I know we featured the Space Shuttle set the other day, but we think this Lego 1960s Volkswagen T1 Camper Van tops even that.

All-new Volkswagen T2 camper van at Danbury Motor Caravans
Yes, there are plenty of classic models on eBay right now and pretty much all the time. Condition varies and you'll almost certainly need to spend some time and money keeping it on the road and looking good. If that sounds like hard work, you can spend even more money on a new Volkswagen T2 camper van at Danbury Motor Caravans.
Of course, there are pluses and minus. The big 'minus' is that this isn't an original classic and for many, that's going to be a big problem. As for the plus, well this is a new van from the VW factory in Brazil, with a fuel injected, water-cooled modern engine, complete with electronic ignition and a catalytic converter exhaust system, along with front servo assisted disc brakes and rear drum brakes, as well as the option to run on either bio fuel or unleaded petrol.
eBay watch: Austin Mini 1988 Mary Quant Designer Edition
There are a couple of these on eBay right now (you can see the other and cheaper one here), but we've opted for this Austin Mini Mary Quant Designer Edition because, quite simply, it looks a better car.
Both have been reconditioned though, so both worth a look if you are after one of these cars, which are certainly becoming more collectible as the years pass. This one, from 1988, has been significantly restored without affecting the original design, with parts and labour put at about £2,000. See the listing for a breakdown of upgrades.
Mileage is 70,500, condition is said to be 'excellent' and the Quant interior is intact. The bidding right now is £1,019. Lots of images on the listing page.

eBay watch: 1972 Citroen DS
Looking for a project as winter approaches? This 1972 Citroen DS could be it.
Not as sharp as the 1969 version we featured a while back, but this isn't in the same condition. Not that we're writing it off – the car still has a lot going for it – and is ready to go if you want it for the daily commute.
eBay watch: 1970s Herbie-styled Volkswagen Beetle
Not just an old Beetle, this is a 1970s Herbie-styled Volkswagen Beetle.
Specifically, this is a 1973 VW Beetle with a 1.3 engine, complete with the paint job inspired by the classic Herbie movies, which of course kicked off with the 1968 Love Bug movie.
According to the seller, the car has done 73,000 miles and has been taxed and tested. It's also described as a 'good runner and driver'. The price is £2,500, with lots of images on the sales page.
eBay watch: 1970 Fiat 500L
We know you love these – and this 1970 Fiat 500L is something of a gem.
Four previous owners and just 57,000 on the clock, as well as being in good original condition. It's not one of those overly-renovated models, which is perhaps part of its charm. That and the price tag anyway.
