LEGO 6394 Parking & Service Center is a Town Shops and Services set released in 1988, containing 620 pieces and 6 minifigures. The multi-level build comprises a petrol station with two pumps, a repair garage with a tire rack, a car wash with spinning brushes, and a parking lift, plus three cars and a motorcycle. It features a functioning elevator for vehicle access and a modular structure that can split open for easier play and display. Several elements carry printed Shell logos, reflecting LEGO’s fuel-station branding of the era, and the set is also known as “Parking and Service Centre.”

A new, sealed Parking & Service Center is worth around $678 today. It has grown about 3.3% a year since retirement, and our forecast has it 4% higher a year from now. The average used price is $150 for those in good overall condition. The 6 included minifigs account for approximately 12% of the set's total value.

Parking & Service Center is a relatively rare set. We have not seen set 6394-1 for sale in secondary markets for over 6 months. Its market value is likely somewhat higher than our estimate. The last brand new Parking & Service Center was sold on eBay.

Insights

Released in 1988 and since retired, Parking & Service Center is a late-1980s Town flagship with a multi-level parking lift and service-station layout that draws nostalgia, and its scarce sealed supply and condition sensitivity of stickers and baseplates have supported collector demand while remake risk remains a modest concern.

“Released in The Netherlands in May of 1988, this was a flagship set of Town when it first came out. Fitting in with other shops and service sets like the more modest 6378 Service Station and the 6699 Bike Repair Shop it quickly became a centerpiece of citizen life in Lego... More Town. It stuck around for a while as the largest service set, while other service sets were phased out. Fitting in wonderfully with the designs of the era, the scale difference might be a bit of a problem when putting the model in a modern setup. On average we get a very decent 8/10.”

BrickEconomy Member Review

“The Metro Park and Service Tower is a nostalgic set featuring a car wash, repair area, and gas station, complete with charming printed details like Shell logos and functional elements such as a working elevator. It’s a solid example of classic 80s LEGO.”
