Well done on your live build Sariel - less than 7 hours!! 👍 👍 👍
LEGO plz just make the hamster sariel designed
You know your awesome when Lego gives props 😊 I personally am too excited for the dieselnaut!
damn this is one awesome set, its cool cuz I made an almost identical engine in my porsche and utillised the same rear suspension trick😅🖒
same front suspension isue as in the porsche btw
LEGO does this... ACTUALLY have 16 gears? O.o HOW???
23:46 “It’s turning radius would put the Titanic to shame,” this is why I love this channel.
25:06 I rest my case.
Blue Waffles iii
Very funny!
Blue Waffles I see a bit of a problem with the turning test, when Sariel turned the wheel to the max then pushed the model, the front wheels immediately lashed back and made the turning way wider
Doesn't that mean that it turns better than the titanic? Or is this ironic and I'm just retarded?
The external tool is ment to simulate the second key which you need for the original car to go on Top Speed of 463 km/h. And it can be stored under the hood.
Martin Lierk , yes you are right! I totally forgot about that.
Not to mention, that second key hides in the driver's side sill, right next to the seat. The latest Carfection video has all kinds of sweet details about the Chiron!!
New Gearbox parts ! I wasn't expecting that ! I'll build a ton more gearboxes then !
Would love to see the complex lines of the Mclaren P1 interpreted by lego
MattL600's Technic I don’t think they could do it well unless they chose to use flex axles instead of panels like the Chiron does
Probably won't look good but I would want to see it since the p1 is my dream car
MattL600's Technic
How about the 2017 ford GT?
Very geometrical car, not many complex shapes
Well, not TLG, but I think this would put them to shame. :)

It isn’t a technic set without gaps 😂
Amen brother!
Joseph G Amen
Typical person I feel the Porsche was better on less gaps
Typical person bu ıncllşi
These skeletal cars has its own charms
Technic is the one rabbit hole of Lego that I have yet to dive into. It's truly fascinating to see the machines people like you come up with.
great LEGO model
This is without question, the most thorough review on UA-cam...for anything. Thank you
I'm early, let's make a joke:
PF 2.0
tamas lapsanszki good one
tamas lapsanszki 😊
I DONT GET IT
It's bluetooth based, and the receiver is integrated into the BB. But is uses new plugs, and the power and control unit only has 2 ports, so one can only insert/control 2 motors. Also we do not have backwards compatibility with PF 1.0 (and by extension, 9V)
After all the hype and high expectations, PF 2.0 turned out not to be more than a weaker Sbrick or BuWizz. That's why i called it a joke
tamas lapsanszki you predicted everything perfectly wtf
Paused the video at 14:14 and tried to figure out, why you circled that little grey pin. Than realised that's only a rubber band :D
Lmao
Loved the The Room / Disaster Artist reference!
Excellent work Sariel, all those Dark Blue parts.... People can now build 41999 just from parts.
Dear Sariel,
Panels 5 and 6 appears in dark blue in 41999 set (crawler limited edition), You showed them in "pieces in new colours" :)
Piotr Muszel That dark blue 3X5L liftarm too.
I have this set for about half a year. When I finished it, the front suspension didn't work at all and I had ZERO building errors. Now, after sitting on a shelf for so long, the rear suspension has got so stiff that it doesn't work either.Lol. As these sets get older, their functions start working poorly or not work at all. But for display, both the Bugatti and the Porsche are amazing. I don't regret buying them although they should be cheaper. I can't wait to see the Lamborghini they are gonna release in the summer and someone who sees this comment 😂.
Thanks again for another fantastic review. Your detailed reviews that highlight both the good and bad really help with the decision process...after all spending 360 Eur on a Lego set should not be taken lightly. I look forward to your review of 42082. I will decide after that where my money is going on my big Technic set this year.
You got this video out quickly 😆
WAYYYYYYY too expensive, considering.
Dolovo_Gaming I get that per piece, but it doesn't feel worth the money as a display piece. Its lack of power functions feels cheap considering the price too. But I will admit, it's a lovely set to buy if you don't mind the investment.
I get where you are coming from, for less money you could get 42055 wich has more pieces. And it has power functions.
Dolovo_Gaming yeah...
Pretty much - The bucket excavator is a better display piece too.
Catalyst, don’t forget Bugatti’s commission for using their branding.
Catalyst In the US, it’s not that bad; $350
Now that +LEGO has attempted the W16, time for them to do an RX-7 and try a minature rotary engine
I really REALLY love the room reference at the end
Your hard work on this video does justice to the Lego teams hardwork on the Chiron project
Relieved to see there are spare/replacement pieces. I finished 1 box 1 and there were spare pieces and I have been assuming I missed putting them on.
All those blue panels look real nice for mecha builds, and holy shit those orange rotary catches will be perfect for automatic transmissions.
I used to hate the Chiron but soon I learned to love it
Ordered mine, can’t wait !, it will sit very nicely next to the Porsche
At first I thought "16+R" was a typo. It's incredible that they could fit that many speeds into a reasonably compact package like that! Especially given the last model had only 4+R.
I have been waiting for the day that we see more gears with the clutch in them. Also those new rotary catch rings are an cool introduction that I never thought we needed!
It's 8 + R, as explained in the video description.
These New Rotary changeover catch rings, will work perfectly with my micro 90° Steppers ;)
Can't wait to see what kind of crazy things you will be able to make with it!
Simyo Paris Oh yeah !!! I have a ton of new ideas ! This is surely going to be a very fun period of time !
& Thank You, fellow ^^ I appreciate your support like no other ;)
Lego Technic Mastery I am most excited for that new blue gear, because you can build gearboxes with only two shafts
Atte Räisänen This is soooo cool ! ^^
Are you gonne buy the whole set, or are you gonne buy the parts seperatly?
Or both off course.
Bionicle 1x3 Tooth with Axle Hole was released previously in dark azure in set 71308 "Tahu Uniter of Fire" from BIONICLE.
Oh, hi mark.
best reference
*throws spoon*
The new pieces are very nice
The only good thing about these supercars are the tire rims, which are great for MOCs, but u could use the 4*6 angle beam instead.
That transmission is worth learning from, but it's just two simple 4 speed gearboxes put together, making it a 4*4 transmission.
Thanks for providing these awesome reviews! You really influence my decisions on which sets to get.
Lego needs to do either a Sauber C9 or a Ferrari P4 as their next technic set. I would really like to see how they would do the both of those.
I'm an extremely avid car enthusiast, but I've never been a huge fan of the Veyron or Chiron. I own 42056 and it's really tempting to buy this and put it next to the Porsche...
You could argue that front suspension sag is part of the design. In its sagged position the ride hight looks like the real thing. But this car can lift it's front end to clear speed bumps and such.
Larry House that was the most disappointing part . Guess we will have to redesign the suspension like we had to do to the Porsche
"Sariel" this is the way a review should be done!!!! "Sariel" twuj sposob na robiene "reviews" jest standardem! DZIEKI "Thank you" i Pozdro!!!!!!
Front suspension issue is matter of spring stiffness. The same problem I have with Arocs - when on display it goes low after some time. This is why I keep it on display with extra support behind the wheels. It is just few extra pieces connected to a chassis.
It’s as awesome as f***.Cuz it opens the door of the Lego moc era and it marks a boom era of the Lego brand
that "tool" you use to operate the wing is supposed to be the key to unlock all of the power of the Bugatti chiron, and in the real thing is kept in the side of the door on the driver side
here is a link for the picture

My 2cents.
Currently building this model after much procrastination, and took notice of the front suspension comment you made, a simple fix is below.
The cars front suspension will hold up under it's own weight, it's a minor design fault by Lego, I swapped the blue triple pins where the control arms mount to the frame, for the cream colored triple pins. I have a smooth flowing front end that returns under it's own effort.
Your hamster there has quite a sense of humor, lol
Dude 7 hours it took to build mine was 2 days
jessica magnolia 48 hours?
It would probably take me a week
I cant wait to get my hands on this set. I got the porsche 911 gt3 rs last year for my birthday and I think next to this it will look impressive
If lego made a miniature version of this I would absolutely buy it
Terrific video Sariel, thank you.
I bought this today. I enjoyed building the Porsche (12.5 hours for me. But I was drinking).
One of the Who Will Like This Set you left out was "People who like building complicated Technic" (42055 notwithstanding - no, thank you).
I'm looking forward to a few evenings with this model (ahem).
In a nutshell:
Gaps, long, sturdy, 16, and suspension.
I instantly recognized and started laughing at the "The Room" reference
Sariel, i've got an important question. Can you keep the spoiler in the upright position when removing the key? - does it fall back down, or can you keep it in the two positions when leaving it out for display? In addition, could you explain how the spoiler mechanicals work?
yes it stays in the upright position.
d1p70 thanks. Now i'd just like to know how the mechanism works
Badams Or Pista
obviously you can keep it up
The transmission is 8 speed I remember , according to the official designer video
@koot I think is one of 2 and another one of 4,making it 8
For that price, the number of gaps is massive and no functions kills the joy and playability... eh this is just a prop to stand on the shelf and gather dust.
I both love and hate the undercarriage of this model...I like seeing all the gears the back is rather disappointing in that aspect...but it does make it look cleaner
I hate the Chiron because of its design, but the lego company really did well on this set, if I had the money I'd purchase it
Thank god they added all the Bugatti stickers to the model, from some angles it doesnt look like the Chiron at all but like a limousine xD
Playability 3 stars?
- no hog steering
- it's hard to reach the steering wheel
- you can't really see the difference between the gears
- the doors are flimsy
- you can only move the spoiler by pushing an axle into the fender
In fact the function which is the most fun to play with is the opening of the front hood. Since LEGO is sponsoring your sets, your reviews got way to positive.
After building this set, I notice same saggy front suspensions as yours. I don’t think it’s part of our error.
Awesome video, and thumbs up for the hamster!
I personally own this set and I have a myth to bust about the Chiron's transmission.
On the instructions and in actual, it has 2 rings on the right and 2 rings on the left. The left rings with the blue gears are for 4 small speeds and the right rings controls the larger speed range, so the transmission is a 4*4=16 speeds.
But upon closer examination, I found that the 2 rings on the right have only 2 speeds i
n effect, so it is actually an 8 speed transmission.
The reverse gear is outside the transmission, so the Chiron has, in total, 8+R speeds.
I feel like I have to ask this; What's your favourite liscensed technic set of all time? So Volvo, Mack, etc?
😃This is a real MUST HAVE😀
21:27
That's called a Dropped axle
Used for low floor vehicle
Ex, A Low floor bus has a Dropped front axle for lowest possible floor height and a normal rear axle connected to rear engine.
I have the suspension issue figured out! When I disconnected the shock absorbers both from the front and rear wheels, the suspension arm was still quite stiff because stiff pins were used rather than axles, I moved the arm up and down and it was quite stiff anyway, and the stiffness of the pins prevents the shock absorbers from stretching back up once pushed down
Edit: it’s not because the weight is too much for the springs. Check out my video on my channel to see my solution , I adjusted the suspension and took away the stiffness and the suspension is very responsive and bouncy now
You have a build issue with your front shocks. You have the bottoms mounted one stud inboard from what the build instructions show. I made a similar mistake when building my version. This is the cause of the poor function of the front shocks.
Nostalgia. I love the old school music that u used on some of ur older reviews and the review style itself. Good job sariel.
Guys, 3 quick questions, since I finished the build, and everything works, but I don't want to break anything:
1. in Drive, is the car by default in neutral gear, or in first gear?
2. If the car is in first gear, how many times can you actually up shift?
3. Once you reach at the end of the gears, so say you changed form 7th gear to 8th gear, and 8th gear is the last, for example, what happens if you try to change up again? Do you go back to first gear, or do you break something?
1. There is no neutral gear.
2. Endlessly. It's a sequential transmission.
3. You go back to first gear, because it's a sequential transmission.
19:07 the gaps is what makes Lego, technic
Spoken from the heart of a true Lego fan 👏🏿
I NEED THIS SET... but I have this Ferrari F40 that I broke apart and haven't been touching it since last year
YOU ACTUALLY HAVE NO IDEA HOW BAD I NEED (want) THIS LEGO SET!!!! UGGGG
Great A for effort, execution however is quite bad compared to fanmade models
Slimy One take a visit to eurobricks, clearly you haven't been there yet
Lorenzo H can someone explain to me what "8 speed" or "16 speed" means?
Lorenzo H Do you mean by how much the speed coming out of the "motor" is multiplied in the wheel rotation?
Look at this one by Lachlan Cameron: ua-cam.com/video/wcSdxECOGs4/v-deo.html
Full rc, shifts gears and most importantly, no gaps in bodywork
Slimy One yeah I suppose so
i like the look of the backside/ roof/ sides/ interior, but i think the front has way too many gaps and holes. for instance i noticed you can easily see the luggage when the hood is closed from certain angles
Sorry if I'm the only one saying this, but this set is H I D E O U S (the gearbox is impressive tho)
Really hoping Lego eventually use these rims, or rims like them, with a properly placed pivot point more, and in sets other than just super-premium ones.
This set looks stunning, I’m gonna try and get it. I may not be able to afford it right now, but I’ll use birthday and Christmas money and add it to what I already have :D
Wow. 7 hours is impressive. I've been building for 10 hours at least and am still only half way through the 3rd box. Today was the 5th day working on it for me, lol. So yeah, it's taking a while ....
6 hours 20 minutes on my second attempt.
Sariel's LEGO® Workshop wow, that's probably a record!
Sariel's LEGO® Workshop why did you build it twice though?
Because LEGO asked me to: ua-cam.com/video/bBNLskdewBM/v-deo.html
Lots of things to love here, but one thing I hate is that those large wheel arches make the wheels look too small. gahhh
oh god, it took me a day to get through two boxes, just because of the detailed directions
Nice review, thanks for the time you put in during this busy part of your life. Nice model, think it would look good sitting on a shelf from a distance
I have noticed a slight misprint in the first instruction book at step 40. When it tells you too X2 build the rear suspension set up. But from the right and left side there is one piece that must be put into a different position shown in step 41. It's right by the disc brake and has to do with the connection at the bottom of the suspension spring.
Lego is now so colorful!!
Thanks for making an amazingly detailed video, esp. for those of us unable to buy this beauty
Was that a reference to The Room? Wild!
Now tell me, Mr. Sariel - do you think it would be possible to modify the rear spoiler so it pops out after you choose the highest gear on the gearbox? Because that would be freaking cool...
That could be tricky but not impossible.
Beautiful I would love to see either a Hennessey venom or Bugatti veyron
Block Dude kind, clo messed finding, nice choose 🎵ciose sciir with beaches pin coin with so certificate of meticulous 😩
The venom all the way
The 1x3 tooth with axle hole was introduced in dark azure in a bionicle set a couple years ago
2 things I really think they could have done better: body work above the front lights, the hood.
it just needs to be a bit more pointy and closed, they did awsome work at the back but the front has too many gaps
Awesome puzzle box
It's basically the Porsche (42056) but more polished, for example, the interior looks much better.
I have the lego technic porsche and i love it, but this set is amazingly cool
Awesome! I really want it but I just can't afford the money :(
I would say the dedicated tool looks a lot like the superspeed key, which allowed the veyron to change the rear spoiler behaviour so it reached higher speed with less downforce. I thought they got rid of this in the chiron, but anyway its a cool trick to actually make a tool that remember you this :)
I would have loved to see the spoiler activate whenever the wheels are spinning, still a great display model tho
Hi Sariel,
i kinda feel disappointed and slightly let down by your review. I respect the work you put into it. A half hour review sure takes time, when you discuss your points in great detail. So props to you for that. I have to say tho that I expected an unbiased review like your take on the porsche, however i do have the impression that you reviewed the bugatti in favor of Lego. Let me explain: I’m not saying that this is a bad set and that i expected you to rip it apart. This is not the case here, but you have left so many things untouched! For example, i thought that you would explain the “gap-topic” more. That you would point out all the gaps that are crucial to the looks of this car like those all over the hood. On the porsche you have shown us all the flimsy bits, but didn’t mention them here at all. Are there really none? I don’t think so. You didn’t share your own personal opinion on the c-curve outside of the car. You have not shared your thoughts on the sticker solution on the doors. You have ignored the solution of the side mirrors, build from simple panels. You commented on them in your Porsche review. But now it seems you have given up on them ever changing this design. There was no mention of the missing fuelcap in your Video. You have not delved in to the interiour like you did with the porsche, although this time around it is so much more interesting! You had a really detailed view on it in your porsche review. I also hoped for a true comparison with its real life version. Sure you pointed out some details, but you didn’t mention the fact that lego chose the wrong colors: In the real life version of the car the color black is only used on the grids. In the model however, they have used it on the whole backside and on the front fender! Speaking of colours, you didn’t even mention the fact that they used light bluish grey instead of silver pieces. It always was a part of your reviews! You yourself said in a reply to a comment on your Mack Truck review, that you will name even the smallest mistakes, because if you don’t, tlg won’t see that there is any reason to get better.
Now i don’t know why you reviewed it the way you did, maybe you didn’t have enough time with all that’s going on, but that is not the way i know you Sariel. This was not an unbiased review like normally. You didn’t critizise the set enough, instead you were praising it slightly too much. Like the whole spoiler thing. Did we really need all these shots of you playing with it? I know it’s great and all but come on.
Some of my examples may be considered nitpicking... but that’s what you do! Normally You review everything in great detail. What happened?
I also should add that i don’t own this set yet, i only spent hours looking at pictures.
Overall i agree with what you said and respect your work, but i do have the impression that this is an incomplete review. I’d love to hear your take on this. Thank you.
@everybody: What is your opinion? Am i being too harsh? Am i expecting too much? Or do you share my views?
I absolutely agree with you on every point, and imo it's the Porsche set 2.0: Extremely hyped up, extremely expensive and extremely disappointing.
ill probably wait for lepin to copy it instead of paying 5 times as much for little quality difference 🙃
Honestly, don't do that, that does more harm then good. I'd rather wait, till the specific pieces get cheaper on Bricklink, and then buy the pieces separately. Yes, it's quite some effort, but it's a lot cheaper, than buying the set (if you manage your orders right).
You're not being harsh, you are telling the truth. And btw, did we really need a fake spoiler opened by an external key? Why make new driving extensions and switched if the old ones worked fine?
IMHO Technic is becoming a shelf-model production line. Stupidly overpriced sets, badly realised designs and mechanics and using just popular stuff to hype people and attrack attention around it.
Would you pay 370€ for 3kg of ABS? I bet you wouldnt. Neither you should fo it on this
Bartelas Greenleaf I agree with you completely; this set has maaaaany drawbacks, first being the price, second the lack of interesting functions. The new gearbox pieces are cool, but I'll buy some via Bricklink separately, saving 320EUR easy (I expect them to be really pricey). The spoiler thing is NOT a mechanical mastery - it's in fact a shame, because a lever incorporated in the dashboard should be used instead of this strange keyish thingy.
You can store the key in front of the shot-gun seat under the dashboard
2016- Porsche (VAG)
2018- Bugatti (VAG)
2020- Lamborghini (VAG) ???
(Please LEGO, make the Aventador :D )
Many people wanted a Jesko,i dunno
you can put the wing tool under the front bonnet.. it fits fine and thats where mine is at
It's kinda loose in there.
a little bit but at least its with the model and not somewhere else
Do you think it would be possible to squeeze power functions in the cabin to make it remote control? The drivetrain and steering is already there, so that's why i thought of it.
It will look ugly if it's visible in the cabin.
I'm waiting for this set to arrive but come on lego 350 and still stickers
You need to improve your sticker skills :) Thanks for such great in-depth review Sariel.
Oh man, but as a college student about to set out job hunting where would I find the time...
Hi Paul, I really like this video and the speedbuild. Though I got to say that even though the turning radius might indeed be a bit low, whenever you pushed it the wheels moved back a bit. Ah well, that's all I had to say, good job!
The mobile crane seems like a better buy. I just like the technic cranes.
They didn't make a new piece to make the pistons have a bit different timing? 4 of the pistons in a W16 engine firing at the same time is not realistic.
Also, disappointing that they didn't fix some of the problems the Porsche had, like the steering wheel and mirrors.
Saktuscactus my sentiments exactly
it wasnt hard to make a hand of God system in the porsche, hope it wont be to hard in this set either
douwe ten dam Luckily, we don't have to modify the transmission like on the Porsche.
