Holodoc: I think the car is in minifig scale now. Old cars are really small when they are compared to modern ones, and that is the reason to the five wide cab on a six wide frame.
;-)
I voted on the Smartcar, because that was something I really had like to have in my own town. But it was a hard choise, because so many of the cars are so cool.
;-)
I'm in.

The roadplates are simply the same as in the old road construction set with the brigde. But here they just use the straight ones. In the corner where the office is located, it's used the plates from the old street hockey set, though in a different colour scene.

Asuka: It's really not that huge at all, it's just a couple of buildings with a tracks running around it. But the whole idea behind this project was to see what I could do with my old bricks, and therefor I had to make som limmit on the town-area.
alex54: Yes, it's really a mess. Some times I use almost twice of the time I build, to find bricks to build with. :-P
