First off, there's only 1 LM600 road car in existence. It was built 
to satisfy the FIA that the LM600 race car was a bona-fide GT and not 
a one-off race special. Factory testers reported, even undeveloped 
(all the return edges on the car were razor sharp!), that it'd exceed 
170MPH and talked of a "developing it properly if someone comes along 
with £100,000". The car was, to my knowledge, last seen with Eurotech 
(Cor Euser's outfit) in Holland. There are some pictures of it 
somewhere on my website, with Dutch trade plates over its English 
plates.

Secondly, the pre-Mantula coupe is often described as having a high-
nose (there being no front spoiler), but looking at Jeff's photos his 
car does look unusually high. I'd expect this to be solved by 
lowering the setting of the spring seat on the shocks. However, it's 
worth considering WHY this has happened. It could be a case of too 
long springs, but equally (or maybe more) likely it's due to the car 
dragging its sump on a lower setting (My sump's been welded 3 times 
now!). So (daft as it may sound), it may well be worth raising the 
rear suspension (perhaps not to match, but 50% down on the front, 50% 
up on the front sort of thing), unless you live in area with pool 
table smooth roads :^)

Cheers,
