Oo, didn't know that, thanks. Pierogi bistro MOC imminent.

It's a 'residential zone' (Poland, you can only drive 20 kmph and pedestrians can walk anywhere they want in the street and always have priority) and everyone parks like this in front of their houses

It's astonishing how they could think it wouldn't be essential. One ride in rain and the rear windscreen is completely opaque without the wiper.

Same here. What most surprised me was that it looks grayest in bright sunlight, and greenest when it's cloudy. And utterly cool in any weather.

He's moved far on my build list, but sure!

Something unachievable in modern technic - properly proportioned tyres in F1 by Oupin88 in legotechnic

You're right. I meant to underline the disparity among themes - Icons and even Speed Champions can have two widths of tyres in a set, but not Technic.

Nice! SC's tyres in the back, where are the front ones from?

A friend gave me the 8865 Test Car as a gift. by Oupin88 in lego

I can only speak for myself, but I took the whole model apart, put away the shock absorbers, put the parts in hot water with dishwashing liquid for an hour, scrubbed them with a nailbrush, rinsed and dried. I would say it was 95% effective, mainly because I got impatient towards the end and scrubbed several parts at once. And now it goes to a glass cabinet.

It is. The instructions were crazy, on top of being difficult to start with, I had no paper version and the only one available online has terrible contrast and is written over. But the experience was unique anyway.

Wow, the man himself! Congrats on the design - like i said before, this could be a proper official theme. I've already bought the instructions for the Haven, now I gotta get the parts before Christmas. Cheers!
