Recommendation: meh 4.2 / 5 from 97 reviews

Very nicely made project. Fairly challenging to assemble (that's a good thing), and was really liked by my grandson (12 years old), who is a wiz at putting Legos together.

Recommendation: meh 7 / 10 by The LEGO Car Blog Team

Overall 42022 is a bit of a mixed bag. Whilst the proportions and detailing are a mile away from accurate (the online Lego Community does it so much better), the mechanical functions – even the terrible steering – are fantastic learning aids for any young builder; all are highly visible within the model and are easy enough to replicate with spare pieces. And that is what Technic should be all about.

I really enjoyed the build of this set. As a finished model it's a lovely display piece, but it also makes a great set for playing with too. Although unable to build it herself, my 2-year old has been fascinated by it and enjoyed pushing it up and down the floor in the conservatory.
