This 1989 Lamborghini LM002 is said to be all-original, well-kept, and in perfect working order. The 18,708 kilometers showing on its odometer translate to 11,625 and are said to be accurate, and while the seller quotes only 301 ever made other sources estimate 330-ish were built between 1986 and 1993. This one looks as nice as promised by its low usage, itself probably a result of the truck’s 5 MPG thirst. Find it here at The Gallery Brummen in Brummen, Netherlands for 132,950 euros (~$181,051 today).

​Born of a failed off road prototype intended for sale to the American military, Lambo instead marketed the finished, V12 powered behemoths primarily to the Middle East where oil was cheap, off-road capability was important and the rich were plentiful. Apart from some wear visible on the rear luggage compartment lid, this interestingly colored example shows very nicely with clean paint, straight panels, and excellent trim. 325/65/17 tires might look cartoonish on any other SUV, but somehow manage to fit right in with the rest of the LM’s angular, oversized personality.

​White leather upholstery isn’t subtle, but in the context of a hand-built, Countach powered, three ton four seater what is? Seats, side panels, and other hide-swathed areas look barely used, as does carpet, plastic, veneer, and the oddly cohesive navy blue headliner. Switchgear placement takes the word “haphazard” to a new level, while instrumentation has an appropriately mil-spec vibe thanks to large, unadorned markings. Interestingly, the tach is redlined at 6,500 RPM, though the same motor (reportedly) as installed in the LP5000 QV was given an extra thousand revs to play with.

​Speaking of all alloy, quad cam, 48 valve, 5.2 liter V12s, the one fitted beneath this truck’s appealingly asymmetric hood looks virtually factory fresh and runs an interesting triple belt pulley arrangement as well as a very different intake system compared to the QV Countach—perhaps these provide a hint as to the lower rev limit in this application. Factory quoted numbers included 450 HP and 369 lb. ft. of torque—not terribly impressive figures when accounting for the considerable heft of the rolling stock and body they’re responsible for motivating, but quantifying an LM002’s value with practicalities is a losing game. We hear they sound incredible.

​With 95 octane prices approaching $10 per gallon in Western Europe, we don’t foresee it being driven much if sold close to home. We think it’d make much better sense to import to the US and enjoy our relatively cheap, if less potent gas—unfortunately even in this scenario our finances still don’t quite add up.
