As the Respondent did not file any response to the complaint, the Panel took into account the following facts asserted by the Complainant (and supported by the documentary evidence submitted by the Complainant) and unchallenged by the Respondent:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Complainant is an Italian manufacturer of high-performance sports cars based in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. The company was founded in 1963 by Ferruccio Lamborghini as Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini. The vehicles of the Complainant belong to the world’s most famous luxury sports cars. The Complainant’s group promotes Lamborghini cars in different languages worldwide on the internet, inter alia at www.lamborghini.com;<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The Complainant is the owner of the Complainant’s Trademarks which are well-known trademarks enjoying strong reputation worldwide; and <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. There is a website under the disputed domain name offering rental of luxury cars in the city of Dubai, including those of the Complainant, however, some other car brands are also offered for rental at such website, including Ferrari, Mercedes, BMW and Audi. The website does not contain any information as to its relationship with the Complainant as the owner of Complainant's Trademarks.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>", "other_legal_proceedings": "

    The Panel is not aware of any other legal proceedings which are pending or decided and which relate to the disputed domain name.<\/p>", "no_response_filed": "

    THE COMPLAINANT:<\/span><\/p>\n

    In addition to the above stated factual assertions, the Complainant also contends the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The disputed domain name is confusingly similar to Complainant’s Trademarks as it includes the Complainant's Trademarks in their entirety and addition of a generic term “rent” and geographic term \"dubai\" to the disputed domain name cannot diminish confusing similarity;<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. \n

      There disputed domain name has not been used by the Respondent in connection with a bona fide offering of goods or services. Although the Respondent appears to have been providing rental services of Complainant's cars, the website under the disputed domain name fails to meet the requirements of Oki Data test as established in the WIPO Case No. D2001-0903 Oki Data Americas, Inc. v. ASD, Inc., <okidataparts.com> as it does not disclose its relationship with the Complainant and vehicles of other brands are offered for rental at such website. Respondent is not commonly known by “Lamborghini”, “rent”, “Dubai” or “lamborghinirentdubai”. No permission to use Complainant's Trademarks was granted by the Complainant to the Respondent. Therefore, the Respondent does not have rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name; and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      Complainant’s use of its trademarks and business activities as a world-famous car manufacturer predates the registration of the disputed domain name by decades. Respondent obviously had actual knowledge of Complainant´s trademarks when acquiring the disputed domain name as he aims to attract owners of Complainant’s cars. The conclusion of Respondents prior knowledge of Complainant’s trademarks is supported by the fame and distinctiveness of Complainant´s Trademarks. By registration and use of the disputed domain name the Respondent has intentionally attempted to attract users for commercial gain, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant's Trademarks. As a result, the disputed domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith by the Respondent.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      For these reasons the Complainant believes that it satisfies all requirements under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (\"<\/span>UDRP<\/strong>\" or \"<\/span>Policy<\/strong>\") for transfer of the disputed domain name to the Complainant.<\/span><\/p>\n
