This is an amazing addition to my grandson's collection. He loves F1 racing and any related Lego products. Very cool to say the least.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Interesting door design
on May 23, 2025
Posted by: Zuraquor
Verified Purchase:No
Was intrigued by the design of the doors until I actually had it to that point in the build. The doors don't close and stick up. I tried shifting them slightly but nothing corrected it. When one was closed enough to look good the other popped open. That was as far as I got. Disgusted I put it, as is, back in the box with whatever pieces were left over and tapped it shut. I doubt I will ever open it again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Difficult build, very delicate

Verified Purchase:No
Was challenging and fun to build, however that is where the enjoyment ended. Some features didn't work and parts kept falling off from weak clutch power. Only would recommend to put on shelf and never move.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There was a piece missing in my Lego set when I was trying to put it together

Decent - Not as satisfying
on November 10, 2025

Verified Purchase:No
After building nearly every of the Technic vehicles, I've been reserved on purchasing the Koenigsegg, partly due to the fact it was discounted at nearly every retailer which is a sign of poor sale. I could attribute this to every kid growing up with a Lamborghini Countach poster on their wall versus nobody knowing how to properly pronounce Koenigsegg. The build quality was poor for this set. The doors don't sit flat, and feel as though they have resistance against them, even though I bit the bullet and deconstructed the set because I surely thought I did something wrong. The boot (trunk) is extremely flimsy when open, and feels as though it's missing pieces to prevent it from "swaying". All in all, it's decent if the idea is build and display; but if you're looking for some of those unique build qualities found in other sets, you will not find them here.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Least Favorite Build
on January 4, 2026
Posted by: OzziesDogDad
Verified Purchase:No
Name the set and I have probably built it. I know the technic set are a ton of gears (and internal guts), I have built many of the formula one cars. This was just boring from beginning to end. Once it was finished, it was flimsy. It was my least favorite build ever. Unless you MUST do these car builds and have no other options, avoid this one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was my first foray into Technic and it was pretty good. It’s definitely a different experience than regular Lego. There are next to no regular bricks and you REALLY have to pay attention because backtracking moves is next to impossible. One thing I like is I’ve gotten to the point where I’m building so fast it feels hard to get my money’s worth and Technic is hard to build fast so he fun lasts longer. It took me about six hours to build this and I built R2D2 in half that time and it had a higher brick count. My only gripe is the steering isn’t working well and I can’t figure out how to fix it. I’m not sure if I will buy more Technic in the future but I would definitely recommend this to someone who wants to give it a shot.

It’s never fun when things don’t work the way they should. Make sure each part is positioned exactly as shown in the instructions and that everything is pressed together firmly (except the gears, which need a bit of space to turn). If you’d like a hand troubleshooting the build, feel free to reach out at LEGO.build/Service‑BV, we’re happy to help!
