I love the way the car looks. The contrast between the grey exterior and the red seats works really well.

And I love that gearbox. I wonder if it could be made any more compact. How did you make that gif of the gearbox?

You may want to post some more photos showcasing the other features like the opening doors and such.

If that gearbox appears in an official set I'll definitely buy it!

This is prooving to be a great competition. Your gearbox is a great work of innovation. What part is that for the wing mirrors?

If you mean the side view mirrors, it should be this part.

Great looking car. I like the color scheme

[legolijntje]

Interesting color for the body, most Technic models and MOC's have LBG parts on the inside, not LBG on the outside as bodywork. It looks quite nice.

Also, that gearbox mechanism looks very nice.

Great work!

Amazing gearbox mechanism! The front grille looks a little strange though - did someone put a piano keyboard there :P?

[Alex Ilea]

Amaizing model :)

One thing that stands out to me about this build is how clean it is. Being a neat-freak myself I appreciate this build a lot. Good job!

PS very cool gearbox mechanism.

Thank you all for your nice comments!

The gearbox is made with regulair parts. only for the mirror I used unusual parts.

What part is that for the wing mirrors?

Like ddeklerk already said, it's indeed this part.

And I love that gearbox. I wonder if it could be made any more compact. How did you make that gif of the gearbox?

Maybe that the link mechanic could be a bit smaller, but I needed all the space above it for the gears.

The animated gif was made with LDD and Gimp. With LDD, just move and rotate all the parts a bit for each frame and take screenshots. I think a used about 20 different frames for this one.
