the bbc‘s tim allman explains. this is a car show, this is a car.this car is not quite what it seems. it may appear to be a bugatti, the high—powered favourite of petrolheads the world over, but it's actually an exact replica made out of little plastic bricks. more than one million pieces of lego technic put together to achieve this model. it's 1.5 tonnes, so 1,500kg of lego plastic put together. assembled the same way as we would do a lego model, a traditional lego model. but this isn't any old replica, it's a fully—functional working automobile. the engineers at lego technic wanted to create a plastic card you can actually drive. not very fast, mind you. with a top speed of 30kph, it's not quite as quick as the original, which can hit 400kph. i think everything was a challenge, but mainly the development of the motor, because it's lego motors, plastic motors and electrics. so hard to drive 1,500 kilograms. it was a challenge. no plans for mass production, as chances are, the lego version would melt. tim allman, bbc news. breakfast is coming up at
