Peppa pig car €150 down to €53 in Halfords

Sligo1

I thought this might deserve a thread of its own as it's such a big saving for those who don't read the halfords thread (I posted there aswell). I haven't read many reviews but have read it is quite small? Still a great deal tho (I think)... I have reserved one for my little girl for Xmas. Says €59 but comes out at €53 at checkout after all discount.

Hi there, just wondering if anyone bought this and assembled it yet? Mine is reserved until 8pm tonight so hoping to go and pick it up shortly. Was hoping anyone could give feedback on whether it is a good buy or not? Thanks

It may be on display in the shop. I bought it a few weeks ago for 74 but didnt make it up so will be returning that and buying the cheaper one

pissed

Its showing at €74 now.

I have a reservation at the lower price.

The car was on display when I bought it. It wouldn't be worth 150 but is probably worth it 74 or lower

What was the display model like? Did it look ok quality? It not really much of a bargain at 53?

It looked like what you would expect for the price. I thought it looked a little 'plasticy' but still thought it was worth getting. Hard to know how long these things would last.

We had this one before but the battery failed on it after about a year

Lol I was going to get that exact quad for my son only a month ago!!! But decided against it as thought it wouldn't last long for the price. Maybe I will leave the peppa pig car so. If it was a good bargain at 53 and looked like the quality was actually worth the €150 it was originally I would jump at it. But seems like it's not a hug bargain after all.... Thanks for the posts...

No Problem. Don't want to put you off it. If you are nearby at all I'd take a look and see.

Halfords bargain thread !!

I picked this up today as got a call to say it was in. For a price of €53 it is fair, certainly not worth 150 when you can see what is available at that price.

Only suitable for 3 years + according to instructions due to potential choke hazard, I wasn't aware of that when ordering. My own fault probably!!

Also it has to be charged for 8-10 hours and then has 1 hour driving time before recharge needed again. No idea if that is reasonable compared to alternatives.
