About this creation
Licence Plate: Calisota D52-C6Q

New for 2007, the Enquire is the (flagship) luxury SUV from A-Civil. The styling for the car is based on the '07 Chevy Suburban. This is the upgraded DX model, with Chrome Wheels (from Gear Grinders), chrome strips across the body, chrome mirrors, part-chrome roof rails, and fog lights. There is no rear window wiper for two reasons: a)It is hidden the body (or the LEGO(r) reason) b)I couldn't find a black base.
The interior of the car is alos luxurious, with a tan on black scheme and well outfitted to mathch to the flat roof. The rear styling is something new to Alpha, and I think it looks pretty good. Like most large SUVs, this one is fairly boxy.
The powerplant is a V6 (this is the DX...), as seen below. I used a hingless opening system in which two loose bricks bend around the wheel wells to open. Observe below.
I shot the pics outside to show the real LEGO blue color.

Inside. You can see that I have started using simpler seat backs.
