LONDON -- The ultimate cruising wagon for Lego enthusiasts was unveiled at the Motorhome and Caravan Show in Birmingham this week: a record-breaking caravan constructed of the iconic plastic bricks.

The Lego caravan stands 2.2 metres tall and 3.6 metres long, according to the mobile home enthusiasts at Caravan Times, and took a team of 12 over 1,000 hours to construct.

All in all there are 215,158 bricks involved and it was certified by Guinness World Records as the largest lego caravan on the planet.

The final bricks were laid by motorcycle racer (and I'm A Celebrity champ) Carl Fogarty and TV presenter Matt Baker.

The caravan features a full interior with electric lights, a sink with running water, a bed and seating. There are Lego chess pieces, Lego toothbrushes, a Lego frying pan and Lego eggs. Take a moment to bask in its splendour.
