The Lego Car Blog Elves continue their never-ending* search for the web’s best Lego vehicles, and today it was Brickshelf‘s turn to yield a model worth publicising.
This marvellous Technic Land Rover Series 1 is the work of Tamas Juhasz aka mbmc137, who has recreated the world-famous 4×4 from a mix of LEGO plates and Technic beams.
Under the lightweight bodywork is a LEGO RC Buggy Motor and a 4-speed gearbox of Tamas’ own design, giving his Land Rover some pretty decent off-road abilities. See the Series 1 in action on YouTube, and check out the full Brickshelf gallery via the link above.

Excellent model, shame about the noisy motor/gears though (in the vid). He could do with some grease on the transmission 🙂
Part of the joys of plastic mud4fun!
Bet yours sounds a fair bit smoother ; )

LOL, yes the 1:1 trucks sound a lot better 🙂
To be fair, I built an R/C rock crawler a few years ago and that has a cordless drill motor and 70:1 reduction gearing and it too sounds similar to the lego land rover in that vid.
