Licensed by Porsche and accompanied by a collector’s manual from the Porsche Museum, it’s designed for enthusiasts aged 14+ to assemble without glue or paint, combining precision engineering with historical authenticity. ## Description From the manufacturer The incomparable icon from Zuffenhausen Experience the functioning of the legendary Porsche six-cylinder boxer with this fully functional kit as it has been installed in the Porsche 911 since 1963. To this day, the legendary basic construction has lost none of its fascination - and is still considered the classic German sports car engine. Detailed and fully functional – pure fascination More than 290 components represent extremely detailed construction and functioning of the sports unit. And everything works at the touch of a button: The ignition sparks light up, the pistons move back and forth laterally. At the touch of a button, the character-strong motor sound sounds, which still provides a gooseskin feeling. The official licensing by Porsche AG ensures technical and historical correctness. Everything about the history and technology of the Porsche boxer Also licensed by Porsche is the accompanying book with all the interesting and important background information about the Porsche 911 and its epochal drive. To ensure that the assembly of the kit can be easily achieved, every assembly and assembly step is shown pictorially and textually. Easy to assemble - full function! Engine block, camshaft, piston, valves, distributors, ignition cables, fan wheel - this kit contains everything a functional engine kit must have! The high-quality workmanship of the individual components ensures long functional safety. The right tool you need for assembly is of course included. And the best: No need to glue or paint Review: excellent if you follow the instructions exactly . - My 5yr old grandson assembled most of it under my supervision . It is vital to read the book prior to assembly as some details have a very specific order which is not immediately obvious. Fitting the cams and rockers requires adult intervention but the rest is fiddly but fascinating for a child with good manual dexterity . Review: Terrible quality control for the price. - This was a Christmas present for my brother. When it arrived I thought the sticky box seals looked suspect like it had already been opened at some point and the box was a bit bashed on the corners. After reading other reviews about missing or damaged parts I told him to check the contents thoroughly before attempting to build it in case I needed to return it. As you can see from the photo, some of the parts are severely deformed and not moulded correctly. I will be returning this and requesting a replacement. I will update the review if the replacement also has issues. This is extremely unacceptable for an official Porsche product at this kind of price! The least they could do is check the parts before putting them in the box. I am still unsure if this may have been a return from another dissatisfied customer due to the condition of the box and contents, which would mean this has escaped quality control twice! Either way, purchase at your own risk and check it thoroughly. Hopefully desertcart’s reasonable returns policy will rectify the situation to some degree, but still does not excuse the manufacturer. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 14 years.
