Jack Vidgen Steps Out At Fashion Week After Debuting Transformation
Jack Vidgen stepped out at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Sydney last week. The former Australia's Got Talent champion, who won the series in 2011, showcased his complete facial transformation at the Justin Cassin runway show on Wednesday. Two days earlier, the 22-year-old had left fans stunned when he debuted his dramatic new look in a trailer for the new season of The Voice Australia. 鈥?Slide me 鈥?Wow! Jack Vidgen, 22, flaunted his complete facial transformation at Australian Fashion Week on Wednesday. Jack wore high-waisted black pants and a turtleneck jumper, completing his look with a baggy blazer draped over his shoulders. Blast from the past! Share 3.7k shares Adding a pop of colour to the all-black ensemble, the aspiring singer opted for a pair of white sneakers. Looking thoroughly bronzed after a spray tan, Jack blended in perfectly with the models and socialites in attendance. He's all grown up! Back in the spotlight! On May 13, it was announced that Jack would be one of the 'All Stars' attempting to revive their career on the eighth season of The Voice. But Jack's physical appearance has distracted from his musical talent in recent weeks. Many fans have questioned if he's had cosmetic work done, but Jack claimed in 2017 that any changes to his looks are due to puberty. In 2017, Jack said his changing face was simply down to puberty.
With the new Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, the Stuttgart-based manufacturer and its Formula 1 partner McLaren pay testimony to their many years of experience in developing and producing high-performance sports cars. The Gran Turismo of the 21st century consists almost entirely of carbon fiber composites (CFK). This light and yet extremely rigid material comes from aerospace technology and has also stood up to the rigors of Formula 1 racing. The high-tech material is around 50% lighter than steel. Yet at the same time, the carbon fibers provide four to five times better energy absorption than steel or aluminum in an impact. Adaptive airbags, newly developed kneebags and sidebags as well as belt tensioners round off the safety features. Mercedes-Benz has also used new materials technology to manufacture the brake discs. In the interests of perfect dynamic handling and superior stability under braking, the new Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren has been designed as a front-mid-engined sports car. Mounted on a sturdy aluminum frame, the high-performance V8 engine is set low to provide a low centre of gravity and enhance the agility of the car. With a displacement of 5.5 liters, the supercharged engine develops 460 kW/626 hp.
Its maximum torque of 780 Newton meters is available over a wide rev band, coming on tap at 3250 rpm and remaining constant up to 5000 rpm. This makes the SLR eight-cylinder version one of the most powerful engines in a series-produced road going sports car. The high-performance sports car takes just 3.8 seconds to get from 0 to 100 km/h, reaches the 200 km/h mark after 10.6 seconds and 300 km/h in 28.8 seconds. The top speed is 334 km/h. In conjunction with McLaren, Mercedes-Benz has developed a highly sophisticated aerodynamic design to ensure that the exacting requirements made of such a high-performance car in terms of high-speed handling, stability and air-cooling are fully met. This aerodynamic design provides outstanding roadholding and, in turn, the safety that drivers have come to expect from Mercedes. As a result of extensive wind tunnel testing, the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren has a virtually flat underfloor section and features a special six-channel diffusor at the rear. Both are proven design features taken from Formula 1. They help ensure the airflow under the vehicle is virtually undisturbed and also generate downforce at higher speeds. At the rear, the SLR generates additional downforce with an adaptive spoiler. At speeds of 95 km/h and higher, it automatically rises to a 10-degree angle into the wind and so increases the negative lift force on the rear axle.
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is an illustration of understated speed. At the European Automaxx Streetpower 2019 even, on a damp Zandvoort Circuit, this unassuming, 800-hp (596-kW) E-Class mopped up the competition. Pun intended. The Renntech-tuned E-Class barely separates itself from the base model with minor exterior modifications (and engine upgrades, obviously), but otherwise, it鈥檚 completely stock. This owner understands you don鈥檛 need to be flashy to dominate on the track. The Benz lines first against an Audi RS6 Avant. We can鈥檛 tell if this is the 450-hp (335-kW) base model, the 605-hp (451-kW) Performance model, or anything in between. Whatever the case, this is a fast wagon. But the Benz, even with a significant tail wag off the line, shows the Audi which car is boss by beating it down the line. Against a 1,200-hp (894-kW) Nissan Skyline, the Benz has less luck on the first go. The Nissan has better grip, and thus, gets a better jump. But the four-door luxury vehicle, shockingly, stays competitive with the more-powerful coupe all the way to the finish line. The Skyline only beats it slightly, by our account. The Benz later goes on to take down a number of other challengers. Cars like a modified Audi S8, Audi TTRS, BMW M3, another E63, and a Nissan GT-R, even, all line up against the Benz with less-than-stellar results. There鈥檚 no clock to tell us how fast the E-Class is actually moving in the clip, but even on a damp track, this thing looks quick.
What to look for when buying a used Mercedes-Benz C-Class? The Mercedes-Benz C-Class compact luxury cars replaced the 190 range of compacts in 1993 as the smallest offering in the Mercedes lineup at the time. Most C-Class cars sold in the United States are built in Germany or Mexico and the car is now in its fourth generation. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is often referred to as a "luxury compact" and as an "executive compact." Body types range from two-door coupes to four-door sedans and five-door station wagons. The first-generation C-Class came in 1994 in both four-door sedan and five-door wagon styles. The car introduced the new letter-number naming scheme used by Mercedes-Benz through to today, with the C-Class being the overall model range and the C followed by a number designating the car's engine. The C 220, for example, was a 2.2-liter four-cylinder version of the C-Class offered at the C-Class' introduction. The C 230 replaced that with a slightly larger engine and the C 280 became the higher-end offering for the C-Class with its straight-six cylinder engine.
