    "factual_background": "<p>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&rsquo;s most famous luxury sports cars.<\/p>\n<p>The disputed domain name &lt;lamborghinirentaldubaii.com&gt; was registered on April 25, 2025 and it currently resolves to a parking page. The disputed domain name used to resolve to a web presentation of a car rental service in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Based on the undisputed evidence provided by the Complainant, this website offered rental of Lamborghini vehicles under the name \"Mr. Lamborghini\", with the prominent use of \"Mr. Lamborghini\" logo on the home page. It seems that only Lamborghini vehicles were offered for rent on this website. The website does not appear to contain any information regarding the nature of the relationship with the Complainant (or the lack thereof) as the owner of the LAMBORGHINI trademark.<\/p>",
    "other_legal_proceedings": "<p>The Complainant notified panel that the disputed domain name was subject to previous UDRP proceedings before Czech Arbitration Court under the case number CAC-UDRP-107951 where the consolidation of the disputed domain name was denied by the panel. Having reviewed the case record of the UDRP proceedings Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. v. Ievgeniia Kostenko, Mihail Golubev, Evgeniy Parokhod, Boris Knezevic, Zuhaib Hassan, CAC Case No. CAC-UDRP-107951, the Panel finds that there are no procedural obstacles to proceed with the decision in this matter, bearing in mind that the previous UDRP proceedings in respect to the disputed domain name were terminated without prejudice and without a decision on the merits. On the contrary, the procedure was terminated due to rejection of the request for consolidation of the disputed domain name with other domain names involved in the proceedings, meaning that the Complainant was free to submit a new complaint in relation to the disputed domain name.<\/p>",
    "no_response_filed": "<p>The Complainant contends that the requirements of the Policy have been met and that the disputed domain name should be transferred to it.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, the Complainant argues that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to its well-known LAMBORGHINI trademark as this trademark is contained in its entirety within the disputed domain name along with the descriptive term \"rental\", geographical addition \"Dubai\" and meaningless suffix \"i\". Further, the Complainant contends that \".com\" gTLD does not affect the domain name for the purpose of determining the identity or similarity of a domain name and a trademark.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the second UDRP element, the Complainant asserts that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name. There is no indication of Respondent&rsquo;s use of the disputed domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods or services. The disputed domain name was used at least until September 2025 for a website offering luxury car rental service and after filing of the consolidated complaint in case CAC-UDRP-107951 (which also included the disputed domain name) by the Complainant, the disputed domain name started resolving to a parking page. The use of the disputed domain name in connection with car rental services is not a non-commercial use and does not represent a fair use. Neither license nor authorization has been granted or permission was given to the Respondent to use the Complainant's trademark and the Respondent is also not commonly known by the disputed domain name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With respect to the third UDRP element, the Complainant holds that its LAMBORGHINI trademark is well-known and that the mere registration of a domain that is identical or confusingly similar to a famous widely known trademark by an unaffiliated entity can by itself create a presumption of bad faith. the Respondent has used the disputed domain name in an attempt to attract Internet users for commercial gain by creating confusion with the Complainant&rsquo;s trademark. The Complainant holds that there is a pattern of conduct on the Respondent's side as he, in the Complainant's view is connected to a number of similar domain name registrations that connected LAMBORGHINI trademark with terms such as \"Dubai\" and \"rental\" and many of which were subject to UDRP proceedings that were decided in favor of the Complainant. The Complainant has also produced evidence from UDRP proceedings CAC-UDRP-107691 where the respondent in those proceedings (or person connected to the respondent) claims to run licensed car rental agency in Dubai offering premium Lamborghini and Ferrari rentals, for which purposes they are using a significant number of domain names that contain LAMBORGHINI trademark, including the disputed domain name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>No administratively compliant Response has been filed.<\/p>",
    "rights": "<p>The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the disputed domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the Complainant has rights (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(i) of the Policy).<\/p>",
    "no_rights_or_legitimate_interests": "<p>The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the Respondent to have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(ii) of the Policy).<\/p>",
    "bad_faith": "<p>The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the disputed domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(iii) of the Policy).<\/p>",
    "procedural_factors": "<p>The Panel is satisfied that all procedural requirements under UDRP were met and there is no other reason why it would be inappropriate to provide a decision.<\/p>",
