I am well outside the age range stated on the box (being over sixty) but that perhaps gives an idea of the age range this kind of model appeals to. I can honestly say that putting together this car has given me at least twelve to fifteen hours of fun assembling the one thousand and five parts.I didn't rush the assembly, taking it in stages over three days. I liked the way that the build was arranged so that putting together a complex section (like the engine or suspension unit) alternated with a more basic piece of construction (like a section of bodywork). You need a sharp eye to differentiate between some of the smaller parts which are quite similar to each other and I recommend emptying the packets out into trays to make finding the part you need easier.

This is the second Lego Technic set that I've assembled, and again I was completely blown away by the level of detail, complexity, hard work required to put it together and sense of satisfaction at reaching the end!My children haven't yet reached an age where Technic would be a appropriate, but my 9-year-old son is definitely approaching a time where he's beginning to find traditional Lego less interesting than before. Ninjago etc is great, but he's reaching a point where the smaller sets are so easy as to not be fun, and the only real way to challenge him is with increasingly expensive, large-scale models. Given this, I could see a point in the future where the challenge of the Technic sets would suck him right back in!This rally car,

I've just built Lego's superb Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS kit - an amazingly complex construction, but one which is aimed at adult builders both in terms of complexity and price. This kit is in some ways the slightly cut-down version of the same thing, at a third the price and with a third the number of pieces, but with a lot of similarity in terms of design - it's more appropriate for a younger audience as a result.You still get a working 4-cylinder engine with moving pistons, working steering (albeit controlled by a knob on the roof of the car rather than the actual steering wheel), rear differential, double-wishbone suspension, and opening doors, bonnet and rear clamshell.

With an age range of 10-16 and price < £100 you get an idea where this is pitched at -it’s not a flagship model like the Porsche but more a general build and play set. I’d say this would be very advanced for a 10year old and about right to challenge a 16 year old.The suspension on all four wheels with floating wishbones on the front is superb. The steering link is clever but a little fragile. The engine is a very basic setup -the diff is good but compared to models where you actually get gears which change the rotation, it’s as simple as it gets in terms of having moving pistons.Quite a lot of stickers (which I hate) and I found the body work sections not overly engaging - repetitive but fairly quick.The final model is very robust and very playable.

So this is such an awesome gift for anyone who loves building things, and with the patience to see it out to completion. Ignore the age range because at 58 I got a real kick out of this Technic set.I took it really slowly, maybe an hour a night for a couple of weeks, sometimes missing out and sometimes spending longer. PArtly, I couldn't spend more time anyway, but partly because I was unfamiliar with these kinds of kits. Of course, I had lego as a kid, but this is a whole different level of detail.It's quite a lovely, meditative process if you take your time, rather than just rushing to see the thing completed. It is so intricate and because all the bits are mixed, you spend forever trying to find the right piece.

Really excited to receive a review copy of this rally car. It is the second most expensive from the early 2018 Technic model release and is delightfully chunky and solid.At 1,005 pieces you are looking at a couple of days of on-off building. It starts with the engine and rear axle (there is 4-wheel suspension on this model), then moves forward to the seats and roll-cage, and finally the front axle and steering. That completes the mechanics and then there are loads a panels to clip on, and a few stickers to apply. You'll need tweezers and a steady hand to apply the stickers to the wheel rims.It is a very satisfying build,

This is a fantastic rally car. It is the little brother to the large rally car that Lego sells for adults which I bought for my son for Christmas after seeing my son-in-law's. This one is aimed at a younger market with age point being 10- 16 but I think this is a good buy for adults too as it is complex to build.There are over 1000 pieces in the box and unlike Lego friends they are not bagged so you have to search for the correct pieces to build the car. This adds to the time and also the satisfaction on completion. A bit like a 1000 piece jigsaw you will not do this in a day. It is very much a work in progress and it is fantastic to see it all coming together. The cockpit is my favourite,

A fun kit to build over the course of several evenings. The finished model is larger than expected. There is a choice of two models to build, the rally car or a beach buggy. I built the rally car and it looks real smart. It has working suspension, and the doors, wing mirrors, bonnet and boot all lift up. You can see a moving engine pistons in the boot when you move the car around. It has fully functional steering controlled from a gear on the roof of the car. Like with most lego technic kits under the hood the bulk of the structure is made from a series of pegs and rounded beams. The panel fascias finishes the aesthetics of the car nicely with stickers that you apply yourself.

Bought this for my lego mad 9 year old and he was so excited to build it. It took him about 3 evenings to build (every morning he was excited to get back from school to carry on!). It's a really large car when built and has loads of cool features such as the bonnet and boot opening, the pistons moving in the engine, and the ability to steer with the cog on the roof. The rear boot also has some nice movement on the side panels too to reveal more of the engine. I bought this set for £50 in the sale and at this price, it's a real steal. At £70, it's still good value as it's the kind of set that you can build and then get hours of play. Oh... and I forgot to mention that it's a 2-in-1 so you also get a beach buggy too!!!

A Lego kit aimed at 10 - 16yr olds? Pah! Thought I, as I dived into the box expecting to finish this within an hour.Ah the arrogance of age!This is an absolutely superb kit and took me a couple of days of very enjoyable assembly, while older children (or those more adept) at Lego would enjoy this, I would worry about younger kids and patience as once or twice even I was getting frustrated and tired but this kit isn’t an evening job, it’s a 1000 piece jigsaw and should be respected as such.The end result is beautiful although personally I prefer the dune buggy version which is a separate assembly job but the rally car design is just amazingly intricate for a Lego project and the attention to

Got this for my boy’s 11th birthday.I worked with him in every stage of the booklet to make sure he got each stage correct before moving to next one. Probably too difficult on his own. To me, an adult who played a lit of Lego as a kid, I found it medium difficulty as only one to a few items added per stage. As a comparison, i then bought on eBay a vintage Lego Techinics car (steering, suspension, 4 cylinder engine) and found this WAY more difficult - lots going on, per stage. I had this car when I was a kid. Still had most of the bits but no instructions. With bought instructions, I should have enough if my own vintage Lego my Dad kept for in case I had kids,

Awesome Rally Car. Also, well priced for a Technic model. It is very impressive when built and for a budding Lego builder the ideal build and easily modified with the right tools. My son built this in half a day and he thoroughly enjoyed it. It has great details. Obviously, it is for ten years and above, but a nine year could build it with some assistance.My son really likes the details and the decal. Over the last week he was able to modify it for RC capability with some extra parts. Really impressive build. If your child loves Technic Cars then this is a must.Overall, an relatively easy build and looks awesome once complete.

This took my Daughter several evenings to complete. I would say maybe 6 hours in total. This was her first Technics Lego and in large part she completed it herself. I did have to save a day on a few occasions.She was rather chuffed with herself when she was done and rightly so.The overall build can be a little tricky as the instructions can get a little muddled, even now once it’s complete the front wheel do not move as smooth as the back, I just can’t see what is wrong with the build.The car itself does look good once completed and is proudly displayed on a shelf in her room.Overall 4 Stars seem about right.

I bought this for my 12 year old son and he absolutely loves it. I wasn't sure if it would be a bit complicated for him, but as usual Lego provide brilliant step by step instructions. He built it entirely himself to my great surprise, as he has been happy to let his big sister help out in the past. It is an incredible bit of kit and looks great in his bedroom. Made the perfect gift for a lad that loves both Lego and rally cars.

42077 Rally Car is one of the best introductory set I’ve ever seen for anyone who is interested in Technic. Not only does it teach the basic structure of the car’s chassis, it also serves as a brilliant base for custom creations of your own, like cars, off-road vehicles or even crawlers with independent suspension. Moreover, you can easily motorise the car with nearly no additional parts. Excellent
