Durability - None

The car is a "successor" to the here many times rated red Lightning McQueen. The change probably refers only to the body, which now comes in sleek red metallic therefore. The car looks great and our six year old daughter loved Cars Crazy dearly. The control she managed very well after a short time and she had a lot of fun with "your" Lightning.
Of course you have to draw before the first start, the wire antenna of the car and the remote control with the supplied plastic tubes to ensure coverage. And yes, if you get too strong against these tubes, then they break and to build them again (only slightly shorter).

However, the technique of this successor seems to be "well-known" the:
- Remote control is not proportional, only on / off (or 2 forward speeds, which we expected)
- While is directed, only the slower speed is available (not bad, but funny)
- While is steered, the steering is sometimes short on "straight" and you go "shaped" curves (already irritating, radio interference?)
- After a day the first, slower speed was no longer available (annoying, but not a reason for return yet))
- After nearly two months of occasional and careful use under supervision (also outside, with uphill shares), the car drives as good as no longer forward: While the motor rotates, but so slip at the slightest resistance by a kind of slip clutch and the car moves barely and howls Just imagine him (now asks himself the daughter to exchange).

It's really a pity that you do not get remote-controlled cars that are slightly built solid and last longer. We now have a go the Exchange, if the successor so "long" holding back, then was it unfortunately with "Cars" by Dickie.
