The Haynes Internal Combustion Engine was featured in the Irish Times Motoring yesterday. While we're hesitant to mention the 'Christmas' word in October, this is truly a brilliant present.
Whether you're an adult who wants to learn more about how an engine works, a parent looking to show your kids or just a petrol head who wants a bit of a challenge, the Haynes Build Your Own Engine is the best invention since mechano. It allows you to build a four stroke engine from scratch. The Haynes Engine includes light and sound features, spark plugs that actually function and light up, moving pistons and a fan belt. It's the type of thing you can imagine sitting down with/without the kids (ten year old upwards) to get stuck into on Christmas day, munching on the Roses with a couple of beers (not the kids obviously) - the perfect way for a grown man to relive the old feeling of Christmas past.
The Irish Times called it the "ultimate gift for a budding petrolhead". Mick in here built it a few months ago - Proud as punch he was! So if you're brave enough to take the Haynes Build Your Own Engine Challenge, GET BUILDING…
