Although the doors, bonnet, and roof remain fixed, this does little to detract from the overall authenticity and intricacy of the model. The robust chassis makes it suitable for play across rugged surfaces — a nice touch for those who want more than just a static model.
The finished car boasts an impressive visual heft and the correct scale to pair with the LEGO 42098 Car Transporter, adding to its collectibility. Assembly is straightforward for anyone comfortable with the Technic series, though newcomers might find some challenges. The set’s design strikes a great balance between playability and detailed engineering, making it a worthy addition for both collectors and builders.
