⚙️🐛 The model That Always Should Have Driven
This compact car design has a distinctive place in automotive engineering.
Created to be the people's car, with an air-cooled boxer engine fitted to the rear, it subverted all the logic of the time and became one of the best-selling cars in history.
There was something almost alive about that compact engine, working silently behind the back seat, as if the car was thinking for itself.
Your model already reproduces every detail of this mechanic with admirable fidelity: the round air filter, the carburetor, the belt, the exhaust pipes revealed when opening the rear hatch. The aesthetics are intact.
What this kit delivers is the next logical step, what any engineer would do when faced with a stopped engine: get the model moving.
Prepare the chassis. The wheels will turn. ⚙️🐛
🕰️ The Engine That Crossed the Decades
The model's 4-cylinder air-cooled boxer engine was, in the 1960s, an elegant engineering solution to a real problem: how to build a cheap, reliable, and easy-to-maintain car.
Positioned at the rear of the vehicle, it eliminated the need for a front radiator, reduced weight on the front axle and simplified transmission.
It was, in short, an engine designed with the mind of someone who needed the car to simply work.
The replica honors this legacy with stunning aesthetic fidelity. But a stalled engine is only half the story.
The engine kit exists to complete the equation: transmit real torque to the wheels and transform the replica into a machine that responds to commands, exactly as the original did on the roads of the 60s.
🔧 Kit Details
⚙️ Electric motor: M (medium) engine from the Power Functions line, installed in the lower part of the chassis or integrated into the front axle to drive the wheels with controlled and silent torque.
📡 Receiver: Power Functions Receiver included, responsible for receiving the control signal and activating the motor with immediate response. Installation is discreet and does not interfere with the model's silhouette.
🔋 Battery box: Battery Box Power Functions included, accommodated in the lower part of the body to distribute weight evenly and keep the model's center of gravity stable during movement.
🏗️ Rear boxer engine: the original visual set of the hatch, with air filter, carburetor, belt and exhaust pipes, remains intact as an aesthetic detail. The engine is added without compromising any visual element already built.
🪛 Compatible installation: the kit was specifically designed for the model 10252, with fittings that take advantage of the chassis' native fixing points without the need for permanent structural modifications.
🏆 Reasons to Take It Home
🏆 From the shop window to the track: the assembled the model is already impressive standing still. In motion, with the controller in your hand and the wheels turning, it becomes a collectible object with another dimension of interaction.
🎯 Surgical fitting: each component was chosen for the specific the model. No adaptations, no workarounds. Installation preserves the aesthetic integrity of the original model.
🔍 Boxer engine visually intact: the aesthetic soul of the model, the rear mechanical assembly revealed by the hatch, remains exactly as it was assembled. The motorization works in parallel, not in substitution.
✨ No level of electronics required: if you own your model, you install this kit. The fittings follow the construction logic you already know, with technical support available in the included manual.
📸 Photogenic in motion: a model walking on a table, recorded on video or photo, has an immediate visual appeal. It's the type of content that speaks for itself.
🎁 The missing upgrade: you dedicated hours to assembling every detail of the 10252. This kit is recognition that engineering deserved to move.
The boxer engine is already at the rear. The receiver is ready. Now you just have to press the button and let the model go. ⚙️🐛

Stressed?
It’s proven that building model cars helps relieve stress and anxiety.
Focusing on the pieces and the building process calms the mind and brings a sense of tranquility.
Self-Therapy
According to psychologist Sabrina Amaral, we all have an “inner wise self.”
Before feeling overwhelmed by life or work, she recommends using tools that help us connect with it — such as Self-Therapy, a technique inspired by the Socratic method.
It encourages deep self-reflection, helping a person find their own answers through a series of thoughtful questions.
Focus
Building model sets requires attention to detail.
This activity also helps improve concentration and focus, especially for people who struggle with attention difficulties or ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).
Creativity
Building model sets can be a way to express emotions and feelings nonverbally.
The creations may reflect the builder’s emotional state and provide a healthy way to process difficult experiences.
Self-Esteem
Completing a model car can bring a deep sense of accomplishment and pride.
This helps boost self-esteem and confidence, especially for those who face challenges or difficulties in other areas of life.
