This was LEGO's first attempt at the Beetle & in my opinion much better then the newer version released in 2016. Great model to build, rather challanging due to the amount of same colour plates making up the dark blue body. Fair size & weight probably the biggest of the creator rxpert vehicles to date. Doors boot & bonnet open to reveal various elements like the engine & spare wheel with tool kit & oil can. Model is 10 years old this year & most will suffer from fading if they have been displayed, especially the light blue, stone grey & white pieces. They can be replaced with genuine LEGO parts but budget at least £20-30 to do it properly, especially if some of the dark blue bricks need changing too. If you are carefull, the sun damaged parts can all be replaced without the need to fully rebuild the model (I have done several now) Decent examples boxed, with instructions & info plaque sell for £200+ Sealed box examples can trade for silly money £500+.
