The car is worth 4k on a good day, if the chains start to make any noise it will be going to get traded.

Someone in the local Lego group posted this Ebay listing for a life sized Gandalf model:

Was just about to say forget about Gandalf, I'll have the jet engines in his truck, when I saw his car :)

Saw this the other day. A wrap I guess of some textured matt crap that looks like it should be on a BBQ. And these wheels... ImageImageImage

One of these enormous Great Wall utes came blasting past me this morning - handy that it has a gaping arsehole badge on the back...

The fit and finish looks appalling. Like some cheap sheet metal tacked together. It'll never pass euro rules like that. Too many sharp corners.

They're having huge problems with the windscreen too. The idea of a single windscreen wiper doesn't work very well because in anything other than a drizzle you can't sweep the large area fast enough with only one long relatively heavy blade.
