Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Lamborghini LM002 is an SUV that was built by the Lamborghini automobile company between 1986 and 1993. It was unofficially known as the Rambo Lambo. 301 LM002s were built, including 60 LM/American special equipment vehicles. The LM002 was an unusual departure for Lamborghini who, at the time, was primarily known for high-performance grand tourers and sports cars. Lamborghini built its first military vehicle, a prototype vehicle codenamed the "Cheetah", in 1977. Lamborghini had designed the vehicle with hopes of selling it to the US military. The original Cheetah prototype had a rear-mounted Chrysler V8 engine. The prototype was destroyed during testing by the US military. This led Lamborghini to develop the LM001, which was very similar to the Cheetah, but had an AMC V8 engine. It was finally determined that the engine being mounted in the rear caused too many unfavorable handling characteristics in an offroad vehicle, and the LMA002 was built with an entirely new chassis, moving the engine (now the V12 out of the Countach) to the front.
