XMAS ideas

Howdy lads,

Saw this the other day, and am thinking of getting it for my young lad this year.

Perfect for showing folks what that noisy rattly thing up front is doing :)

What is amazing is that as soon as the 1yr warranty is up, it develops an odd electrical fault and one of the pistons pops clean through the top of the block. So realistic!

I pretty much have the same thing, but the Haynes one. Good fun to put together, but the instructions were useless. There's also a v8 engine available - google for visible v8 kit.
