Oh dear, the wheels look shite as seems to be the case quite often with Lego models

Just to clarify in case people forgot, I'm 47yrs old.
Land Rover Defender model just arrived today. As is obvious from the complexity, I've had to abandon the pretence to my wife that our 5 year old is going to do any of this (or that I'll let him play with it once its done given he is a more productive dismantler than assembler)
NFI when I'm going to get the time to do this given I managed Christmas Day and Boxing Day off work and that was it...
Re: Lego
The Defender is possibly a bit much for a 5yo to manage alone yeah, but no harm in including them in the process if you can. I did a book//bag each night I think, to spread the "fun" out a little. I bought the Lambo over Xmas, so now I feel obliged to wait for the Bugatti to go on sale again so I can get that. Getting expensive this Lego malarky
Also, waiting on the Creator Expert Police Station (and freebie classic car) and the Bonsai tree, Fiat500 to arrive..
Lockdown has a lot to answer for.

Re: Lego
Finished the defender - was quite hard work to be honest! I timed the fourth stage out of interest and it came to 2.5 hours so pretty much a ten hour set in total!
Think I may take a break from anything Lego related for err about a minimum of 6 months maybe

The mini is brilliant, the Dakar I could take or leave but is still a decent thing. I never bothered with rest of the set, it’s still in its bags
Edit to add- if you’re new to speed champions and you’re only experience is the Quattro don’t expect these to be the same scale, the Quattro is a step bigger and better proportioned
