Looks very nice, specially spare tire dominates rear part

This is what I love in a B-model! A great well functioning model that is very different form the main model! This seems very good!

I just wish Lego could be as creative and start including B-models again...

Thank you! Lego including B-models but not always, you need to get used to it in my opinion

Nice little buggy, I like the overall shape and the compact engine build in the back.

About the rear suspension, is that a proper live axle that can actually articulate (one side move up-down without the other), or is it a trailing arm that moves the rear wheels together? To me it seems the latter.

Thanks! Yes, the rear suspension is trailing arm that move wheels together.
