Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- Pros
Smooth and consistent paint job on the outside
Nice rims with brake disc and callipers
Full working suspension and good engine detail
Nice opening mess grills and you can see the radiator
Nice exhaust pipes and underneath details
Good interior details but nothing exciting
Reasonable light details but could have done better at the front headlight
Full opening parts (trunk, doors, engine bay and rear spoiler)
Cons
Paint work is terrible in all the hidden area and all chipping off by itself with slightest touch (not the quality that I am looking for something that cost over £200)
Big doors gap on the front and no carpet on the floor in the cabin.
Overall about 5 out of 10. Weight about 750g and paid for about £180 from UK seller on eBay. Personally I think Auto Art models are over priced and it is clear that they cut cost wherever possible which is not what I like. If you owned Keng Fai or LCD or Kyosho in Diecast or even Almost Real, you will know that they are better models and you get more for your money. The whole car feel so light and flimsy. Feel very cheap and feel like a kid play toy. I will NEVER EVER buy Auto Art again.

It's recommended to buy in a store that accepts returns as you encounter some quality issues. In this Lambo there are too many for the price they claim. Autoart cars are not as good for their price as they were in the past, especially regarding quality. The released fine Diablo recently but not their every model represents that high level of craftsmanship.
I think you should weight it again cuz I think the front touched the table so it might affect the actual weight of the whole model
👍👍👍
Autoart messed up with this model. The newly upgraded version looks a bit better ( especially the headlights) but, still it has many flaws. I've got two composite models ( Mercedes 6x6 and Aventador SVJ ) but both of them are not on display as of now. I share your opinion, in general, about the new Autoart policy. If you want, check out my collection.
Will do and thanks
Hey man, is this one discast or plastic?
Plastic. All Auto Art are. Not solid diecast anymore.
As a warning I am going to be very critical in this comment. First, considering you bought it on Ebay it may be a older model and newer ones may have improvements such as carpet or said headlight detail. Second judging an entire company with a wide variety of many cars is completely foolish due to possible factory defects due to technological errors, or simply other models being much better. For example an AutoArt Koenigsegg Regera has some of the best engine detail I have seen in any company. That leads to the next subject I have to talk about which is the fact there might not be much to see in a real Lamborghini Urus engine bay. Also I noticed that you said V12, which is completely random of me to note but I feel it must be said that it has a V8 engine similar to Audi's performance SUVs. Overall you are basically foolishly determining whether a company is good based on one car and if you look at AutoArt's car selection it consists of mainly high performance cars with a smaller size. This may mean that if this is an early release the company might not have completely adjusted to building SUV models rather than sports car models. As for the weight, it may feel cheap to you due to being light, but if it were heavy it would obviously be made of diecast, which in production is much harder to manipulate and create smooth details from and does not allow paint to stick smoothly causing dimples in the paint (Maisto 1/18 models are perfect examples for this). If AutoArt did manage to make it out of diecast it would likely weigh much more possibly causing more shipping damage due to the box giving way under the weight easier considering it is a large representation. So if you do buy another AutoArt, which you probably should buy one from a website that guarantees it being brand new like amazon or other major sites and maybe watch reviews on the same car and decide what you wasn't as far as car brand or type, and the detail you want, for example, if you want engine detail or a removable roof, or unique doors, you could get any new AutoArt Koenigesegg model which has all of the above, if you aren't as much into that they have a massive variety of other new cars including new SUVs and luxury cars which do not have the problems you have found disregarding weight which should not even be a concern considering diecast would look much worse. Please do not take any offense from this I am just trying to be respectfully critical and maybe provide advice if you find any in this comment.
Quick note: the hatch not staying open is a sign of older age and overuse (AutoArt models are not meant to be toyed with/the main cause of opening parts becoming loose). Also now that I think about it; say you drop a model car, which will take more paint and body damage; the heavy diecast model with lots of momentum, or the lightweight "cheap feeling" composite model with less momentum. Let me know what your opinion is on that.
First of all I have seen many other Auto Art model. A friend of mine collect a lot of them. I don't base on 1 car to judge the company and i have more model than you for sure. Koenigsegg are just OK. Better than most but not the best I have seen. Have you seen LCD Pagani Huayra or Zonda? Half the price of your Koenigsegg
Paint quality is good you said. Did you even see my video in detail. Paints are pealing off fresh out the box. Of course Maisto are £18. Not £180 mate and you are expected some flaw and can't compare. There are many diecast models on my channel are reasonable price, all diecast with opening parts. Look at the end of the day, if you are sucker for AA, go for it but there are many people on social media who agree with me.
@Million-Diecast. it has nothing to do old age. I have Almost Real Maybach and boot was loose. Do you think people who buy these models are kids and like to play with them? 😆 🤣 😂 Who would drop these models?
I am not sure what kind of planet you are from. Diecast cars are heavy and can damage during shipping? What a joke. I ordered diecast figure and model from hundred of miles from China, Hong Kong to UK, never have any problem.
