well the UniMog build is going well although I have to say it is not my favourite build (that would still have to be 8421 or 8547), as someone mentioned earlier - there are a lot of custom parts on this model!

Have finally finished the Unimog - I really like it although I wish the stabilisers on the back we're powered.
Now to resist buying more.......

Here is my two Lego Technic Ferraris. 8647 Ferrari F1 and 8653 Enzo Ferrari, they are mounted on the walls in the staircase. Recently found the Enzo during a house move so cleaned it up and added it next to the F1.  Apologies about the rubbish photo

I had a load of technic as a kid, and amongst the models I was supposed to build, I liked to do random scratch builds too, one I can remember was a Lotus 7 / Morgan style car. It looks like it would be hard to do the same now...

There is an F1 on fleabay for £180.00 with an Enzo being offered for £140.00 without instructions (it has already been built) & another one being offered for £150.00!!!

Anyone had a go of this cad program? http://staff.polito.it/sergio.reano/ looks good, not had a chance to have a full go of it yet myself. Think it will take a lot of thinking to make something half decent on it.
