Now I have passed 1,000 posts I formally return this thread to Green Machine,

Keep it going mate...I’ll chip in contributions, but you are now back in command. The centre seat is yours. Just ignore the stale beer and peanuts in your chair.

RE: Fascinating Facts and Trivia - GMach1 - 22-12-2018 21:11

Well done Carl a fantastic achievement mate. It's not my thread, I only created it, but I did it to attract others who just like the most incredible, amazing, strange and darn right fascinating stuff and a load of trivia that can be posted here for others to enjoy-and you've certainly done that in spades, so not in command, more a keeper or caretaker of the thread. Anyone can join in just as long as it's fascinating or trivial(this is how Trivial Pursuit was born) so thank you for your massive contributions. Stale beer and peanuts? Hmm so what I wonder were these suspicious-looking stains on the leather? Big Grin

An insult by Enzo Ferrari triggered the production of the Lamborghini 350 GTV (The 1st Lamborghini) - Commenting on how he thought a Ferrari was too noisy and rough for road use, Ferruccio Lamborghini faced insult from Enzo Ferrari with the super-car guru stating that "He didn't appreciate such comments from a middle aged tractor manufacturer". Ferruccio Lamborghini felt so insulted he went off and created his own car. Just four months later in 1963, the Lamborghini 350 GTV was unveiled at The Turin Motor Show.

For a few day's around Christmas 2010,UK Burger King Restaurants offered a 'Sprout Surprise Whopper'.
