In the Wacky Races

I'm still looking for the perfect first birthday present for Peanut. It's really tricky knowing that we don't actually have any space for ANY new toy. The girl is no longer interested with most of her baby toys, and by now enjoys playing with non-toy items, such as shoe boxes, spoons, fridge magnets and a packet of half-full (or half-empty, if you prefer) Tictac with duct tape on the lid (to prevent her from getting any Tictacs out). On the other hand it's also my excitement for her being a 'big girl' and no longer a little baby and I want a toy that reflects that.

I'm still unable to find a rocking thingy that I like, and I'm starting to consider playrides instead. That pedal retro racer shown here is a replica of the famous 1952-1957 Ferrari F2 Racers. It comes with chrome rims, a chrome steering wheel, chrome knock off spinners, chrome windshield, and a big chrome grille. Made of lead-free coating, it costs €499 .

The yellow Comet Checker cab version of the pedal car is also nice, in a cuter way than the racer, and it costs half as much.

These pedal cars are available at Mamalou.eu

The Ferrari pedal car looks fantastic! I remember having a similar 1950's style pedal car when I was a kid. It too had a large grille at the front. Sadly though it didn't have all of the chrome detail as the Ferrari and I would imagine that it cost a fraction of the 499 euros that you have found it for. A lovely thing to have though!
