So perhaps there really are hydraulics, and they have a reasonable

I don't know, but reading the Dutch text (no, I don't speak Dutch), I
get the impression that the hydraulic cylinder is used to raise the
"roof" of the vehicle.  Just like the 8448 "Supercar", and like the

lets hope I'm wrong here!

But it also looks as though we're due for a rain of those silly
decorative plates that dominate the "stuporcar". Arrgh.

I haven't actually had them in my fingers yet, but I actually like them!
Send them to me if you dislike them!  ;-)
