Like the exterior; disappointed with the interior
" Just completed the Urus ST-X build. I like the exterior, but I'm disappointed with the cab. If one of the reasons to go with a wider body for the Speed Champions series was to add more detail, Lego hit the mark on the exterior (minus the fender/wheel space) but failed on the interior. 20% more build, which is great, but 20% less room for passengers and the driver? The Urus is supposed to be Lamborghini's response to the SUV market - a Lambo that seats 4. This Lego Urus cab is more akin to a tandem fast-jet cockpit. You'll only get one Lego person in the back, and good luck getting anyone in the front. Okay so maybe you're a less play and more display builder. Well I have 3 words: offset steering wheel. It's going to drive you madd that the design team couldn't align the steering wheel in the Urus with the seat area. Even with 20% more build this was a huge design flaw in my opinion. The space among the centre console, steering wheel, and driver's seating area looks amateur (Lego should have added a dash board sticker too). I actually lost sleep over a Lego build because I was trying to figure out how to do a mod to at least get a driver in the seat. My quick and dirty solution was to use a 1x1 brick in step 65 instead of a 1x2 brick. It's a bit delicate and you'll need to seat the driver before completing step 69, but it works... sort of: the driver is still offset to the steering wheel but at least their arm is not sticking up above the window.
I'll be starting the Huracan build soon. I've perused through the instructions and it appears as though the brick layout is much better (a wider prefab chassis similar to the narrow version SC builds) with room for both passenger and driver, and the steering wheel looks like it will align with the seat area.
