The 4 Versions of the Porsche 911

" This is a great build especially for those who don’t like stickers all the required parts are pre printed so no stickers. The instruction manual is quit cool printed on black pages which work well as most of the parts are in white, it also as bits about the car such as the Targa could have been named the Flori. Only found one small error in the manual on step 12 of the Turbo build shows the printed window being placed next to the black 1x1 bricks should be placed next to the 1x1 white bricks at the other end of the 1x8 plate otherwise the manual is very easy to follow. There are some new pieces besides the new body panels there are some 2x4 tiles with rounded corners and some 1x1 2/3 angled plates I’ve not used before, also there are 2 sets of wheel hubs one set of black and one set of silver as used for the Ford Mustang. After you finish building the contents of bag 7 you have a chose to use either bags 8 and 9 to build the Turbo version of the car or bags 8 and 10 to build the Targa version of the car, whichever one you decide to build you will end up with one bag of parts not used and this is where the manual ends. Alternatively you can combine bags 8,9 and 10 to build 2 further models the Classic none Turbo 911 or the Turbo Targa as demonstrated by Mike Psiaki the designer, either way I have uploaded images of all 4 different styles so you can choose which one you would prefer to build.

Latest iPhone or iPad not required

" Using a 10 year old laptop updated to windows 10 and a Bluetooth 4.0 USB dongle, works fine with the new Mindstorms software. The programme supports either the Xbox or PlayStation 4 controller for use with the M.V.P. driving challenges, which makes it much easier to control than with a phone or tablet. To show it's versatility, have built the colour sorter from the EV3 set, see uploaded image. This new set as some great potential and I hope Lego keep supporting it. "

Add Power Functions

" Nice build added a motor to turn the drum and was easy to do, replace the Gear shift ring with a M-Motor #8883 and fit a battery box #8881 to the back of the cab. This requires moving the steering inside the cab out of the way of the battery box see posted images. "

Powered up or Power functions

" This is a good build and I hope Lego add to the series with some more classic trains like the Flying Scotsman. If you are adding the Power up motor #88013 and you use it with the Train Remote control #88010, you will find you have to keep your thumb on the plus button otherwise the motor will stop going. You can add the Power Functions L-motor #88003 but this will require a roof modification to add the IR receiver but this can be done see posted images, with this modification the train works as normal and you can vary the trains speed. Both motors seem to give the same speed output. "
