Just an update for you, we are now over 3/4 of the way there with over 7500 supporters which is great! We need you to encourage your family members and friends to register (an update has just been done which they say makes supporting us easier) and help us get to the 10000 Lego review stage to get this produced :)

Our next exhibiting shows are Brick Lego Show in Birmingham in 2 weeks and Classic Car Show in Birmingham middle of November so might see you there if you are attending! ;) here is the link in case you need it!

We are almost at 8000 supporters so support is still growing. Our next show is the Classic Car Show At the NEC from the 11th November so come and see us if you are going. If you haven't registered support yet please do, we would really appreciate it!

Here is our finished attempt at a miniature Tower Bridge from the Land Rover launch night that we were privileged to be invited to! Hope people at the show next weekend like it and it encourages them to support us. If you zoom in you can see Bear Grylls where he landed at the top! Heading for 8500 supporters now so getting close. Here is the link in case you should need it

just voted for you - best of luck:)

i used to have lego - it was my favorite toy, i built a land rover too but it wasn't as good as that (wish we had camera phones back then i'd have took a pic)

why don't you make a matching 5 door 109 to go with it? might get you the publicity to get to the 10k votes

look forward to it:)
also if i was being picky with the 109 rear overhang you have gone 2 bricks - have you tried to do it 3 bricks long? i would think that would look more in proportion to the full size one?

how much in bricks does it cost you to make one of these?

Hi, the original one we did was actually 3 bricks but after going to shows and posting on forums we were told it was too long which is how we came to change it to two :)

It has cost us upwards of £200-£300 to build each one depending on the brick colour as some are more expensive than others. If Lego produced it, it would be somewhere in line with the campervan, mini etc so much cheaper! :)

We will have to leave it as it is now as was quite a bit of work to change it and get everything else around it to fit correctly. Am sure Lego would change it if they decided to proceed and they thought it needed altering :)
 
Yes we have made it to review stage! It's going to be a few months wait now before we find out whether the Lego Land Rover will be produced.

We wanted to say a big thank you for your support/feedback/encouragement, it has really meant a lot. Fingers crossed now we can get approved for sale in the Lego Shop!
