Thank you for all the nice comments.
It really was a dream to put together, which,I guess helps speed up the construction process.
I tested it outside today and it really is a fast moving model-very powerful indeed!
It seems a lot of money but you pay for quality!
A good weekend to you all, regards. Alan

Hi Mick
Thanks.
Just taken it for a spin around the garden,I feel like a kid with a new toy!!!
Really nippy even over grass. I've got the volume set to minimum and it is quite loud, realistic though, so next time I will turn up the volume to max and see if I can get the neighbours looking out their windows.
The machine gun sounds great!!
Love the start up and engine idle sounds. A must have model because it looks good too.
Regards.
Alan

Hi Tony
It's just great! If you get fed up with driving it round the garden you can plonk it back on the sideboard as a static display-can't go wrong.
The dog's not so keen having tried to intercept it on a number of occasions, but I avoided confrontation, I shut her out of the front room-only kidding I put it away!
Seriously though It's a great kit.
Regards.
Alan
