Little Tikes Black Cab Cozy Coupe Car - Ride-On with Real Working Horn, Clicking Ignition Switch, & Fuel Cap

This is only the second cozy coupe I have bought, the first one being in 1992!! Still a great product. I love the “new little ledge” inside enabling a toddler to rest their feet safely whilst being pushed around. It really is the most adorable toy for little ones!

not easy to put up but it’s a great ride on for kids

I bought this cosy coupe car for my son's second Christmas and he loves it and wants in it all the time, and loves to fill the boot with toys and beep the horn. The only problem I have with the car is the build it yourself part, it is not very practical for single mums with very little time on their hands as it is, without having to build this car, that quite frankly to some may as well be a real one, they're putting together. You need good strength as you will have to screw through the plastic with a screwdriver, unless you're a dab hand with a drill, which I am not. You will need to hammer in parts that are quite tricky to balance by yourself and you are constantly having to reposition the car while you do this. I found building the car stressful, as I wasn't sure how the finishing product was going to look, until the very end. I wasn't wanting to have to send the car back half built defeated, but I also didn't want to spend all that money for the car to turn out looking like it had already had it's run, and waste my money either. I wouldn't recommend it to someone who wouldn't know where to start with such projects, as even following the instructions can lead to the car being a failed attempt at the end of a lot of hard work. I am not sure if my car is up to par as it seems to be extremely noisy when pushing it. I thought this was due to the front wheels being positioned wrongly, but I checked by rolling the car back and forth before hammering them in place and all seemed fine then and still do seem the correct distance from the wheel arch now, so this must not be the case at all. I don't know if my wheels are suppose to keep rotating, but my wheels seem to keep turning in on themselves and then turning back to normal and back in again, but I guess this makes it easy for turning corners. I don't know if the front wheels are right for sure leaving me guessing, I suppose. I have built bunk beds, a bookcase a cot and many children's necessity's such as high chair, travel cot, you name it I've built it, and in the end I feel great to look at the finishing results. This time is different I keep wondering if I have the wheels correctly positioned and wonder if it is built as sturdy as it should be. I found it hard to screw the roof and window frames together, as one of the sides wouldn't push into place as it should have, leaving one side that doesn't seem to meet the window frame as good as the other side. However, it is not that noticeable, so not a big problem for myself, but may be for others who are perfectionists. The stickers where not put on professionally as I had to put them on myself, but ended up being as close to professional as I could get them, as I am very artistic and have a steady hand. Not everyone is and does though and even with my artistic attempts I ended up with a few air bubbles, which I had to smooth out by pricking tiny holes in the stickers using a needle, and push out the air. The stickers are extremely hard to take back off once you have flattened them down so I would recommend you don't until you have them positioned accurately. The stickers are very strong and my many repositioning of them never resulted in any of them ripping and I don't think they stickers will be coming of any decade soon. All in all I wish you good luck if you buy as you are going to need it even if you are familiar with building such products, but if built to a usable degree you will have a fantastic toy on your hands for years to come as I have heard all fantastic things about these cars and I use to have the yellow and red one myself as a kid. Now my son is enjoying his own! Fantastic, but wish it was pre-built for piece of mind that it is to the best of it's ability.

Great little car for my nephews birthday. Quick delivery. 5***** Was nervous about putting it all together myself, but it was easy enough to follow, took me just under an hour to do and if your in doubt instructions are also on youtube.

Was a much loved present for my grandson his face was a picture. takes some assembly i recommend watching you tube assembly video before building.

I absolutely love the Little Tikes Cozy Coupe Dino – and so does my child! The design is adorable, bright, and fun, and the whole dinosaur theme is such a hit. The quality of the body parts we received is great, and assembling most of it was easy and enjoyable. However, the experience was sadly ruined by missing wheel parts. We built almost the entire car, and only when we got to the final step did we realize that key wheel components were missing, which means the car is not drivable at all. I contacted the Little Tikes support team via email, but unfortunately I haven’t received any response. At this point, returning the item is really difficult because most of the car is already assembled, and my child is completely in love with it and doesn’t understand why they can’t actually ride it. It’s heartbreaking to see such an amazing toy sitting there unusable. This could have been a 5-star product, but the missing parts and lack of customer support have been extremely disappointing. I really hope Little Tikes improves their quality checks and customer service, because the product itself is truly wonderful.

A firm favourite within minutes of being unwrapped this Christmas, the Cozy Coupe truck is everything I had hoped it would be. Assembly is straightforward, you just need a phillips screwdriver (or an electric drill with screwdrive bit is even better), and a hammer. The instructions are all in pictures and very easy to follow and nothing is too technical - the riskiest area is putting the front wheels on the wrong side, but the components are all clearly marked, both on the body of the car and the wheel pieces themselves so this is easily avoidable. Once built there are likely to be some gaps and things that don't quite close - this is, after all, a molded piece of plastic and not made to huge engineering tolerances. But those gaps and tight fits are all "liveable" and don't detract from the function or enjoyment of the toy. Once built it's pretty simple. There's a seat, with a steering wheel and a battery operated horn. The steering wheel is there for play and doesn't do anything to steer the car. It's easy enough for a little one to turn and the battery compartment in the horn is easily accessible without removing the whole steering wheel when they need to be changed. The front wheels are independent of each other and the wheel mounting is designed so that they typically "self-correct" into a straight line unless the driver is trying to push in a different direction. The intependent nature means that the car can turn on a sixpence, handy when mum or dad is pushing it around the house. The rear wheels share a fixed axle and work well enough. For mum and dad there is a handle type design built into the roof to helpmake it a bit easier to push/steer. It works but the height of the car means that if you're 5' 10" or taller you might get a bit of a bad back after pushing for not too long as you need to bend over quite a way. The thing that sets this car apart from the original Cozy Coupe is the boot and, wait for it, the cup holders!. Both are great additions! With an opening tailgate, our little one loves loading the boot with his toys before driving off on an imaginary adventure. The two cup holders are just the right size for his Nuby drinking cup and hold it nicely in palce without being too tight. The finsihing touch is the smiley face on the front - instantly welcoming and our little one often says hello to it before going for his drives... Only used indoors so far, it's rugged enough to become a garden toy during the summer months. It also looks like it's been amde to last (like all other Little Tikes toys that I've seen). Well worth the money and highly recommended.

Lovely little Car for my grandson. He absolutely loves it. Great quality and perfect for a 2 year old
