaw joined the party

 

 

50th Anniversary of the Mercedes Pagoda SL

Penned by designer Paul Bracq, the W113 SL had big shoes to fill: it had the incredible task of succeeding the original and instantly iconic 300 SL Gullwing. But you can't copy a legend, so Bracq designed one of his own. Straight lines replaced curves and a low-slung roof was replaced by a high top design that gave the car its nickname: the Pagoda.
