I own a 1928-1930's Vauxhall pedal car by lions brothers. It was in totally unrestored original condition after it was imported from India after being bought there from a bargains bizzare shop. I noticed they had the original Klaxon horn on it.

Re: Pedal Cars

I was looking to order pedal cars for my neighbours kid and my nephew - to my surprise found there is nothing available. Thats when I remembered to check in our forum.

Is there any possibility of finding a working one or anyone manufacturing it at all here in India ?

I'm sure kids will have fun with it given that it mixes every kids love of bicycles and steering wheel.

Appeared in OLX today:

No idea of the authenticity. I have no connection with this seller whatsoever.
