silly quiz.

Just been working on my latest scale model.
There is 300 parts to the bulldozer tracks alone.there is a total of 700 parts in the kit.

That's a 1/35 scale model about 10" long.

Question.
How many parts are on a stock terrano out of the manufacturers?
Including cogs.spring.washers. wires.nuts.bolts. springs.

There's not many people that would know this.myself included.

My guess would be 44,000 parts.

Daft question I know.

for you

I love these type of questions although I have no idea

Let me just get my calculator

You need a few more parameters... Which car, e.g TD, TDi, LWB, sunroof, air con, side steps, roof bars?

Also how far are you breaking the car down... E.G. is the wheel 1 item, or a sub assembly of many parts.
If you break it down, tyre (a tyre is made up of many components), rim (Steel wheels are made up of 3 or more parts), valve stem (Rubber sleeve over brass insert in the valve stem for the valve to screw into), then the valve it's self is made of about 6 or so components.

I reckon it must run into Millions of individual pieces.
