I have just recently completed this build. What an absolutely fabulous and totally exquisitely detailed model. This 1886 Benz, the very first car. Teching has pulled out all the stops to produce a model that from the moment you take the lid off the box, you're just absolutely blown away that there is three levels of parts all so neatly packaged and the manual is absolutely incredibly detailed as well. You can just work right through it and it's a pleasure to build. They've thought of absolutely everything. The tools that you need are all in the box. And I've just got to say again that the packaging, when you take the lid off the box, you're just going to be blown away that the packaging is that fantastic. As always, delivered quickly from EngineDIYshop.

A bit sceptical about buying this engine, but took a chance and bought it with the spoke wheel trolley. Loved it so much I bought a second one!
