The cost of LEGO Technic has been climbing, and perhaps we don't need every Technic set to have all the features we'd like it to have straight out of the box. Most purchasers are not willing or could not afford to pay for a wealth of additional features on a set like 8081, yet new Technic builders will love this set as it teaches many technical aspects of automobiles and Technic design. It's also a good set to develop a growing parts collection, so experienced Technic builders should love it too.
