But there is going to be an ISSUE 86 with instead of a magazine it will be an instruction manual and will contain a cover for the car. it comes out on the 29th August Drool

Be careful with the instruction book as it's the same, including errors, as the PDFs were on the website.

No probs. Enjoy the build - some parts are....challenging!!

Just watch the solder joints on lights and pedals as some aren't very good! Also watch the wires when you put the bottom on as they crush easily.
