See more Lego cars

Firas Abu-Jaber makes cars out of Lego. OK, so it’s hardly a novel idea – who among us didn’t fashion some sort of rudimentary Volvo estate creation in our younger years? – but here’s the difference: Mr Abu-Jaber’s cars are truly awesome.

They’re all made from regular Lego blocks – none of yer cheating specialised sets here – and they’re so good that we’re genuinely considering inventing some sort of a human Lego-iser to shrink us down to tiny, daft-haired form so we can have a drive in them. Or ‘The Ecclestonator’, as it shall be called.

Our favourite? It has to be the Ford GT, though Knight Rider’s KITT is pushing it a close second. 

In the spirit of nostalgia, let’s throw this one out there: what was your finest automotive Lego creation? Anything better than TG telly’s Caterham?
