“Since the MINI has quite a few great details, building it is never boring. After every step it's getting better and better. When you have finished the model, you really get that WOW! feeling. Choosing dark green for the bodywork gives this model the characteristic British... More Racing Green look.”

“Well, this set falls under the AFOL-friendly Creator Expert line and I'm yet to be disappointed by one of those. No exception here: the build is intricate and enlightening, even including a useful technique I've never seen before. It makes a wonderful display model but is... More worth breaking up into your parts collection as it has an excellent inventory, unless you don't use Earth Green. It has loads of new parts and ones only appearing in one other set... so many in fact that there are many more great parts in this set I haven't had room to mention.”

“The Mini Cooper from the Lego Creator series is another absolute top model. This legendary Mini Cooper is built from over 1000 individual parts and is a real eye-catcher! The colour combination is also particularly beautiful: the classic dark green with the white racing... More stripes. In addition, loving details such as the picnic basket, the wine bottle and the picnic blanket were added. Even the construction is a lot of fun and one can hardly wait for the completion. This model should not be missing from any collection, which is another reason why it deserves the highest rating of six stars.”
