Main gift
Really good fun to build and can be challenging. A good kit to build for adult enthusiasts as well. Be aware that you need to put batteries in the main motor at the start but will be unlikely to retrieve them as the complex model is built around the motor. Also be careful how the clear optic fibres are used the instructions may need a photo example. A good challenge and large model although the black tyres can be a real stubborn block forced on to the wheels.

It is 25 in 1
The media could not be loaded. There are DEFINITELY 25 models available on the Meccano website for this. They are not hard to find.No parts missing.Battery replacement isn't hard. Remove the 4 bolts which attach the forward chassis and you can access the battery compartment with ease.Instructions easily followed IF you have encountered Meccano before. I would not recommend this as your first kit.Certainly if you are not paying attention you will do things which result in problems. The drivetrain and supporting structure in particular needs to be carefully aligned so that it does not jam.The kits primary focus is to make a car which looks good and moves. It achieves this. However there are too many plastic components and friction joins to say that this is robust. The motor is quite underpowered for the weight so a crawl is all you get.I think Spin Master need to refocus Meccano back into mostly metal so that they can make robust models. Reading reviews this is what people want. If we wanted plastic we'd buy Lego.

Construction n Challenge well worth the time!
An excellent construction set for all ages above 12yrs, without adult assistance. The possibility of building up to 25 different vehicles which are motorized. All parts seem to be tough enough n well designed for purpose. One criticism being that the battery pack is inaccessible once fitted so batteries need loading beforehand n thus if run down can’t be changed without deconstructing vehicle!

Worth Purchasing
I bought this for my 18-year-old brother, to help him focus and to give him something more productive to do during the lockdown than play his PS4.It's deffo done the trick. he loves it and it keeps him busy.The quality of the product is sound - and I can not find a single fault with it.

Stunning!
I think it's the led lights that really makes this one stand out from the others. They're so clear and sharp which just adds to the overall look and appeal.

Meccano -
Last minute stocking filler for 12 year old mad on cars, excellent quality as you would expect from Meccano, husband had more fun helping building it than he would admit, lots of different ways to build a vehicle, good value for money

Could do better.
It's been many years since I bought any Meccano and I think it will be many years before I buy any more. The quality control seems to be lacking. There were several pieces missing which reduced the pleasure of building the model. The rear axle is a very tight fit which does stop the smooth running of the car. At this point I emailed Meccano to request the missing parts. After a couple of emails they apologised for the mistake and offered me a replacement kit. Now that is great customer service. But it should not have come to that. It should have been right first time. I am a great fan of a certain Danish building block company but thought I would have a change. The difference in quality of the pieces, the instructions and fit is much better with the Danish firm. Will I buy another Meccano kit? Not sure.
