DLuders Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 On his Flickr photostream, Latvian AFOL Rolic (Rolands Kirpis) posted 12 pictures of his Lego Jaguar XJ220 supercar. He wrote, "It's time to move back to smaller scale... and to supercars. As once I had an obsession with rare cars, I searched again for some rare beauty. And I succeeded. This is Jaguar XJ220. Accordin to wikipedia - only 281 of these where made during 1992 - 97. At the very beginning this beast was made with V12 engine at the rear. But as at the early ninties there were too strick emission regulations, the manufacturers replaced it by V6 and the car become a mid-engined beast. But despite that it still hold a speed record till the McLaren F1 was born. So behold of the British angry beauty - Jaguar XJ220." Quote
Milan Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Strange no one has commented this beauty. Car is awesome. Curves are very nice. So is the functionality. Maybe i am too attached to this car, since I have played a lot of Jaguar XJ220 Amiga game. Great! Quote

MarcusB Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Yet... 200plus views! It's is a awesome model! It is a nice model. There are just some building techniques that were used that I don't know about. It seems pieces are just catching a part of a stud to achieve their angles. The appearance looks fantastic, but also very fragile. Quote
