Did you write this from your foxhole ? I'm still planning one last change right now.....I'll keep the battle posted later.

I forgive you 'rriggs', it might be a little boring on the outside but it was the realism I was aiming for.....plus an original design using technic and tiles I really wanted to try. Thanks for the kind words too 'LegoDad' and thanks also for the reminder about the Dodge dealer building.....oop's tied up in the service station contest.

Nice VW there my fellow combatant......see your final result, not bad at all. Brick On Battle On 'SalvoBrick' !

I checked out some Elf and Total images......why not do an Elf or Total, in Australia we use to have Total service stations.....er, 50 years ago....they got brought out by AMPOL which in turn were brought out by Caltex.....which in Oz is half Australian and half USA owned. And now by the looks of it I better either today or tomorrow post as a new topic my entry since 'SalvoBrick' has done his. It actually would be interesting to see designs that come from each of our countries......we can all learn something.....a bricked version of Discovery Channel. Edit - Diesel in Oz is used mainly for trucks, four wheel drives, etc., there are a handful of diesel cars...though we have a lot of converted LPG vehicles on the road since LPG is a little cheaper to buy. Here is Oz we have Shell aligned with Coles (Wesfarmers), Caltex aligned with Woolworths, BP, Mobil rebranded either Mogas, 7-11 or On The Run (some On The Run's are actually BP). Then we have a handful of independent chains to fill any gaps in the market place.

AWESOME w-i-p 'Bricksan', what's next in your city layout ? Brick On !

I received a reply from Canada...... CO-OP CRS 7:33am Mar 13 This is incredible! Thank you for sharing this with us. Brick On everyone !

'Zed_43' is in France so no Coles supermarkets there......I actually look forward to seeing a French petrol station design.

I just had Coles Express confirm that a Lego promo starts next Monday, but that's all they can say right now.

Has anyone heard about why Lego has shelved the Green Day project ?

The idea is not size but impression of something that could exist in the real world. I wonder where are the battle master is eh ?

Perfect super car for Lego city......Brick On Drive On 'lluisgib' !

There is no limit to how many of these Lego could produce as it's for a city.....streets can be as long or short as the builder likes. Maybe there could be a poll on this topic ?

I forgot perhaps a supermarket as well in the mix ? Or dare I say another cycle shop ?

Wow, no posts in this for almost a day.....have I shot down my fellow combatants ?

Now that's impressive......your latest design is very original....I wonder if anyone will try and brick build it ? Brick On LDD On 'Freddie' !

Maybe another town house with a coffee shop or post office or bank.....I'm just thinking how Lego design stuff......be our luck it would be a pizza bar in lime green and black ?

BigW has TMNT, SW and Friend's advertised......except they are just their normal shelf prices.

Oh, dear.....sounds like a job for LDD ! Now do we have to really open a fresh topic for final pictures 'LCM' ?

Nice entry 'SalvoBrick', see I haven't finished mine yet so I also haven't fired my final shot in this battle !

Nice, very nice......though the tyres are a little on the thin side ? Brick On Truck On 'Steebles1908' !

At 15 supports now and I have sent images to CO-OP themselves in Canada via good old Facebook. Brick On everyone !

A reference picture of a real gas station might help clear things up.....that's if it's being modelled on or inspired by is real ?

I think he is building a fancy gas station similar to a Philips 76. Gee, hopefully tomorrow I get to finish the 32x32 layout - shoot it, post it and then transfer it to my New Mannum layout.

Nice one 'SalvoBrick', so many Shell, so many Octan.......glad I'm working on a Caltex !

Nice work there 'Cunctator', interesting R&D lab.....white coats and big vice.....something funny is going on there ? Delightful clothing shop......retro punk fashions ? Brick On ' Cunctator' !
