Guys,

I'm trying to find a ride-on 911 for my Son. I tried everywhere lasat year and ended up getting him a Ferrari.

He has now driven the wheels off it and have been looking to replace it with a 911, but cant find one anywhere on the net!

There are 911 'style', but they're rubbish! I'm looking for a 12v 'Licensed' car, these look like the real thing.

Surely a fellow 911 lover (and father!) has been down this road before!

Help! I'm going cross-eyed searching the web!!

Stevie

Have you walked into an OPC and asked about the battery versions?

I'm pretty sure they always have at least 1 on display/sale

This. If they don't have one available there and then my experience is they will get you it very quickly.

The only electric Porsche looks like a 356 - certainly the only one available officially - so not sure an OPC can help if you want a 911 and nothing else will do. £360 otherwise: http://shop2.porsche.com/uk/kids/toys/wap0402000b/

Thanks Guys,

yes I've seen the 356 speedster, but thats been it. The ones at the OPC have been pedal cars.

I've got my 3yr old 911 daft, Oops! Would love to see his wee face if I managed to get a mini 'Daddies Car'.

The search goes on ...

I had a look at Hamley's for you but sadly they don't do one.

I have seen some on amazon, but I don't think they look very good. I did see someone doing a grey 356 speedster, not sure if it might "pass" as a 911.

only £99

ETA link not working. It's one of the 'limited availability' deals of an electric ride-on porsche with mp3 player.
Suggest you sign up/login and see if it's of interest

bought the non battery version of the blue 911 speedster (limited edition for what its worth) for my 2.5 year old last xmas. was about 80 inc small discount. it looks good and is made in germany etc but the decals do not come applied and you have to put them on yourself. the adhesive is pants and ours started to peel so the opc got some more for me. ive not put them on yet for fear of the same thing happening

i would not buy one again unfortunately - the price premium over the 'normal' ones is not justified in the finished product

The second one's dodgy as there are no contact details.
