Why The Lambo LM-002 Is The Ultimate Winter Car
Go big or go home; that’s the one rule for buying an SUV. And you can’t get much bigger than the Rambo Lambo LM-002. Cruise around in an LM-002 and footballists in Range Rovers and even pansy Eterniti Artemises will sh*t themselves in fear as you rumble past.
For sheer size and proper balls-out butchness you simply can’t beat the LM-002. Plus Lamborghini is the best badge in the business. Don’t even try to argue; Lambo does the hypercar thing better than anyone else – even with Cherman Audi bods guarding the Lamborghini piggy bank.
So what’s so special about the brute that is the LM-002? Well, under the bonnet is a horny, fire-breathing 5.2-litre V12 powerhouse nicked from the Countach, which churns out 450 rabid Italian stallions. And poking out of the back are twin exhausts that bellow louder than God mid tantrum. Redline this baby and you’ll smash through the 60mph mark in less than eight seconds, hit 130mph and make ecomentalists explode in fury. Win. And obviously Clarkson loves it:
Sandwiched underneath the LM-002 is proper Defender-grade four-wheel drive tech plus absolutely enormous runflat tyres to help you plough through snow, mud, sand, post-apocalyptic piles of bodies…you name it.
In fact Lamborghini designed this car as a military-spec Hummer rival so it’s just as happy in downtown Basra as Basildon town centre. Thinking about it, considering the LM-002 has a £400-per-tank petrol addiction and an 8mpg thirst, you might want to keep it close to the oil fields...but the sound alone is worth the crippling cost. Turn your speakers up and enjoy:
Fill the tank on this XXXL Lambo and the petrol alone weighs nearly as much as the Aixam Coupe S we’ve been arguing about all week. Not that it put off many customers. That nice old Libyan guy, Mr Gaddafi bought 100 military-spec models. And other LM-002 drivers include one of Saddam Hussein’s sons, Silvester Stallone, Mike Tyson and bonkers Fear and Loathing author, Hunter S Thompson. Standard.
You can keep your Range Rovers, for me this is the ultimate 80s motor And how much for the pleasure of making ancient Volvo drivers soil themselves when you hustle into their rear view mirrors? Well, brand new in 1987 this polished wood and leather lined Lambo cost £82,000 (or £190,000 in 21 st century money) but you can pick up a beaut’ now
=lamborghini&request=lm002&request=1">from just 88,500 euros. Bargain.This 2.7 tonne monster’s definitely got a parking space (make that two…) in my fantasy garage, but does the LM-002 have a home in yours?
