With almost dangerous levels of performance, Caterham’s Seven 620R happens to be the only one it doesn’t let punters build themselves.
They can, however, turn to Lego, as it’s immortalised the fire-breathing 620R into a brick kit due out next month.
It isn’t as nerdy as the 2704 piece Porsche GT3 RS technic set, but with 770-pieces involved, the Lego 620R’s assembly knocks up the car to impressive detail.
Inside, too, you’ll find a gear stick, steering wheel, and seats like the real one’s. The copy-act continues under the bonnet, where the 620R’s crescent intake manifold and slinky intake hose feature.
If this all sounds like your bag, you can thank Carl Greatrix for the honour. An avid Lego and Caterham fan, he submitted his own Caterham Seven to Lego’s Ideas community, a fan-based breeding ground Lego keep an eye on for potential new designs, where it racked up the required 10,000-likes-for-official-review quite quickly.
What’s the price? Lego’s said it’ll cost US$79.99 (AU$104) when it hits stores this October.
