This one here --> http://www.oo.com.au/Little_Tikes_Cozy_Coupe_Car_P17796.cfm?AFID=15&cm_mmc=MyShopping-_-cpc-_-feed-_-null
Is it worth the $150?? Or waste of money? Looking at getting one for my daughter soon lol
Answer
They are DANGEROUS.
If the kid gets onto a slope they lose all control over them, and can careen into walls, fences or even out into traffic and get seriously hurt.
I'd never thought twice about them until my husband pointed this flaw out. As a result my son will NEVER be getting one. Plus, even in Australia where the recommended retail IS that high (toyworld often has them for less than the $150, so don't get it from OO- save yourself the shipping!) you can get better ride on toys for less.
The advantage to the cozy coupe is that younger children can handle it, my son was able to handle the display ones in our second most local toyworld at 12 months. Personally I would recommend getting something that doesn't free wheel as easily just for the safety factor.
I purchased this car for my son's first birthday

They take a while to ship (about two months, but they'd been out of warehouse stock for this one when I ordered it and had to wait for more from overseas).
I got it last time it was on special- it cost me $115 total including shipping to Ipswich, and it's a reliable little car. YOU can control it via the remote, and it's slow enough that when the child does master controlling it you can catch them before they get into a dangerous situation.
