It's nice :wink: - It's not really the best looking buggy for it's scale, but it is good...

Ok, thanks for critique.

It looks wide from bottom like go-cart. I can look at this as hybrid buggy :wink:

Buggy has usually flat engine from VW bug (and chassis, axles...) that is why is called BUGgy - caps here are just to help to see where from word buggy comes. I have never made such small buggy so I could say that it is not good I my was better, but in this case I can only say that I would like that there is no roof

I think it is a great simple build, we often forgot to appretiate simplicity. The only thing I don't like, is the stacked beams solution for the hood. Might be also better for proportions to use 1 cylinder engine too, so the seat would fit better, but this is reallly nitpicking.

You do develop your skills well in overall, and good to see some out of the box thinkering (6L links + axles; angled connections). :thumbup: Keep on building!

Do you mean uncovered roof? That was to omit air conditioning for weight saving.. :wink:

As simple as possible, that is why it is a inline engine.

Maybe I can change engine to a flat two if room allows, and the seat would fit better.

You come up with models very quickly.  I will say that I thought your last MOC was better, but I think your biggest problem is not having a wide selection of parts, which is not a problem.  You make do with what you have very well. 

Nice job, keep doing what you are doing!
