I don't want a car, I never said I did, I only buy sets for the great parts
and then build my own thing. I just want to build cool vehicles with driven
steer axles. I also have no experience of the 8448, although I know I hate
the wheel trims.

I checked with T.J earlier and apparently the 8466 suffers terribly from
slop in the steering linkage, somthing the 8880 doesn't have a problem with.

The shuttle is boring, what can you actually do with it? It has little play
value. The shuttle is the over complex set, and my one suffered because all
it's drive belts slipped.
