Digital Desk: A car technician from Assam's Karimganj rebuilt an old Swift into a Lamborghini Squadra Corse open-top track super sports vehicle SC20, which costs over Rs 5 crore in India, and donated it to the person he completely loves — chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
Nurul Haque, 33, told TOI that he spent four months and Rs 10.20 lakh he saved to build the Lamborghini imitation in his own garage in Karimganj town.
Nurul had built an identical car the previous year, but it did not meet his expectations. It took him another year and Rs 4.5 lakh to create the flawless model. The 2021 model was yellow, but this year's model is white.
CM Sarma received the gift on Tuesday in Silchar. "Also got the thrill of being behind the wheel of a 'Lamborghini' assembled by Nurul Haque, a car enthusiast from Karimganj," he tweeted, along with photos of himself inside the car.
"When I handed him the automobile, he blessed me and told me to take it to Guwahati," Nurul explained. He also stated that he will drive the automobile to Guwahati on Thursday. The trip is generally nine hours long, but Nurul said he may have to make numerous unscheduled stops since people want to snap selfies with the automobile.
When asked what makes Himanta Biswa Sarma unique? "I love him because I like him," Nurul responded.
Nurul stated that he dismantled the used Swift and used a new chassis identical to the SC20 while keeping the Swift's engine and gear system. The original automobile is composed of carbon fibre, but Nurul's repair sheets are made of aluminized steel.
Nurul chose to design his own seats rather than borrow them from the Italian manufacturer. The wheels are identical to the SC20, as is the steering wheel, which Nurul claims he got from a dealer. In the replica, he also used the same scissor doors, which swing up vertically rather than swinging outward like traditional car doors.
"The only difference is that the scissor doors on the original SC20 are automatic, whereas in my car they are manual, and I fabricated the hinges to save money." "Automatic hinges are expensive — around Rs 4 to Rs 5 lakh, while manual hinges are around Rs 95,000," he explained.
Nurul, who has completed Class 5, has been servicing automobiles for about 15 years and is passionate about sports cars, notably the world-famous Italian brilliance. "I intend to construct a Ferrari replica next," he stated.
