A Lego Locost?
Take a look at a lego (lego not Luego! ) locost here
It's amazing the amount of detail this guy has gone into - he even has a working engine/transmission/diff - along with double wishbone
suspension up front, de dion rear, steering column and rack.... basically a fully working 7 made out of lego!!
For me though, the best part is the fully operational 4-speed gearbox
As far as I can see, he hasn't made up any parts of his own either - respect.

Now that is impressive!
I wonder whether he'll be tackling a full size 'kit' next?

Check out the rest of his lego stuff here. I think the 7 is by far the best
model though.

Doesn't anyone think its slightly sad a grown man playing with lego? Looks ok though!
He probably needs to sell his idea to Lego - they must be looking for new ideas by now! At least he'd have a reason...
