Posted May 16, 20177 yr Hi Everyone. Today I want to show you a my technic version of legendary car, a VW Golf GTI MkI. Dimensions: -Lenght: 43,5cm -Width: 18cm -Height: 16cm -Weight: 2120g Functions: -Drive (XL motor) -Steering (ServoMotor) -Full suspension (Front- MCPherson/ Rear- twist bean axle) -Fake 4 cylinders engine -Openable door, hood and rear trunk -Working steering wheel -Front "Angel Eyes" LED ligths -Adjustable front seats It has a deatiled engine and interior. BatteryBox and IR receiver are in trunk. It moving fast enought and steering well. You can adjust front seats and open passanger's glove compartment. A suspension workin good but front springs are little too soft. It's all from me. Im waiting for your comments :) FULL GALLERY: https://www.flickr.com/photos/124730997@N05/albums/72157681690383841
May 16, 20177 yr Oh, you've built my childhood ido l.... And the way you did it, just wow. I love it.
May 17, 20177 yr This is awesome, you managed to capture the boxy body very well and I love all the little added overlooked details, like the cowel and stripe down the side! Very well done
May 17, 20177 yr What a truly impressive model. The level of detail that you have added is exceptional. Your video is wonderful, the perfect showcase for the model. I am embarrassed to say that I did a quick scan of the model earlier and had passed it off as "okay," but after seeing the video I see the error in my previous assessment! Really excellent work all around!
May 17, 20177 yr I feel like if you changed the front end slightly and one or two other things, it would be a Lancia Delta Integrale. Great MOC!
May 17, 20177 yr Wooooow! How beautiful! What a detalization! Fantastic build! If You will make the instructions, I built the model of my childhood...
May 17, 20177 yr Really good detail level. One of my little dream cars, but as I have now technics, there's no money for that
May 17, 20177 yr It looks very cool and with such number of details; really good. Like we were back in the past where things were simpler than today (talking about cars)

May 17, 20177 yr Wow it is a really great biuld! Every mechanical component (except gearbox, probably) is in place, plus it is remotely controlled. It is quite an achievement in that scale. Every time I change the wheels on my Golf, I am telling myself, I need to recreate that suspension in Lego. You have totally nailed it! I love the frontal drive line setup: XL, differential, bevel gears, chain and fake engine - brilliant! And great work on the video! That first view with the cooling towers really sets the mood.

May 17, 20177 yr I think it is the first FWD car lego technic I have seen, very nice build As usual, I should add. I like your style of building. Could you please show the front axle without wheels?
May 17, 20177 yr I am very impressed, very good job, realistic and small, MOCs like this make me want to build again .

At the first I thought that you made with Unimog tires, but then I realized that they are 62.4 Tires used for smaller model. Nice change with all super and hypercar models is to have model that is more "down to Earth"

May 19, 20177 yr This build is epic!! The side shot is perfect. I love the engine bay and lights. Well done!!
May 19, 20177 yr I am not a fan of stacked beams, but this build is amazing, instantly recognizable. I also admire the video presentation You made, we start to catch up Top Gear in quality. Top notch work!

May 19, 20177 yr That's an awesome model! I really like the interior especially - it contrails the all needed parts despite the size. It's very close to Model Team precise, well done! Sorry for a little off-top, but I just remembered the craziest Franco Sbarro's modification of MK1: Sbarro Golf Turbo 1980 with a Porshe 911 engine (in the trunk) and RWD: http://www.4legend.com/2016/volkswagen-golf-turbo-sbarro-de-1983-moteur-porsche-911-turbo-de-300-ch Spoiler And with the most interesting feature: Edited May 19, 20177 yr by Void_S
