About this product

Seeing exactly how an engine works, watching pistons pump and parts move in perfect sync, is deeply satisfying. The Machine Works V8 Petrol Engine brings that mechanical magic to your worktop with a fully functional, motorised model that doesn't just sit there looking pretty - it fires up with realistic V8 sound and illuminating spark plugs that mimic the real thing. Over 250 pieces wait to be assembled into a working replica of a V8 car engine, simplified but still authentic enough to teach you how it all fits together.

The transparent engine casing reveals the inner workings as the motor runs, so you can watch every component doing its job. A step-by-step instruction manual guides you through the build and shares interesting facts about V8 engines along the way. It's ideal for budding engineers, car enthusiasts aged 10 and over, or anyone who loves a hands-on project that ends with something genuinely impressive. Requires 3 x AA batteries to bring it to life.

  • Size H23, W25, D30cm.
