Hi bud sorry not replied as not been near lego in an age! Mainly becaise of summer and being able to mess on other tbings with the clomate helping me. Another reason is the last build I took on was a formula 2 and I have not enjoyed it at all! The ddsign was pore and just horrible to put together... but I finished it today.

Not touched the Beetle again yet either, have pics somewhere of how I cambered it.

As I seem to have a Technic building obsession, I thought I would post up the models I've built so far.
I also have the orange Porsche and black Bugatti still to build

That's a great looking kit. I have just been on the lepin website, didn't realise they did so much!

Have you finished it yet?

I didn't do any corrections, just built it as instructions.
Bugatti was quite good to build, all bags numbered, parts fitted great, even had some spare pieces

LP1 complete, only thing changed so far were the sponsored white written side panels as didn’t like the white.

Think I don’t like and will change

bonnet
front roof line
rear wheel spacing
exhaust at rear not there on final model

but other than that its a cracking model and really enjoed building it umlike the Bugatti model.

Next I want to take on the DBR9 Aston model which takes up two 911GT3RS’s and a few extra parts .

Looks good. I can see what you mean about rear wheels. The chap I know with a real P1 sold it as he was paranoid the batteries would go flat and that is Ł250k to repair.

Its been a little while since I completed any technic

But I'm off my feet again atm due to complications with my back so....

Ive decided I needed a green Porsche 911 GT3 to add to my collection lol..

Also pursched the 911 RST from Argos this week only because they were half price at 65 quid

I don't like the RSR 911 model design one bit but for the price I decided I'd buy it and modify it heavily and see how I can make it better for my preference

Well see lol

I also pursched the Ken Block Hoonicorn but got pissed about by the seller on Ali so waiting on a refund then try again with another seller.

Its a shame about the Hoonicorn one. Was it a low volume seller? I have been looking to order one and not seen any complaints yet about slow delivers.

I like the hoonicorn just a shame i'm not a fan of ken block. Still good though.

The porsche's have always been of interest to me, I am unsure which I like more, probably the white one. Reminds me a bit of some I was messing around with on gta5 for that style.

Whats the going rate for one of these now since aliexpress stopped selling a lot of the stuff. I need to finish off my falcon still, I just stopped doing it after the fact there was only 3 color bricks hurt my eyes

You must be looking at the wrong Aliexpress, its all still there. The Star Wars are hard to get but still listed. Lego have gone all out on sending out copy-write infringement letters. The mini figs will be the hard ones to find if Lego get there way as its a trade mark by an EU court ruling.

I bought myself a new model for christmas.
Surprised with the size it actually was.
Really good straightforward build, also there was 2 sets of green parts (light and dark) so you could chose which ones to use, so loads of bricks spare.
Ive put the mustang next to it to compare sizes
