If you’re like us and the odds of you ever owning a McLaren Elva hinge on how lucky you are with your Lotto ticket, then this new kit from Lego may just be the perfect compromise.
The McLaren Elva is the latest addition to the McLaren hypercar stable, and with it now being said that just 149 examples of the topless hypercar will be built, this latest addition to the Lego Speed Champions line-up may be the closest young (and old) McLaren fans ever get to seeing one.
The 263-piece kit stays accurate to the real world windowless Elva - although customers of the real thing can now option a windscreen – and features a minifigure inspired by McLaren Automotive’s Principal Development Engineer for Ultimate Series, Rachel Brown.
“I hope that it inspires other young people to follow their passions and pursue careers in the automotive or design and engineering industries. There are so many incredible opportunities,” said Brown.
The Speed Champions series from Lego has seen a number of high-end supercars fall into the lap of car fans, including the Ferrari F8 Tributo and Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 Speed Champions kits.
The new Elva announcement also adds to the list of McLarens diluted down into Lego kits over the years, including the Lego Technic Senna GTR which is still available.
The new Elva kit was released to the world on June 1, and we expect it to be available locally through all common toy retailers soon for around AU$25.
