Need to know – Lamborghini Temerario 634

My driving passion is automotive engineering. I worked with industrial designers. Like an architect, these people are there to provide the vision, the lead. It was down to people like me – and engineer - to keep as much of that vision as possible, make it work and meet all required legislation and programme costs. I knew the role of design in the whole product creation process. Many of my former colleagues knew little of this, and carried on doing what they had done for decades before. As engineers our primary role is to solve problems creatively. In return for many hours of routine work, spending a few hours with industrial designers was fantastic. Not many engineers got that chance. Graduated in 1984 with an engineering degree and spent more than two decades working for OEMs, mainly in Europe, followed by two decades in the collision repair sector. Fellow of the IMI and Honorary Fellow of the Institute of Automotive Engineer Assessors.
