Miniland Cars: Lotus


Lotus Esprit S1

Built in 2007

My name is Bond, James Bond. And this is one of Q's greatest work: the Lotus Esprit S1 which doesn't necessarily need roads.
To take photos outside is always a good idea, but this was the first time that I've placed one of my models in the water.
As you can see, there are several strange live forms under water.

    

Lotus Europa

Built in 2010
Photos taken at Legoland Windsor, Miniland Great Britain

Obviously this one has some temperature problems. Typical for mid-rear-engine cars. Hopefully the two girls will get some help, soon. I love the idea of using ice scoops as smoke. I've seen that on several other fan models.
The color is named dark-purple. It's the same color, Harry Potters Knight Bus (4755) is made of. Lego had some problems with wide varieties within the bricks, so they decided not to make any further sets with dark-purple as main color. How sad, it's such a nice color, isnt't it?
The photos have been made, during the Legoland in Windsor was closed for public. The London bridge is seriously one of the best models in the miniland.
