interesting yours looks like the rear axle is off by 1 stud, same as mine. there must be an issue with the instructions. I enjoyed the build too but yeah you can tell its not an official product!
When you dismantle, have a go a building your own MOC, it aint easy!!! I tried to make a McLaren F1 this time last year with mixed success.

This is what i completed at the weekend - its taken me a while as i have only had the odd hour or two to have a go at it over the last few months...
I found the build challenging. The MOC instructions were very detailed, however there were several points where it was difficult to precisely work out what went where etc.
The rear, in particular, I had issues with and even had to deviate from the instructions just to get part of the assembly to go together.
In terms of the model overall, it isn't as sturdy as i was expecting (i have the Bugatti and that is solid) - it is not as fragile as, say, the Cateram, but you do have to take care when picking it up/moving it.
Now that i have completed it, i'm not 100% sure i really like it, which is a shame as I had been looking forward (for some time) to completing it.
I'm tempted to dismantle it now, and then rebuild the Porche
Wow - that looks pretty awesome.I found the build challenging. The MOC instructions were very detailed, however there were several points where it was difficult to precisely work out what went where etc.

Can I ask where you found / bought the MPC instructions please ?

It was only after i'd completed it that i started to wonder about that whole rear-axle assembly too. The shutlines aren't great and it could benefit from it all moving back a bit to centre the wheels within the arches. I may have a go at trying to correct it before i move onto something else.When you dismantle, have a go a building your own MOC, it aint easy!!!

I was contemplating seeing if it would convert into a Lotus Esprit? Front-end is kind-of there already

Got the Space Shuttle Discovery yesterday. I’ve had a quick look inside the box, looks like a lot of bricks, and some nice silvered ones that I haven’t seen before.
It’s official, 42 is not too old for your mum to buy you Lego for your birthday!
Haha never too old. My Mum buys me Lego vouchers for Birthday and Christmas and I'm approaching 50!!It’s official, 42 is not too old for your mum to buy you Lego for your birthday!

Proper Technic, not a curve in sight!
I've the old Motorcycle & Sidecar from when I was a kid, dug it out of the garage at the start of the first lockdown for something to do, hooked on little Danish plastic bricks now like a crack addicit!
Having recently built the Lambo Sian, think I'd rather build the old Technic stuff. Very impressive set but I just didn't enjoy the build at all.
