For custom sets from Kevin et al, it may be a good idea for reviewers to
include a link to a picture of the set?

SET DESCRIPTION

Great combination of red & black, reminds me of a real minivan with opening
rear door.

IMPRESSION

When I ordered this set I expected to add a simple minivan to my collection.
Well I was wrong, this isn't a simple minivan, its an awsome, well designed one.

My first impression was that the instructions are VERY well printed.  I was
amazed at the detail of the instructions.  Very clear lines between the
peices.  Even with the black parts.

After building I tried it out with minifigures, a minifigure with girls hair
(the one with the huge ponytail sticking up & out from the back), fits very
well, and doesn't even touch the roof.  The roof has 1x2 grill tiles, that
make it look like it has a roof rack.

Over all I think this set is great, even for younger children.  I really
liked the interior space.  For anyone with a liking for town this set is a
must, I certainly would buy it for anyone.  I've considered buying one for
my nephue for his birthday.
