First impressions: This car is quite light weight, which actually turns out to be a really positive feature as my children own another, more substantial model of electric car and it does not manage to ascend even gentle slopes or across gravel with nearly as much power
Ease of Use: The car is a little awkward to recharge, requiring the removal of a tiny screw, before lifting the seat right off. It is also rather complicated to assemble. The children found the car incredibly easy to use however, and took to it immediately
Pros: This is a super little toy. The horn makes a genuinely horn like noise and it zips around the garden effortlessly, giving hours, days, weeks and no doubt entire summers worth of play. The other car that my children own cost almost £300 and they much prefer this one! The selection and customer service from this website are terrific
Cons: The instructions are hilarious and clearly written by someone who once met someone who spoke English. There are two speeds: slow and fast. It is essential for the child to stop the car first, before changing the speeds. Freya broke the gear switch within the first few days by ignoring completely ignoring the instructions. Having said that, she much preferred the fast speed anyway and never missed the slow speed at all
Value for money: Excellent value for money. This toy had my daughter zipping around the garden from 7 am each morning since it arrived at the beginning of half term, and will no doubt, keep her occupied all summer. Terrific value at just £99, this website includes delivery in the price, which I always applaud. All internet shopping should be this simple.

I think he’s tip top, but then I’m biased.
