I started this kit about 4 weeks ago, building the wheels first, then the engine and chassis. I'm now working on the interior. I'll post photos when I have more to show.
The kit has a lot of detail which means some very small and fussy parts and lots and lots of construction drawings. My one complaint is some of the parts don't show up in the drawings. On more than one occasion, I've had to sit and stare at the drawings and parts to figure out how an assembly is supposed to look or where it is supposed to go.
That said, the kit is well-designed and so far almost everything fits together well. So far, the only area that has given me trouble was the steering linkage. It just didn't seem to fit no matter what I finally got it together but I'm not sure it's right. An oblique view would have been helpful.
Other than that, I give the kit high marks so far for fit and finish. If the rest of the kit is as good as the chassis, I'll be very pleased.
The kit has the front wheels straight. I built them turning because it makes a more interesting display. According to the Modelik site, the wheels rotate. I never did figure out how to make that happen. (I don't read Polish.) But they won't fall off.
