I have the same problem.

As I can only look at the pictures can you please explain why the inventory states I need 4 Tyres - I can only see two on the model.

Today I realised that I had just about enough extra parts to build the 8275 "B" Model. Just waiting on a second XL motor & battery box to complete. Its not as complex or good as the main model but it did use up some more parts remaining in the children's now unused & redundant box of old Lego.

Coincidently,I am just finishing an 8421 now, it was the first Technic model I bought for my sons (one each for Xmas). At the same time I purchased a 8674 Ferrari F1 car for myself. Happy days!

Fantastic work, I really like it - Well done.

Thank you, the only part I couldn't find was the top of the exhaust, so £1.50 spent on Ebay.

Originally in 2006 it was a 8674 Ferrari F1 Car to make sure I was up to the task of helping my young children with Lego models. I still own it with replaced aftermarket stickers now. Another dark age followed but a Lamborghini Sian brought me back to Technics.

Probably of no consequence to anybody but I spent the day sorting through the kids (now adults) huge box of Lego to find the parts for this model. Originally they had one each but I am targetting building one as I now know one remote and one battery box are too corroded and probably not all the parts are there for a second build. Fortunately, the lower body internals for one were still intact and the remote functions and motors worked. A productive Lego day but slowed when you have to spend maybe an hour rummaging through Lego parts for one piece! At least the end result will be another complete 2007 8275 even if I ultimately have to buy any parts to complete the build.

Seriously impressive, I really hope Lego show some interest as I would be one of the first purchasers.

So thats the only problem, perhaps you could simply PM SNIPE and start "sharing" with the rest of us.

To be fair the only mechanical question that I noticed you ask was whether the Daytona SP3 had a shift block - Like the Sian. You answered your own question in a subsequent post - The Sian doesn't have a shift block.

I wanted them also but not at this price.

I could have used a couple of them earlier today, its a shame Lego do not make them.

I will try another one

Does this work? It does for me.

I have ordered the parts I don't have to complete these two superb mods, which I really think add a very major improvement to the model. Makes me wonder why the designer didn't implement these two mods at least? Ferrari must have collaborated as much as Mclaren did with the Mclaren F1 car (In particular the initial flawed wheel insert stickers). I am hesitant about the "A" pillar mod as the designer conveys the real lfe curved windscreeen with the use of flexi's. Perhaps I will implement the other mods in the future but for now these two are really outstanding. Great work. Thank you.

Even with using Lego 62462 (technic pin connector round 2L with slot) parts 21 & 22 do not even touch the red sloping bonnet (Please see my earlier post and picture link). I intend substituting the four 62462 for four Beam 2 (43857) Black.

I have done the bonnet mod and light orange bar at the back end. Also covered up the holes at rear below exhaust with flat plates. For now this model is finished.

This works for the bonnet with no bending or conflicts, although coverage is not as good reasonable gaps are maintained. Bonnet Mod

According to my instructions and my model the black exhaust side pieces exposed studs should be half obscured by the vertical 2X1 beams either side of them yet your ingots are mounted on these studs and are fully visible. Your whole exhaust outlet seems higher? I am going to try two flat 2X1 tiles just to cover up the studs.

I have the set but haven't opened the inner box yet. I need to slow down on the Lego builds but I couldn't resist this one. If I look on Rebrickable it seems I have 21 sets built.

I have had enough of this book I have now been let down by two Ebay sellers due to the rise in prices. Do I need this book NO did I want it YES. I will have to get over it and hope I win a copy in the Lego draw otherwise I will have to draw a line under the whole experience.

I did I have maxxed out my entries.

Probably not a valid question but why does a dislay model require a gearbox. My models get built and dislayed end of story.

Against my better judgement I just paid £120 for one on Ebay.
