Advantages: True to scale, very detailed, fun to drive
Disadvantages: Tires sometimes difficult to install, no front "crash bumper"

...in that it isn't blindingly fast and has no proportional speed or steering. Turns are either full left or full right and throttle or forward/reverse motion is either OFF or FULL POWER. The drifting tires come with an included wheel wrench that is necessary to remove and install the tires. It is easy to remove the tires with the wrench but difficult to turn the hubcaps to the locked position. I actually damaged one of my wheels' locking tabs by applying too much force when locking the hubcap/wheel on. I wish Nikko had made this feature easier.... Read review

...department stores, the underground stores/street(shops next to tube/train station) are also a good choice for shopping. Next to the shopping area is the famous Kabukicho, the equivalent of the red light district of Amsterdam. Another sushi dinner in the evening ended the day. Day 5: We joined a day tour for the day to Nikko,the resting place of Tokugawa, the first shogun of Japan. The "Shrines and Temples of Nikko" refer to the Toshogu and Futarasan-jinja shrines and the Rinnoji temple as well as their surroundings and it's one of the world heritage sites in Japan.

...Although I have been to the Philippines before, it is the first time I have stayed here and it was for only one night. My wife has stayed here before when her flight to the UK was cancelled and the airline put her up here for free. We elected to stay here on our first night in the Philippines because of the location; we know the area very well, and the cost. The Travel agent we used – Philippine Island Connections, had offered us the hotel as part of our flight plans. So where is it? The Dusit Makati, also known as the Dusit Hotel Nikko, is an award winning hotel owned by the Thailand based Dusit hotels and resorts chain. Situated on the edge of the main business district and occupying the block boarder by EDSA / Pasay Road and South Drive. These are three very busy main roads, particularly EDSA which is notorious...

...I flew JAL from Sydney to London and it was the best flight I ever experienced. To start it all of the price was only beaten by Garuda - but then I'd rather do the journey by rowing boat than to fly with them! Since JAL did not have a direct flight to London we got a free nights accomodation at their own Tokyo Nikko hotel (4-star) including breakfast. The planes (both legs of the flight) were clean, the staff were very friendly and (since I am a smoker) I was particularly happy that they offer a smoking area in the plane.
