«Δεν θέλω να ψηφίζω πια για να τιμωρήσω τους αχρείους»

Με τι κριτήριο θα ψηφίσει η Πέγκυ Σταθακοπούλου

Η Πέγκυ Σταθακοπούλου ρωτήθηκε σε πρόσφατη συνέντευξή της αν θα ψηφίσει στις επαναληπτικές εκλογές που θα γίνουν σε λίγες μέρες.

Η ηθοποιός εξομολογήθηκε ότι θα ψηφίσει αν και δεν θέλει γιατί νιώθει απογοητευμένη με όσα έχουν συμβεί στην χώρα μας.

"Yes, I will vote. Το πρόβλημά μου είναι ότι δεν θέλω να ψηφίζω πια, για να τιμωρήσω τους αχρείους, ούτε θέλω επίσης να ψηφίζω το κόμμα που θα προκαλέσει στην ζωή μου και στην χώρα μου το λιγότερο κακό. Δυστυχώς τα κόμματα δεν με έχουν πείσει, ότι ενδιαφέρονται περισσότερο για τη χώρα από ότι για το καλό των συμφερόντων τους», δήλωσε στην εφημερίδα Metro.

Premiere for the new BMW Zagato Coupe

At the Italian Classic Car Show Villa d'Este Elegance Competition in Italy the German company presented in collaboration with Zagato a very interesting prototype based on its coupe version BMW Z4.

This is a sufficiently impressive and hand-made for the occasion concept car created exclusively for the needs of the presence of the Bavarian company at the exhibition in question, which takes place these days on the shores of Lake Como in Italy. According to what the two collaborating sides have announced so far (BMW Zagato), whose relationship dates back to 1959, when they were first introduced by BMW 3200 Michelotti Vignale and BMW 700 (1959) and it continued 1962 and 1978 with the premiere of BMW 3200 CS Bertone and BMW M1, the new Zagato Coupe is the Italian brand's perspective on the sports coupe model category. It is worth noting at this point that this is not a static prototype model, but for a "dynamic" car which has already been tested on the road by the BMW executives. An element that – if nothing else- does not exclude the possibility that the new Zagato Coupe will in the near future be a first-class source of inspiration so that at some point a corresponding "product" will be included both in the production line and in the range of available BMW models.

The bodywork of the new Zagato Coupe is based on, as is natural, in that of the BMW Z4. Unfortunately, both the latter and Zagato do not currently give information regarding the options in the mechanical parts (see. engines, transmission coc). By design, the result is certainly impressive, as the front of the car is dominated by BMW's characteristic muscular grille, which is decorated especially for the occasion with dozens of "z" referring to its creators. from there on, the impressions are stolen by the long hood, the side trims located on the front fenders, the pronounced double swells on the roof (double bubble), as well as of course the "intense" end of the tail.
