I must say that it is still one of the greatest LEGO Technic kits I've seen. I still love it! I'm 31 now (don't play with LEGO myself now, but I'm keeping it for my son who will enrichen our lives next January...). The ORP was FL 206,- (Dutch guilders) back in 1988. This would now be something like 130,- to 150,- euros 23 years later. Marty rates this set 5 of 5 stars.I received this car from Santa too... in 1992. I remember that it was a big surprise for me. I played with it for about 10 years thereafter.
Lots of fun... but I hated the 4 piston engine, which jammed very often. At first I drove in neutral only, but after I reworked the engine with two pistons, things worked perfectly. I love that car...Dan rates this set 5 of 5 stars.A real achievement of Design for its day. To this day I'm the go-to guy among my friends when something needs fixing and I credit Lego, this set (Auto Chassis #8865) in particular. It has it all, working 3-speed transmission connected to a camshaft and pistons just like in a real car that are also connected to the wheels and move as the car rolls along! A working differential, independent suspension, a working steering wheel with rack-and-pinion steering, and even adjustable seats and actuator headlights. It is the one toy I have kept from my childhood. I consider it an heirloom. Oskie rates this set 4 of 5 stars.Asked the 8865 test car for Christmas from my mom, and while she was skeptical over if I still wanted legos at that age (11) I was determined I wanted it.
Turns out, I've built it only once or twice in my life and was quickly moving away from the legos altogether as my mom had presumed. I always felt bad about that. Now after more than 25 years I've dug it up and assembled the #2 model of the set for the very first time. It was a remarkable trip down memory lane and I'm glad I've kept all the bricks and pieces safe in the basement to maybe one day build this set with my own children. This is the kind of toy that really ages well. And while the car was expensive by the day's standards it would be a steal to get anything under $100 worth of something as great as this lego set.paul rates this set 5 of 5 stars.This is the set that i really wanted way back when i was 8 or 9... i was well into to lego technic then but i remember seeing an advert on TV for this set. I thought it was the most amazing thing i had ever seen. When santa delivered it for christmas i was so happy. Built it, played with it and kept it for 25 years and it is still awesome...

About 18 months ago I had a dangerous thought - "what would I do differently if I were to start again?". The answer was "a lot"! The first 5 years of Rebrickable has taught me so much about building and running a large website, I learned about fields I didn't even know existed :) Rebrickable v3 - Preview/Testing As previously announced, I have spent most of the last year on completely rebuilding Rebrickable from scratch. I am now opening up the testing site for access to everyone, please take a look around and try it out! 2016 - Year In ReviewRebrickable has been running for five years now, and 2016 was an extremely busy time for me.The below chart shows the daily page views for the last 5 years. There is always a surge of activity right after Christmas which eventually tapers off, but the overall trend shows some decent growth.
