Polybag tribute to the windscreen-less McLaren Elva — 149 cars, no roof, no windows.

Set #30343 2021 86 pieces 8-stud Retired

The Elva is a member of McLaren’s Ultimate Series — its rarefied, near-coachbuilt tier — and it goes one step beyond the Speedtail by deleting the windscreen, side glass and roof entirely. Power comes from McLaren’s 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 making 815 hp; air management at speed is handled by an Active Air Management System that routes airflow over the cockpit. This polybag is the entry-level LEGO® representation.

OPEN-COCKPIT HYPERCAR

McLaren Elva

No roof, no windows

McLaren named the Elva after Bruce McLaren’s 1960s open-cockpit Can-Am cars (the M1A, M1B and M1C). The 2020 Elva inherits the no-screen, no-roof aesthetic but does so with a 2020-era 815-hp V8 and a carbon monocoque.

Production was originally announced as 399 cars; McLaren cut that to 249, then to 149, citing demand. A windscreen variant was offered for markets where the no-screen version couldn’t be road-registered.

Engine: 4.0L twin-turbo V8, 815 hp
Production: 149 units (open-cockpit) + windscreen variant
Note: Active Air Management routes airflow over cockpit
Predecessor name: Bruce McLaren’s 1960s Elva-McLaren Can-Am cars

The build

Polybag with no roof

The Elva polybag is small (~70 pieces) but the no-roof character translates well at quick-build scale — there’s no canopy or windscreen to render, so what’s left is silver bodywork and a printed McLaren badge.

Display alongside any closed-roof McLaren set to highlight the Elva’s defining absence.
