Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 by starstreak

Well worth buying. Not sure if it's worth paying the going price for it new. Heck, I've seen the stickers on Bricklink selling for over $70! Sheesh! I bet that's the reason why Lego didn't have any spare stickers when I asked them about it.

Highly Recommended. Go buy this model and you definitely won't regret it, and in the rare event that you don't like it feel free to send it to me.

Recommendation: meh 9 / 10 by The LEGO Car Blog Team

This set stands up very well on it's own merits. Compare it too closely to 8880, however, and it does come up short in a few areas. It's a more ‘commercial' set, if you like, concentrating on surface aspects more than the substance within. It also has more of a ‘built to a price' feel than the ‘money no object – let's stuff everything in' 8880. This isn't necessarily a bad thing – 8880's four wheel steering was just wilful – but it seems a slight shame that, for the first time in this series, technical progress had stopped.

I have always liked this Technic set. It has hardly ever been dismantled in the 15 years that I have owned it. This set fuses the strength and rigidity of the brick built chassis to compliment the modern curved look achieved through the use of flexible axles and panels.
