Miniland Cars: UK

DeLorean DMC12

Built in 2008
Photos were taken at the "Street" car show in Hannover

The members of the german De Lorean Fan club confirmed that my model came close to the original:-\)
One of the very rare series vehicle with wing doors: the De Lorean DMC12. It was the only car from the De Lorean Motor Company. Sadly the car was not very succesful because of quality problems and a too small engine.
The body of this model is build completely with pearl light gray bricks. This is a challenge for itself, because there were no headlight bricks, or slopes available - just standard basics. But it's the best color for a car with a stainless steel surface.

Rolls Royce "FAB1"

Built in 2014
Photos are taken at the royal gardens of Herrenhausen

See all pink details here!

Jaguar E-Type convertible

Built in 2007
Some photos are taken at the LEGOLAND Windsor

This Jaguar E-Type builded itself nearly alone. Starting with the round bricks for the mudgards, the rest of the car was comparatively easy to build.
In comparison to the London Taxi the Jaguar seems to be to small, but this is correct. Old time sports cars are mostly not very huge.
I've tried to build the motorhood openable, but the construction was too unstable, because nearly the hole front swings up.

Jaguar E-Type hearse "Harold & Maude"

Built in 2007

Well, if you want to sing out, sing out. And if you want to be free, be free. 'Cause there's a million things to be... \(Lyrics by Cat Stevens\)
Build after the 1971's movie Harold and Maude. The only Sports car in history I know, which was changed into a hearse.
Don't worry, no LEGO was harmed during this photo session. Sadly one of the real Movie cars was really thrown down the cliff :(

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.

"Lola" inspired racecar

Built in 2007

The original model is displayed in the LEGO idea house located in Billund. It's built by Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen back in the 60's and was basically inspired by the british sportscar manufacturer Lola.

This is my interpretation of this nice model. The first part to be changed was the rims. I've gave the car some wheels which are fitting better to a racing car. To let the car look more modern, I've made the surface nearly studless.
To let the car fit better to my existing ones, I've slightly shrinked the overall dimensions. It's a really awesome car.
