    Dear Aussie,

    A really nice photo. Brings back fond memories of those good old days, when things were black and white (instead of the more latter-day grey...)

    Best Wishes,
    Batpig.

    My cousin had one. Not as flash as that though. They are the right size when your knees just knock on the bonnet.

    they are the wrong size when you can't stop down a steep driveway and the pedals become feet blenders

    Great picture Ross. I had one similar when I was about 5. probably not exactly the same but very similar. Was in the UK and I remember my sister pushing me around in the snow in it. Brings back a few memories mate.
