The aging, soon-to-be-replaced R8 among today’s most beautiful cars? Probably controversial. But the R8 remains every bit the design icon it was when it debuted nearly a decade ago. It’s telling that the car still looks like nothing else out there, with a semi-rounded surface theme that would probably look ridiculous on anything else. But paired with Audi’s delicate headlights and taillights, simple grille work, and that roofline, it makes for one gorgeous soon-to-be-retiree.

The TOP 10 Luxury Cars Available Today
1. Jaguar F-type Coupe
Whether you begin with the Jaguar F-type coupe’s proportions, its muscular shape, or its amazingly purposeful stance, this is a seriously pretty kitty. What about the roadster, you say? It, too, is gorgeous, but the coupe’s plunging roofline and more-defined rear haunches give it the edge. And the experience isn’t merely visual—the F-type R Coupe’s supercharged V-8 soundtrack is pure aural ecstasy.

And the experience isn’t merely visual—the F-type R Coupe’s supercharged V-8 soundtrack is pure aural ecstasy.2. Alfa Romeo 4C Spider
Sure, few Alfa Romeos are born ugly, but the mid-engine 4C sprung into this world like an 18-year-old Kate Upton: fully formed and capable of holding your eyeballs in a vice grip. Just stare at its curves, taut lines, and athletic posture, and before long you’ll be mentally transported to a twisty road somewhere in northern Italy. Bellissima. The Spider’s better-resolved, less-arachnidan headlight units give it the nod here, but the same pieces will soon be offered on the coupe, so you can’t really go wrong either way.

The Spider’s better-resolved, less-arachnidan headlight units give it the nod here, but the same pieces will soon be offered on the coupe, so you can’t really go wrong either way.3. Ferrari 458 Italia
We like the 458 Italia because it’s exactly what a Ferrari should be: race-car tech wrapped in stunning sheetmetal. In this case, the Pininfarina-penned, mid-engine sports car’s aggressive and almost brutally low body suits its knife-edged personality perfectly. We could spend hours poring over the 458’s numerous, carefully designed details—and we have.
4. Mercedes-Benz S-class Coupe
In the ultra-luxury realm, size matters—and it’s one of the reasons why the 2015 S-class coupe places so highly in our beauty rankings. This plus-size pinup’s use of proportion and its pervasive, tapering-arc design theme accentuate both its size and grace. The hood seems unbelievably long (a neat visual trick, courtesy of the upright and forward grille), and the three body-side lines add length and catch light like Tinker Bell scooping fairy dust. Did Germans really design this thing?

5. Aston Martin V8 Vantage
Wheels pushed to the absolute corners; classic long-hood, short-deck proportions; and clean, graceful sheetmetal: We can only be talking about Aston Martin’s V8 Vantage, a proper sports car through and through. This fifth-place showing comes as Aston continues to introduce special-edition models, which typically signify a car’s impending doom. But as with Jennifer Aniston, this hot car shows age is just a number.
6. Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4
We can practically hear your fingers hovering over those keyboards—yes, the Huracán isn’t as outrageous as bulls past, but that’s why it’s on this list. Even ignoring the badge on the stubby hood, this is an exceptionally clean yet exotic shape. Call it the High-Art Doorstop or Subtle Surfacing Perfected—either way, it’s a wonderful thing to behold.

The ELR plug-in’s non-traditional path to beauty—it possesses far more straight lines than curved—landed it on our list. In spite of its cab-forward, front-drive proportions, the ELR wears perhaps the most finely tuned iteration of Cadillac’s crisp, Art & Science design language. And the shape, classicism be damned, is dramatic, while the jeweled detailing and trim exude class, wealth, and style.

Even as the latest Porsche 911 has grown larger and pushed even further upmarket, there’s no denying the iconic sports car looks better for it. The new 911’s longer wheelbase and re-contoured tail lend it a wonderful stance, and the overall proportions still work well with Porsche’s classically curvy design language and the 911’s unique, tail-heavy profile. And we can’t talk about the 911 without mentioning those hips—they practically beg you to grab hold and . . . okay, we’ll stop.

9. Land Rover Range Rover
The Range Rover makes this list because of its pure surfaces. The previous-generation Range Rover was a rectilinear ode to the T-square, and while it was quite handsome, the new one makes it look blocky and cheap by comparison. We like the way Land Rover introduced a subtle curve to the door sections, not to mention the body’s more pronounced rearward taper. The more dynamic surfacing elevates the signature look to a new, even classier level.
10. Audi R8
The aging, soon-to-be-replaced R8 among today’s most beautiful cars? Probably controversial. But the R8 remains every bit the design icon it was when it debuted nearly a decade ago.

Getting Electricity in Cambodia
Below is a detailed
summary of the procedures, time and cost required for a business to obtain an
electricity connection for a newly constructed building in Cambodia.
This information was
collected as part of the Doing Business project, which measures and compares regulations
relevant to the life cycle of a small- to medium-sized domestic business in 190
economies. The most recent round of data collection was completed in June 2016.
Procedure
1 Submit application to Electricite Du Cambodge
and await estimate
Agency: Electricite Du Cambodge (EDC)
The application should
be submitted in person to the Distribution Department of Electricite Du
Cambodge. The application should include the following documents: a certificate
of property title (a photocopy is sufficient and there is no need for notarization)
and a certificate of company registration. The client has to fill a form
specifying the power needed and the list of equipment in the warehouse.
There are no official fees for the application. The time for this procedure includes an estimate for negotiation
There are no official fees for the application. The time for this procedure includes an estimate for negotiation
2 Receive site inspection by Electricite Du
Cambodge
Agency: Electricite Du Cambodge (EDC)
The Distribution
Department of EDC sends an inspector to check the site and the area. After the
inspection the EDC will do the assessment and quotation of the prices.
3 Await clearance from Electricite Du Cambodge
and sign contract
Agency: Distribution Department Electricite Du Cambodge (EDC)
The consumer should
obtain a clearance from the Distribution Department which has to assess whether
EDC has enough capacity. The clearance is issued by the Managing Director of
the Distribution Department. Once the clearance is issued the applicant signs a
contract and pays fees
4 Await completion of external works, meter
installation and final connection
Agency: Electricite Du Cambodge (EDC) and Electrical Contractor
For an additional load
of 140kVA installation of a transformer for 160 kVA will be required. The
external connection works are carried out by EDC. The meter gets installed at
the same time as when the connection is done. If there is a road crossing it
takes EDC additional 2 weeks to obtain an excavation permit
The security deposit has
to be paid and is returned upon the termination of the power consumption.
There is no supervision
/ inspection of the internal wiring before the final connection. EDC is
responsible only for the external connection. The customer's private electrical
engineer is in charge of the internal wiring. There is no requirement that the
electrician must be licensed, so they can practice without a license. However,
EDC is de facto the licencor of electrical engineers because they provide
training courses. Attendees of this training receive a certificate that EDC
recognizes. There is no other agency that provides the courses

Below is a detailed
summary of the steps, time and cost involved in registering property in
Cambodia. It assumes a standardized case of an entrepreneur who wants to
purchase land and a building that is already registered and free of title
dispute.
This information was
collected as part of the Doing Business project, which measures and compares regulations
relevant to the life cycle of a small- to medium-sized domestic business in 190
economies. The most recent round of data collection was completed in June 2016.
Agency: Land Office (District Level, Office of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning & Construction)The buyer verifies the title certificate with the Land Office, checking for potential liens or encumbrances
The
buyer should obtain a copy of the initial title certificate from the seller and
verify proper ownership, ensuring that the seller is the rightful owner of the
title certificate. He verifies the title certificate with the land office (it
is also possible to start this procedure at the Land Department at the
Provincial level) to ensure that there are no liens, mortgages or other
encumbrances registered for that property.

additional step to verify that there are no morel liens or other encumbrances
affecting the property object of the transaction
The buyer should obtain the certificate of
incorporation of the seller’s company and other documents from the seller
Agency: Ministry of Commerce
If
the landowner is a legal entity, the buyer should obtain a copy of the ID of
the shareholder or person acting on behalf of the company, and a
certified/notarized copy of the certificate of issued by the Ministry of
Commerce. These documents are needed to verify the accuracy and identity of the
company name appearing in the title certificate. A Power of Attorney is also
needed, as well as a resolution signed by the Board of Directors authorizing a
named individual to represent the company at the land office accompanied by the
Power of Attorney implementing that Resolution. This procedure is not required
by law, but carried out in practice to verify information of the seller.
Apply for registration at the District Land Office
of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning & Construction (MLMUPC)
Agency: Land Office, (District Level, Office of the Ministry of Land
Management, Urban Planning & Construction)
When
2 persons/companies wish to buy/sell real property, together they should go to
the district office of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning &
Construction (MLMUPC) and arrange to prepare and sign documents. The Land
office reviews the document, checks the existing land book and sends it to the
tax office to calculate the amount to be paid for the Transfer Tax. Before
that, the tax office will send their staff to the field to evaluate the
property. They have to inspect the property and assess its value. Once the
inspection is done, the tax office will ask the buyer to pay the transfer tax.
In order to complete this procedure, a cadastral transfer fee of KHR 600,000 is paid to MLMUPC.
The documentation shall include the company's statute, its Certificate of Incorporation, and Power of Attorney (obtained in Procedure 3). At the time, the original Title Certificate held by the seller must be presented to the Khan (District Level) at the time of signing the deed in order to have the name of the new owner inserted on the document.

A
transfer tax of 4% of value of the property is paid by the seller to the
Ministry of Economy and Finance at the Tax Collection Office of the location of
the transferred property. A Tax Receipt is issued to prove that the tax has
been paid. The 4% transfer tax is set out in Article 40 of the Law on Finance
for the year 1995. In Phnom Penh, this tax is not assessed based on the true
transacted value of the property but based on a schedule of price of property
determined by the Phnom Penh Municipality. The assessed value is usually based
on the total number of square meters, the land's location, use etc. For the
land of more than 1200m², the surplus is subject to unused land tax. For the
land less than 1200m², the unused land tax is not applicable. The time for the
tax office to complete the calculation of transfer tax will depend on the
location of the land and its size.
Return to Cadastral office to complete the
registration process
Agency: Land Department (Province Level of the Ministry of Land
Management, Urban Planning & Construction)
After
taxes are paid the parties return to the cadastral office at the MLMUPC and
sign/thumbprint a MLMUPC form for buying/selling real property that was filled
in by MLMUPC official. The signing/thumb printing will be witnessed by a local
authority such as commune chief who will also thumbprint. These Procedures are
based on Land Law Arts. 244 and 245. Land Law Art. 69 bars transfer unless all
necessary taxes are paid. The documentation shall include: (1) Payment receipts
of transfer tax (obtained in Procedure 5)
Obtain the certificate of title from the
Municipal Land Office

Management, Urban Planning & Construction)
The
Khan/District land office forwards all the "transfer documents" to
the Municipal Land Office where it issues the Certificate of Title in the new
owner's name and has it registered. The last procedural step in practice can
take several weeks, depending on the diligence of the land officials and
interested parties. The Certificate of Title is received at the Land Department
(Khan level)
