"...we don't stop playing because we get old; we get old because we stop playing." Hummer, the world's most iconic boy's toy, has converted a new right-hand drive version of its H3 into the ultimate gadget for grownups - a life-sized remote controlled car that definitely won't be available in your local toyshop.
The hardy on/off road vehicle has been converted to make life a little less dull - those lucky enough to have a play, will experience the unrivalled agility and off-road capability of the Hummer H3 from the palm of their hand.
Engineer Dr James Brighton from Cranfield University transformed the Hummer H3 into a remote controlled vehicle to create the ultimate boy's toy.
He said: "Converting the Hummer H3 into the super-sized remote control car took a month to complete but we've had lots of fun in the process. The results are clear - all controllers will be amazed by the handling ability - the best any radio controlled vehicle has had to date. The vehicle is capable of climbing a 407mm vertical wall, traverse a 40 per cent side slope and operate in up to 610mm of water - imagine the fun."
Steve Catlin from Hummer added: "Hummer is like nothing else - as the ultimate workhorse it is built for action and can handle off-roading with ease but also has a unique, iconic style. What better way to show off the definitive big boy's toy than converting the Hummer H3 into a remote controlled car?"
