Postbil - Renault Kangoo

[Dennimator]

Som vanligt - kopierat/klistrat in från Eurobricks. 

We in Sweden are special. So special, we get our own postal vans. And they are crap. Anyway, more about that later on... :blush:
Now to my MOC. I wanted to build some 5-wide postal vehicle MOCs for BrickVille, as my minifigs complained that they never could get the sets they ordered through SaH. (I answered them: Yeah, that´s bloody right you don´t. You are using my computer, my bank account, and most important of all, my money. :hmpf_bad: But that´s another story..) Aaaanyway, I decided to build an "army" of these (4+). I built one with the parts I had and planned to get the pieces for the rest of them through BL, but I decided to post it here first for feedback and improvement ideas.
Now for the pics:








I know the back lights is about 1 cheese slope too high, but if I cut down on 1 cheese slope, it wouldn´t get the right shape. :sceptic:
And yes, I will put a window here. I just don´t have the pieces, I´ll order them at the same time as the other 3(+) vans.

The van also features a working sliding door...




...And working rear doors:


Overview with the roof removed, with all the doors opened...



...And closed:


The Renault Kangoo have this "rounded" bottom (see the reference pics in the bottom of the post). To achieve this on my model I used some jumper plates and SNOT ( :grin: ):



And a last overview:




I know the wheels looks a little too small for it. :sceptic: I would use these, if they were available in light bley or chrome silver:



Now for the reference pics:







Unfortunately, the Renault Kangoo is misfortunate as a postal van (suck on that, BrickVille Citizens :devil:  :tongue: ), so I bet mine will look like this in a couple of days:

Clicky
I got all those on the 1st page when searching google for "Svensk postbil" (Swedish postal car/van)... :cry_sad:

Anyway.. Comments and constructive criticism warmly welcome. :cry_happy:

Meget flot
God teknik og en super flot gengivelse af den virkelige model.

Hur får du cheese bitarna i bakljusen att hänga ihop
Är dem bara staplade på varandra, eller ?
Vore juste med en förklaring.

Tack KimT!

Ja, när dörrarna är stängda håller friktionen ihop dom (förutom dom på toppen). Men eftersom de rasade ihop varenda gång man öppnade dörrarna, fuskade jag lite med lite häftmassa. De håller bättre då. Och när det gäller Cheese slopes är friktionen din bästa vän.

Intressant, svårt att få till rundad form så där. :-O

Skjutdörren öppnas dock åt fel håll, fast det kanske var av nöden?

Tack.
Ja, jag kunde tyvärr inte bygga konstruktionen åt andra hållet pga hinge-bitarna som håller upp "dörren"och vindrutan.
