We have a Kettcar, a left-over from when The Girl was little, and our boys love it. It has a two-speed transmission and handles quite well. Needs a fair bit of leg power in top gear.
@Pete: I think I found a decent used one. Will hopefully get it this weekend.
This brought back memories.
When I was a little kid (in 1970s), we often visited relatives in Germany.
My cousin had a Kettcar, and I sometimes drove it.
Good times!
Kettcar was a very popular toy in Germany.
