ou La Vie has taken South Florida by storm. More than just a luxury and exotic car rental company, Lou La Vie has created an ecosystem where art, music, and events commingle with the most beautiful collection of luxury and exotic cars. Lou La Vie’s Downtown Miami showroom which doubles as both an art gallery and a nightclub, boasts an impressive collection of top automobile brands such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Rolls Royce, and others. Lou La Vie, Exotic Car Rental Miami, which originally opened in Palm Beach in 2010, is the culmination of very passionate partners, affiliates and staff. In late October 2010 the company officially opened in Miami and has since become a prominent fixture on the highend short-term leasing scene. Lou La Vie, is the brainchild of owner and founder, John Temerian, who with his extensive experience in auto shows and event promotions, envisioned his company to become more than just a rental service. Temerian understood that the luxury and exotic car rental industry in South Florida lacked the personalized touch and exclusive experiences that its clients desired. Since the creation of the company, John Temerian has focused on putting together the right team of professionals to make Lou La Vie the premier car rental company in Miami. Starting by the
acquisition of Luxury Auto Club and hiring of its former CEO, Jordi Ricart. Indeed, Lou La Vie is founded and managed by individuals who truly live luxury and understand the white glove service that accompanies a lavish lifestyle. In February 2011, DJ Irie,
“South Florida lacked the personalized touch and exclusive experiences that its clients desired.” the official DJ of the 2006 NBA World Champions Miami HEAT, has officially signed on in connection with the luxury car rental company. DJ Irie is known both locally and nationwide for his immeasurable enthusiasm and ability to play beats that get fans and partygoers out of their seats. His contagious energy and natural rhythm for life is a key element in continuing to expand his expertise beyond the turntables.
Now an integral part of the Lou La Vie business model, and re-launched as the Lou La Vie Member’s Club, Lou La Vie has solidified itself as the company of choice for the elite. Through the Lou La Vie Members Club, clients gain access to their entire fleet on a preferential basis and at a preferential price. In addition to fleet access, Lou La Vie has created a panoply of unique experiences offered exclusively to its members. These experiences range from access to private events and VIP treatment at the finest venues to custom-tailored events all over the world. Memberships to their VIP Member’s Club start at $20,000, however Lou La Vie also rents its vehicles to the general public and has several yearly events available to non-members. Some of such events are track driving. Unlike typical luxury vehicle rental companies, Lou La Vie invites their clients and members to take their exotic cars to the track trough custom-tailored track rental packages. The concept is not just exhilarating but is also safe. Car fanatics get the opportunity to engage in an intense driving adventure on a track with a professional driving instructor and test their skills during high speed, advanced driving exercises all while handling the world’s top super-cars at their maximum performance

Mobile Mansion
A new line of luxury vehicles and usher in a new era in luxury mobility TEXT BY Hari Govind Nair
I
n our tryst to bring you the very best, we decided to find a machine that pushes the boundaries of mobility to a totally new level. With a very radical design theme, extreme spaciousness, and an envious driving experience, the Elemment is an ultra-luxurious recreational vehicle created by Austrian company Marchi Mobile. It is available in several versions and can be customized to suit your needs. The Elemment also comes with mobile Internet, a working fireplace, streaming video surveillance, satellite TV, and a glow-in-thedark paint job to improve night safety. You could have this stunning vehicle encrusted with diamonds, but that would hike up the price considerably. The Elemment’s 510hp engine will deliver top speeds of 150kmph, and has a mileage of 5.50kmpl. This RV is strictly limited edition, and Marchi Mobile is expected to produce about five a year. Sporty concept, luxe reality Marchi’s goal during the development of the Elemment was not only to introduce a new line of luxury vehicles ‒ but usher in a new era in luxury mobility. This has been accomplished by the creation of a perfect masterpiece that sets itself apart at first sight. The Elemment incorporates biomorphic shapes inspired by nature in a symbiotic relationship with design and function. Partially based on a design by Berlin-born industrial designer Luigi Colani, the Elemment offers reduced fuel consumption of up to 20 per cent, thanks to its trendsetting aerodynamics, thus creating economic and ecological harmony. Despite its eco-friendly values, the Elemment is truly sporty with a 510hp turbo-charged diesel engine, a unique carbon-fibre rear diffuser, and double-tube sport exhaust.
FEB-MAR 2014
Tailored to fit The different series of the Elemment offer mobility tailored to your needs: Elemment
Palazzo as a mobile home, Elemment Viva as a VIP shuttle, and Elemment Visione as a promotional vehicle. Special editions such as extended versions for overseas clients, or customized packages with a choice of different materials and colors are also available. Even though it encompasses individuality without limits, what all the Elemments have in common are precise manufacturing from superlative materials, a passion for detail, and a multitude of functions. A home away from home Relax in the company of friends with a chilled drink from one of the bars in the fully automatic, lift-able fly bridge lounge, or on the welcoming couch inside- a push of a button transforms the couch area into a stylish bar. A number of inventions ensure you experience the greatest level of comfort and security. A programmed central control provides access to vital information at a glance. Set-up and dismantling are executed by a graphic interface via touch screen. Park in front of your favorite restaurant, and monitor your vehicle via an additional control unit. Remote video access allows you to show your friends the RV’s exterior and interior and also allows you to pre-set lighting and temperature for your return to the vehicle. A VIP jet on wheels The six business lounge armchairs provide the right amount of comfort during trips to luxury shopping destinations, gala events, or simply your next business meeting. The swivel armchairs are equipped with massage function and climate control. Enjoy mobility at an interior height of more than 6.5 feet and get informed about all route-relevant information via the integrated information system.

Seductive design, intelligent performance and technological innovation were features of all Jaguar sports cars in the 1950s and 60s and they are prevalent in the incredible new FTYPE. I am delighted that the Jaguar sports car ‘bloodline’ was together in this great race and that such an exciting list of individuals came together to celebrate the occasion and drove our cars.”Jaguar has curated a unique team of drivers for its Jaguar Heritage Racing entry into this year’s Mille Miglia classic car tour. The seats of outstanding examples of Jaguar C-Type and XK120 heritage race cars were taken by six-time Olympic cycling Champion Sir Chris Hoy, global supermodel David Gandy, Le Mans 24 Hours race winner Andy Wallace, Chairman & CEO of 20th Century Fox Jim Gianopulos – who drove with a film industry colleague, German actress Hannah Herzsprung, Italian Salvatore Ferragamo Jr., fashion icon Yasmin Le Bon and Michael Quinn, the grandson of Jaguar founder Sir William Lyons. This exciting list of classic car enthusiasts was led by Jaguar Heritage Racing’s own mul-
tiple race winner Alex Buncombe and motoring journalist Chris Harris, who linked up for the event in a Jaguar C-Type once owned by former Formula 1 Champion Juan Manuel Fangio. The Mille Miglia is the pinnacle of classic motorsport, and the competitive event in 1952 saw Jaguar debut the disc brake on its C-type sports car, piloted then by Jaguar Chief Development Engineer Norman Dewis and Formula 1 legend Sir Stirling Moss. Norman Dewis was with some of the 2013 Jaguar Heritage Racing team at Goodwood Motor Circuit. The line-up of three C-Type race cars and three XK12Os was followed on the majority of the driving route by five new Jaguar F-TYPE sports cars.

he name Agera set the tone for the new project. Agera means “to take action” in Swedish. It is also short for the ancient Greek word Ageratos which means “ageless”. These two are very suitable meanings, for the car building the future of Koenigsegg. Although sharing the same values and philosophies as previous Koenigsegg models, the Agera takes the Koenigsegg experience to a completely new level. Similar to all previous Koenigsegg hypercars, the new Agera is the brainchild of Christian von Koenigsegg.The Agera has come to life in order to set new benchmarks for hypercars when it comes to control, handling, speed, comfort, practicality and sheer driving enjoyment, while combining these features with clean, efficient and beautiful design. The Agera engine has class leading power and torque characteristics. To give an example, the Koenigsegg 5 litre V8 bi-turbo engine develops more 940 hp on 95 octane regular fuel. The newly developed 7 speed gearbox for the Agera features a world’s first dual clutch system for a single input shaft gearbox. The tires fitted to the Agera are rated for speeds over 420 km/h making it the highest top speed rated tire in the world, whilst offering cup tire levels of grip and outstanding wet performance, all in one package

gera da nombre a un nuevo proyecto. Esta palabra significa “tomar medidas” en sueco pero en sus orígenes, en el griego antiguo, quiere decir “eterno”. Ambos significados encajan perfectamente con este coche del futuro de Koenigsegg. A pesar de compartir los mismos valores y filosofías de los modelos anteriores de Koenigsegg, Agera lleva la experiencia de la firma a un nivel completamente nuevo. Como todos los Hypercars Koenigsegg, el nuevo Agera surge de la idea original de Christian von Koenigsegg. Pero su nacimiento va mucho más allá ya que pretende establecer nuevos puntos de referencia para los Hypercars en cuanto a control, manejo, velocidad, confort, practicidad y el puro placer de conducción. Al mismo tiempo, combina estas características con un diseño limpio, eficiente e impecable. Agera tiene un motor cuyo poder lo convierte en líder de su clase así como sus prestaciones de alto rendimiento. Por ejemplo, el motor V8 biturbo de 5 litros desarrolla más de 900 caballos de fuerza en combustibles habituales de 95 octanos. La nueva caja de cambios de 7 velocidades de Agera cuenta con un primer sistema de doble embrague y un eje de entrada única. En este modelo los neumáticos montados están clasificados para lograr una velocidades superior a 420 km/h, característica que lo sitúa dentro de los neumáticos más valorados del mundo. Ofrece niveles de neumáticos taza de agarre y un rendimiento excepcional en suelo mojado, todo en un mismo paquete

t is the year 2013, and you find yourself sitting in the living room of your palatial mansion watching your favourite programme about the British aristocracy on your wall hanging 100 inch television when, suddenly, a commercial for a car appears. You already have several high-end cars, so why would you want this one? After all, they all seem to look and feel alike anyway. British car manufacturer Jaguar has taken on the challenge of erasing their average customer’s preconceived notions. Being billed as the logical successor to the legendary E-Type of the 1960s, the F-Type class was unveiled for the very first time at the Paris Motor Show to a star studded guest list. Lana Del Rey’s appearance only served to increase the curiosity of the patrons thanks to her latest song, “Burning Desire”, which will be featured in a short film about the F-Type as the soundtrack. Speed and adrenaline junkies will be happy to know that Jaguar has opted for an all-aluminum chassis. The focus of this design choice was to increase the acceleration of the car. The light-
weight material ensures that the car will not be weighed down, or even over encumbered. Providing the more gung-ho type of driver a great deal of agility and pickup. But that is only just one factor contributing to the speed of the vehicle. The aforementioned gung-ho driver will certainly demand a great deal of roaring power under the hood. F-Type will be available to customers in three versions, each with its own class of engine. The version eponymous to the class sports a supercharged V6 engine capable of hitting speeds of 60mph in 5.1 seconds and reaching a top speed of 161. The most powerful of the class is the F-Type V8S featuring, as the name would suggest, a supercharged V8 engine, reaching 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and topping out at 186mph. The sports-car is currently not available with a manual transmission, but thanks to Jaguars good reputation when it comes to taking user feedback, we can be sure that a manual model will be made available. Satisfying any need a sports-car enthusiast may have
