James May and his full-size Lego house nobody wants
It could be the biggest bargain on the property market: a two-storey house that’s being given away for nothing.
The only drawback is that this des res is made entirely out of Lego – and you’ll have to find somewhere to put it.
Top Gear presenter James May has just built the world’s first full-size Lego house – including a working toilet, hot shower and a very uncomfortable bed – using 3.3million plastic bricks.

So anyone want a leaky roof?

or just google it.

That's pretty cool! 3.3 Million Lego Bricks!?

Pity he's being forced to chop it up instead of being able to give it to charity or something.

They should've just moved it to the Top Gear grounds, then they could drive something through it or actually use it.

Sad to see it go to waste.

LOL...and to think that my father, when we immigrated to Canada from Denmark in 1958, had the opportunity of bringing Lego to Canada. He turned the offer down and instead decided on another company (a story perhaps for another day). I could have been part of an extremely wealthy family

Gee. I played sooo much of lego when I was a kid. I miss it now. This is like my childhood dream come true (which is being destroyed?)
