Everyone who likes cars knows the Ferrari F40. Everyone who likes cars probably loves the Ferrari F40. But only a very, very small percentage of those fans can actually afford a Ferrari F40, given they are now
£750,000 and upwards
But now Lego has come to the rescue! You can now own an F40 and build it yourself for £69.99. Alright, so it's still just a model but the challenge of assembling 1,158 parts must be equal to managing that famously spiky twin-turbo V8. Probably.
The Lego F40 is a 1:15 scale model measuring 27cm long, 14cm wide and 8cm high. Faithful to the original, the Lego kit features a functioning bonnet where the tyre sealant is stored, moving pop-up headlights and even the cabled door handles. Superb!
The Lego F40 is available to buy now on the Lego website and in Lego stores. Naturally we have one in to test, um, just how accurate the model is. Absolutely no enjoyment will be derived from the build. Coming to PHTV soon!
