LEGO Speed Champions 1985 Audi Sport Quattro S1 76897 Toy Cars for Kids Building Kit Featuring Driver Minifigure (250 Pieces)

One more in our collection, big thumb up

Speed champ always good

Cheap fun. Great addition to my fireplace mantle.

The old 6-wide Speed Champions sets always looked a bit too narrow, the 2 extra studs in the sets this year fix up the proportions and end up with cars that look a lot more like their real-life counterparts. As a rally fan I got this first, but will probably pick up more of the 8-wide sets too.

got as a gift for my boyfriend, and we had so much fun putting it together. he loved even more that they were based off of real cars

No complains from the kid

The Audi Quattro S1 was a revolution to rallying back in the mid 80s. It was the first four wheel drive car in rallying and as such it obliterated the field for a number of years. This particular one, the 1985 Quattro S1 is still the most powerful rally car ever built with a 0-60 of just 3.1 seconds and in excess of 500 horsepower (although listed at only 470hp). As such this is a great vehicle for lego to base a design on. At 250 pieces, this isnt the largest lego set ever and the built car comes in at around 6 inches long by 2 inches high by just over 2 inches wide. The instructions are easy to follow and it only took me around 2 hours to put the whole car together. It also comes with a driver figurine although Im surprised lego didnt two figures and rally usually has a co-driver as well. From a distance you can tell instantly what that its a rally Audi Quattro, up close however it does look like a lego set. This set fits in nicely with legos speed champions series and with its low cost it makes a great addition to any lego enthusiasts collection. Even if you are not a lego enthusiast, its great fun putting it together and seeing the finished product.

As my title says, the box was damaged and some pieces were loose in the box. Hoping everything is all there when it gets out together

Our LEGO fanatic grandson, still just 5, had a lot of fun building this set. It took about two hours and the build was just challenging enough to keep him interested and eager to keep going. He loved the number and quality of the stickers included for decorating the car. The end result definitely is a quality repro of this famous race car, and since the wheels turn really well, he can play with it as a race car. Sometimes he does this in the second floor hallway so the car careens off the wall and hurtles down the stairs. Of course, some pieces fall off, but he has an interesting attitude— when parts fall off, he gets to rebuild the car. I’d call that LEGO love.

My son loves these Lego cars. The build is not difficult, but you get a relatively sturdy completed product that you can play with on the floors, which he loves to do still even at his age. This one is a great build, nice and brightly colored, nice little Audi details. Price is under the 10 bucks per hundred pieces I like to see their sets at, which is nice. Far too often theres a tax when you get real company brands like this involved with a Lego set that jump the price up more than it should. Great set for anyone who is a fan of the racing cars and Lego.
