Building an Icon

Some cars are iconic as are some Lego Sets. This is a tale of building the Iconic Lego set of the the iconic car. That's right it's lego Set 10242 - the Mini Cooper

I'm sure you all know the car - icon of the 1960's, although this one is a replica of the Mark Vii which was built in real life in the 1990's (who knew they were still making them that late) The Mini basically changed the whole concept of compact cars. A then there is the Cooper S versions, the original original hot hatch - extra sporty, extra go-karty, extra awesome.
