Lots of members from the other forum seemed to like Lego just as much as cars.

This was one of my Black Friday purchases that I put together a couple of Saturday's ago when my other half was watching Strictly on the TV.
Took about 3 Hrs to complete.

Nice, we’ve gone Harry Potter sets daft in this house. Santa sack will have a sigh of relief dropping it off tomorrow.
 
I've just dropped you a message!
Hi Naomi,
Sorry for delay in replying but had mail issues today.
Don't think that the wiggly bit is involved in stage 205. Picture is a bit misleading. The universal joint "wiggly bit" is part of the steering assembly and used in stage 279.
Hope that helps.

Done!
Instructions were a little tricky, missed images, missed steps and the parts list wasn't accurate and I had to dig into the spares but... ...it is a great model. Better than the original face shovel and the dozer alternative. In my opinion.



Will grab some 45 deg pipes because the exhausts (lego original) aren't great. I used white 6 long pieces on the bucket because I had no black or dark grey then found I needed these on the cabin! So a couple of other bits to grab and put the cab back as it should be and properly cover young Bob.
 
I’ve only done a couple of the Speed championships sets and I have the GR Supra to do but I can definitely see myself slipping deep into this rabbit hole! Some of the sets are amazing these days.
 
Don't ask me why, but we watched this YT vid at XMAS. James May & Richard Hammond drinking Vodka shots whilst attempting to build a Lego Go Kart. o_O
