[MOC] Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

[_TLG_]

Hello Lamborghini and Speed Champions fans,

The Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is a mid-engine sportscar produced by the Italian automotive manufacturer Lamborghini. In keeping with Lamborghini tradition, the Aventador is named after a Spanish fighting bull that fought in Zaragoza, Aragón, in 1993. The Aventador is the successor for the Murciélago and was made by hand in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. Building instructions are available on the following links:

It is a studless build in the new, 8 studs wide Speed Champions style. I wanted to create a clean model which is as accurate as possible in this small scale. I prefer the brick built solutions to keep the flexibility of the used parts in further builds, and therefore only two types of stickers are used: simple black ones to cover the visible parts of the headlights in the front air intakes, and the Lamborghini logo.

My intent was to keep the width-length-height ratio of the real car and this size makes it possible. The model contains lots of details: for example the emblematic headlights, the front and side air intakes, the side view mirrors and rear details with the wide exhaust etc... Maybe the most challenging one was the hood tilt and some half stud offsets in the inside structure. I tried to fill every unnecessary gaps and therefore some tricky build techniques are used.

The two trans-clear headlight parts "Slope, Inverted 45 2 x 1" (part 3665) are very rare, it never released in a set, but is available on Bricklink in some webshops. Of course they can be replaced for example by white, black, light bluish gray or dark bluish gray versions. The parts 86996 and 42446 are also rare, but the picture 7 shows an alternate side view mirror solution.

It is a very low build, and can roll well only on flat surfaces. It is more of a display model then a toy for small children.

The model has space for two minifigures: one with small hair or helmet in the driver's seat and one either without hair or withour leg.

Thanks for visiting,

Nice design. The low floor height is easy to tell from the pictures. Smooth roads only, like the real car.

Thanks a lot! Yes, it is visible, I had to build this way to provide enough room for a minifigure driver :)

There is a GT1 contest on Instagram, so I made a GT1 version of this car too! These are just renderings, but maybe I will build it later :)
