I like it! And to save money for the consumer its available in kit firm from your local toy shop ages 3 and over

Like it. I needed cheering up after driving a dodgy conv today.

Excellent, judging by the pictures, looks like they've finally started improving the 'fit and finish' quality control at Cowley.....

I hear that they`ve had to recall some of the Roof Bricks already as they were`nt sticking properly

Damo · Jul 5th, 2004, 09:32 AM

Its disgraceful, especially the way Lego is treating us BMW MINI owners. Being a Classic BMW MINI owner, I Don't like it, and because the way Lego has treated us BMW MINI customers, re parts, I'll give all the people who get it the finger

....

....oops sorry jumped into the future there

I have started to work on a precisely scaled LEGO MINI model using the "technic" parts like whishbones, wheel mountings and tires. I know I have enough parts to finish a 1:9 scale model, but the whole thing got so damn complicated that I capitulated for instance.

Concerning the Pug advert, that really drives me crazy. To blame every car on the planet a toy car an then presenting a car with almost 50% of the car´s body outside the axles. That´s how children draw cars! I wonder if they are going to present a V12 engine for the 407 or why they have fitted that front overhang anyway...

Pug advert: "Playtime is Over" roughly translated "This car is dulll and boring". Or at least, that's what it says to me?

Its actually a dig at the Renault Laguna's advert of "Serious Playtime", Peaugeot not exactly being best of friends with Renault
