Description

A familiar highway chase

This set builds a classic scene: a police vehicle giving chase to catch a lawbreaker on the highway. That straightforward idea is one of the most popular themes in LEGO City's police range and works straight out of the box, without needing a bigger backstory or a companion app. Two minifigures are included, likely an officer and the person being pursued, so the chase scene can be set up and played with immediately, with no assembly required beyond the vehicle itself.

Colours built for speed

Black, blue, red and light bluish grey form a classic police colour scheme that reads instantly as an emergency vehicle while still giving a sporty, fast impression. Red is used sparingly for accents such as light bar details or the getaway vehicle. With 92 different elements out of 185 pieces, the share of unique parts is fairly high, pointing to detail work such as bumpers, wheels and printed panels that give the vehicle its character and make it feel more substantial than the piece count alone suggests.

Small build, full play value

At 185 pieces, the set goes together quickly, making it a good choice for younger builders or a short project between bigger builds. Despite the modest size, there's enough here for a properly detailed vehicle with recognisable features rather than a stripped-down model. Once built, it's ready to play with straight away and combines easily with other City vehicles and sets into a bigger street scene, growing the collection one set at a time.

Parts for your own builds

The parts list on this page covers all 92 different elements and their colours, a good source of wheels, axles and body panels for custom vehicle builds. Sets built around a classic chase vehicle like this one often supply useful chassis parts that work well in other creations. The list also makes it easy to spot a missing piece and reorder exactly what's needed.
