Is the LEGO Builder app necessary for assembly?

It is not strictly necessary, but it is highly recommended as it provides 3D instructions that are helpful for complex automotive builds.

Does the roof remain in place if folded?

The textile roof can be folded back to reveal the detailed cockpit, providing two distinct ways to display the interior.

What is the best way to clean the model?

Troubleshooting

Difficulty aligning exterior panels

Ensure that the internal chassis frame is perfectly square before attaching the body panels, as small misalignments early on can propagate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning, download the LEGO Builder app to access interactive 3D assembly guides, which help clarify the placement of smaller, intricate parts. When building, ensure you have adequate lighting and a tray to hold small components to prevent loss. To care for your completed Jaguar E-Type, use a soft-bristled brush or compressed air to remove dust from the crevices and wire-style wheels. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive cloths on the plastic surfaces, as these can leave scratches or residue. The model is compatible with standard LEGO display stands if you wish to elevate it for a more dynamic look.
