        LEGO Town Quiz - Clarification —Sanjay D'Souza
     I'll attempt to clarify a couple of the questions. 1) Which was the Widest town vehicle produced? - This set was released as a part of the TOWN range between 1978 - 1999. Therefore it IS minifig scale. 2) Apart from the color schemes what else is (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.town)
    
         Re: LEGO Town Quiz - Clarification —Jeff Christner
     (...) I'm not going to take a guess on the other questions, they aren't in my LEGO field of study. :-) I think that if you mean wheeled vehicle, I'd say that the Launch Response Unit is perhaps the widest one at just over 6 studs.

         Re: LEGO Town Quiz - Clarification —Sanjay D'Souza
     You have to make things difficult for me don't you Selçuk ;-) This particular vehicle is a land vehicle (ie drives on LEGO roadplates) , comes from the LEGO Town range, not extreme team and is more than 6 studs wide. In fact it shouldn't be on LEGO (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.town)
