Goodyear made the IAA Commercial Vehicle Show in Hannover last week seem like child’s play by building a full-scale futuristic truck from Lego.
A total of 410 hours were spent planning and building the 250,000 brick Lego truck, which features Goodyear Marathon LHSII+ tyres.
The monster model weighs around 740 kilogrammes, and at 2.5 metres wide, 3.5 metres high and 2.5 metres long, is one of the biggest Lego constructions in the world.
But it wasn’t all play and no work for Goodyear, who built the truck to raise awareness of DocStop, an organisation that aims to provide professional drivers in Europe with quick and easy access to a doctor while they are on the road.
And the truck wasn’t built just for the show. You can get your hands on it! From 19 to 29 October, it will be auctioned on eBay, with all the proceeds being donated to DocStop.
Where you would put a lifesize Lego truck is another question... but CM is sure you won’t need to amend your O-licence for it
