LM002 = rhino on steriods
i think it had 10 gears and the tyres were £1200 each!

i think it was that one, could well of been a dodgy kit car but it had a bit of lambo about it, had a cool ass trailer with a load of surf boards too

LM002 eh? Did it look anything like this piece of lunacy then? Strange things the LM002, I've never been able to like them to be honest, that may be a gorgeous engine, but the car itself seems a little too silly to me, sort of an ugly, tasteless, decedent Sultan of Brunei's wet dream that isn't even that good, it just looks like a cross between a US army Hummer and a poorly made kit car, and the interior reminds me a great deal of poorly tarted up 1980s Scanias I used to see a lot as a kid when my dad's mates were driving them (my dad always had Scanias too for a long time, but his were always customised differently, I don't think he ever fitted the fake wood dashes and leather seat covers to an interior), the huge transmission tunnel reminds me of the massive engine hump Scannies always had, and the wood and leather remind me of the sort of thing drivers used to fit in their cabins to make the vinyl seats and black plastic a bit more bearable long distance. Thing is, that was alright in old Scannies where you didn't expect a fantastic interior, and anyway they had the space inside to pull that sort of massive tunnel between the seats, the interior of the LM002 just looks to me like a cramped, uncomfortable, overwarm, tacky place to be, particulalry if you are a sheik or sultan looking for a comfortable way to drive across the desert, in which case you'd probably expect more, a Range Rover would be much better in that respect at a fraction of the price. Not sure exactly what it is that I can't forgive about the LM002 though, there's just something deeply wrong about it, which is odd because there are other expensive motors that I can see something good about, even ones I consider a waste of time and money, but the LM is just vulgar I think.

The LM may be ugly, but it's definately the Carlin of 4x4s

Brilliant, nothing like a set of retro sidies with loads of hair to match. ;D Go on Samyboy, get yourself a retro mullet to match your motor, I've had loads of hair and sidies since I was about 16 myself, although that may be because as a teenager I slightly wanted to look like Che Guevara and by 16 had just got the sidies and tasche to match the loads of hair. ;D ;D These days I just prefer the look of it plus can't be ar*ed shaving or going to the barbers. ;D
