In today’s world it is imperative for the students of any Post- Graduate course to keep pace with the changing technology innovations taking place across the world. In alignment with this, I prepared a Summer Report after my 2nd semester of MBA. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Bhupinder Singh Bawa (AGM – Prestige Motors) for giving me the opportunity to work with his esteemed organization. I would like to thank Mrs. Sonia Sharma (Sales Executive) for giving me product knowledge and their valuable support throughout the project. It was very enriching and enlightening experience to work under their valuable guidance. Without their support this project would not have been possible.

Finally and most important I would like to thank to faculty of GNDEC (Especially to Prop. Parampal Singh) to provide me with such an opportunity that has enhanced my learning horizon Last but not least, I thank the almighty, and may he stand with all of us.

Fu nell’oc- casione del ritrovamento di questo nucleo di disegni che i partecipanti al progetto si proposero di applicare il metodo impiegato nel predisporre il materiale raccolto nel libro FIAT, storie di innovazione tecnologica nelle automobili, anche per preparare un libro analogo dedicato alle automobili Lancia. Questo secondo libro, attraverso l’esame dei disegni tecnici, del materiale d’archivio e delle fotografie di automobili sopravvissute, illustra l’evoluzione delle vetture Lancia e i loro contenuti innovativi, spesso caratterizzati da elementi di assoluta originalità. Il reperimento del materiale si è mostrato, tuttavia, più arduo rispetto al lavoro sulle vetture FIAT, almeno per le automobili più anziane, poiché l’archivio dei disegni Lancia era organizzato senza impiegare una struttura logica di supporto, per distinguere agevolmente i diversi gruppi funzionali dai particolari di puro dettaglio.

At the 31st Auto e Moto d'Epoca show in Padua from 23rd to 26th October the wire wheel manufacturer Ruote Borrani showcases its range of classic wheels for cars and motorbikes. Wheels are made by hand strictly following the 8000+ original blueprints guarded in the company archives since 1923. Many of the valuable cars and motorbikes exhibited at the Padua show were fitted with Ruote Borrani as original equipment when first produced. Now that classic car values reach top heights, with HAGI © Top Index at all time high in September listing a staggering +163% growth in the last 6 years, owners find out that authentic refurbishment or replacement of their Borranis generates premium value in transactions, whilst inappropriate wheels cost precious points in Concours d'Elégance.
