Best Retired LEGO Speed Champions Sets to Buy Sealed in the UK (2026)
LEGO Speed Champions launched in 2015 and is the LEGO theme that crosses most cleanly into car-fan audiences. Licensed marques include Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bugatti, McLaren, Porsche, Ford, Mercedes-AMG, Aston Martin, Audi, Honda, and many more. Six-stud-wide format from 2015 to 2019 (a closed catalogue now), eight-stud-wide format from 2020 onwards. This post covers the retired Speed Champions sets we currently hold sealed in stock at BuyMyBricks, plus theme context, the format change history, and the buying mistakes Speed Champions buyers most commonly make.
If you own a Ferrari and want a LEGO version, we have it. If you collect 6-stud Speed Champions for theme completion, we have most of the Ford and Ferrari run. If you are buying for a Mustang fan or a Bugatti owner or a McLaren enthusiast, the price band is comfortable and the build is finishable in an evening. We are the UK specialist for retired sealed LEGO and we keep a curated rotation of Speed Champions on the shelf at all times.

What is LEGO Speed Champions?
LEGO Speed Champions launched in 2015 with the original hypercar trinity (LaFerrari 75899, McLaren P1 75909, and Porsche 918 Spyder 75910). The premise was different to the existing Technic line: a buildable, displayable, licensed real-world supercar at smaller scale, finishable in an hour or two, priced for impulse rather than commitment.
The line ran in six-stud-wide format from 2015 to 2019. Roughly 60 sets across single cars, two-packs, and pit-lane scenes. The 6-stud era is now a closed catalogue. In 2020 LEGO scaled the entire theme up to eight-stud-wide format, starting with the Toyota GR Supra 76901 and the Lamborghini Urus ST-X two-pack 76899. Eight-stud Speed Champions is what current LEGO retail sells.
Licensed brands across the run include Ferrari (multiple models), Lamborghini, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Pagani, McLaren, Porsche, Mercedes-AMG, Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Chevrolet (Corvette and Camaro), Ford (Mustang, GT, Fiesta, F-150), Dodge, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Lotus, Jaguar, Mopar, NASCAR, plus the 2024-25 F1 grid (all 10 teams) and IP crossovers (Fast and Furious, Back to the Future, Disney Pixar Cars). It is one of the most-licensed themes LEGO have ever produced.
The retired LEGO Speed Champions sets in stock at BuyMyBricks (May 2026)
The only LEGO 6-stud Chiron ever made. A short retail run (about 14 months on shelves) and a single licensed-Bugatti window puts this one in scarce-supply territory. The build captures the Chiron silhouette with the wing and the duotone bodywork without tipping into caricature. For collectors completing the 6-stud catalogue or for any Bugatti enthusiast who wants the LEGO version, this is the one.

The Bullitt-coloured Mustang. LEGO never licensed the Bullitt name, but they picked the year, the body, and Highland Green anyway. Pearl-gold disc-brake wheels, brick-built tail lights, lightsaber-hilt exhausts, trans-brown windscreen. The strongest cultural reference in the entire Speed Champions Ford line and one of the cheapest entry points to a retired 6-stud Speed Champions car. Full deep-dive in our Mustang 75884 buyer guide.

The endurance-racing livery Ferrari 488 GT3 in Scuderia Corsa colours. Strong red-and-white print work, a printed dashboard, and the classic 6-stud Speed Champions opening boot. Most-stocked Speed Champions set on our shelf at £37.99 sealed, which is the most accessible price point in the entire 6-stud Ferrari run. Good entry point for Speed Champions newcomers.

The last 6-stud McLaren hypercar before the format change in 2020. The Senna name carries cultural weight from the F1 driver, and the orange-black colourway makes the build distinctive on a shelf. Strong sealed supply at the moment but unlikely to remain so. Last 6-stud McLaren means closed catalogue.

The only WRC rally car in the 6-stud Speed Champions catalogue. M-Sport blue with full rally livery, mud flaps, and a 6-stud-wide rally-cabin layout. Sister set to the 1968 Mustang 75884 from the same 2 March 2018 release wave. For Ford completists, this is the partner the Mustang sits next to on a shelf.

The bridge set from the 6-stud era to the 8-stud era. One of the first 8-stud Speed Champions cars LEGO produced, and an early example of the wider stance and longer wheelbase that defines the modern format. Race-red Ferrari F8 Tributo with printed dashboard. For collectors transitioning between formats, this is the natural starting point.
Buy sealed — £57.99 →
The McLaren Elva at 8-stud-wide format. Open-cockpit speedster body, distinctive front-end design, no windscreen. One of the more visually unusual McLarens in the LEGO catalogue. A natural pair with the McLaren Senna 75892 above for builders comparing the 6-stud and 8-stud McLaren designs side by side.
Buy sealed — £68.99 →
One of the rarer licensed brands in the Speed Champions catalogue. Pagani Utopia in the modern hypercar shape, with the signature exposed-mechanical Pagani aesthetic translated to LEGO. Cheapest entry point in our 8-stud range at £31.66 sealed and a strong gift-buying option for hypercar fans who want something past the usual Ferrari and Lamborghini stable.
Buy sealed — £31.66 →
From the LEGO Fast and Furious crossover wave. The Honda S2000 from the 2 Fast 2 Furious film in Suki’s pink-and-cherry-blossom livery. One of the more recognisable IP crossover sets in the Speed Champions line for film fans, and one of the more colourful builds on a shelf. For 2 Fast 2 Furious viewers, this is the LEGO version.

One of the larger Speed Champions flagships from the 6-stud era. The FXX K hypercar plus a full Development Centre garage with workshop, service bay, and Ferrari engineer minifigures. Huge piece count for the format, and one of the harder-to-find sealed Speed Champions sets on the UK secondary market.

The first-wave Speed Champions Ferrari F1 flagship. The F14 T Formula 1 car plus the full Scuderia Ferrari transporter truck. Very early Speed Champions release (2015 launch wave), short retail run, and one of the only LEGO sets that has paired an F1 car with its team transporter at this scale.

Ferrari F40 Competizione 75890. 198 pieces, released 2019, retired 2021. The single most-discussed retired Speed Champions set on Reddit r/SpeedChampions. The 80s supercar in race livery.

The 6-stud vs 8-stud format change
Common buying mistakes for LEGO Speed Champions buyers
Sticker-vs-printed expectations. Most Speed Champions liveries are stickers, not printed parts. The race numbers, the sponsor logos, the gold stripes, the team liveries are all sticker work. Buyers expecting Creator Expert-style printed bricks across the body get disappointed. Always check the listing.
Set-vs-set confusion. 75884 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback (the Bullitt-coded 6-stud) is not 75871 modern Ford Mustang GT (the red 6-stud Mustang from 2016) is not 76920 Ford Mustang Dark Horse (the 8-stud modern Mustang). Three Mustangs across two scales. Same applies to multiple Camaros (75874 / 75891 / 76935) and multiple Bugattis (75878 Chiron / 77240 Centodieci). Always verify the year, set number, and box image, not just the photo.
Polybag vs full set. 30683 McLaren F1 (polybag, around 30 pieces) is not 76918 McLaren Solus (the full set). Polybags sit at gift-with-purchase prices. Always check piece count.
Two-pack assumptions. Many 8-stud “two-pack” sets (76903 Lamborghini Sian, 76904 Mopar Dodge, 76918 McLaren) ship with two cars in one box at the same price as some single-car sets. Check the contents before assuming.
F1 sets are still in production. The 2024-25 F1 grid sets are not retired. They are current LEGO retail. If you see a “retired” tag on a 77240+ F1 set, treat it sceptically.
Who buys retired Speed Champions in 2026
Theme completists. Collectors filling 6-stud-era gaps. Closed catalogue plus small footprint makes it realistic to complete the entire 6-stud run. Active community on r/SpeedChampions where threads like “All my 8-wide Champions kits so far” surface regularly.
Brand fans. Ferrari, Mustang, Bugatti, McLaren, and Porsche owners and enthusiasts buy the LEGO version of the car they own or aspire to. Single-set purchases, less price-sensitive on the right car. The Bugatti Chiron 75878 sells to actual Chiron buyers; the 1968 Mustang 75884 sells to Mustang fans who do not normally buy LEGO.
Gift buyers. Birthday and Christmas presents for petrolheads. The £25 to £50 single-car sets and the 1968 Mustang are the sweet spot. Buildable in an evening, displays on a desk or shelf, low commitment.
Why does sealed matter for LEGO Speed Champions?
Three reasons specific to the theme. The minifigure driver: most 6-stud Speed Champions sets ship with one driver figure, set-unique to that release. Used Speed Champions cars are routinely listed without the figure. Replacement on BrickLink runs £6 to £15 per figure. The sticker sheet: once stickers are applied to a Speed Champions car, they cannot be re-flatted. Used cars often have peeling, misaligned, or partially-removed stickers. The small printed parts: most cars have one or two printed parts (a logo tile, a dashboard print, a wheel detail) that are tiny enough to be lost during teardown.
What other Speed Champions buyers say
Don’t just take our word for it
The Reddit r/SpeedChampions community is one of the most active retired-LEGO sub-communities. Recurring conversation themes in 2026: completing the 6-stud Ford line (Mustang 75884, Fiesta 75885, Ford GT 75881), the high desirability of the Ferrari F40 Competizione 75890, the hypercar trinity from 2015, and what the eight-stud format change means for the future of Speed Champions. The single biggest sealed-demand signal in the Speed Champions sub-community is the Ferrari F40 75890.
The honest criticisms reviewers consistently flag are the sticker-heavy approach to liveries (most builders wish more were printed), the narrow appearance of 6-stud cars when viewed head-on (which is why LEGO moved to 8-stud format in 2020), and the inconsistent piece-per-pound value across the line. None of these criticisms touch the core appeal of the theme: a buildable, displayable, licensed real-world car.
Source consensus: Brickset Speed Champions theme page and Reddit r/SpeedChampions.

Which retired LEGO Speed Champions set should I buy first?

What is the difference between 6-stud and 8-stud Speed Champions?
6-stud-wide format ran from 2015 to 2019. 8-stud-wide format from 2020 onwards. 6-stud cars are smaller and have a closed catalogue. 8-stud cars are larger, with more refined proportions, and are still in production. The two formats do not display together cleanly.

Sealed. The minifigure driver, sticker sheet, and small printed parts go missing or get damaged in used copies.
