Our Favourite Childhood Toy Is Now Adult-Sized And On Our Christmas List

If there was one toy responsible for destroying sibling relationships all over the country, it was that little red and yellow car.  One Her staffer who shall remain nameless* fondly recalls tipping the car on its side while her brother was in it because he wouldn't let her be the driver. Well, now the red "Cozy Coupe" Little Tikes car is adult-sized, road worthy and available. Yep - it looks just like the toy version, with the yellow top, high roof and massive wheels, but this model takes petrol, needs to be taxed and has a top speed of 112km/h. Brothers John and Geoff Bitmead made the grown up toy back in 2013, but it is now officially up for sale on eBay. The vehicle will set you back a pretty hefty €28,000, but considering it took 1,000 hours of manpower to build, we figure that's justified. Have a look at the car in action below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvOSTwPdGAI Video via YouTube/BBCNews *Liz McHugh  H/T: Metro
