After looking for a reasonable priced Toylander I couldn’t find the right one and with xmas fast approaching I decided to go a different route for now
Thought this with a nice lick of John Deere green and nice yellow seat along with matching trailer would do them until I find the right Toylander project What you guys think?

Just make sure you have a load of old cushions to stack at the back of the seat so they can reach the pedals! Matt. '89 90 CSW with a 3.5 V8 conversion (WIP) - http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic46809.html |

The beauty of this is it’s automatic just pull lever for gear change so they will be fine Plenty of room to drive around And has to be John Deere colours to match grandads tractor 👍 2008 110 2.4 XS Utility (Hagrid) 2002 90 TD5 Hardtop (Sully) Sold 1998 300TDi D1 (Billy) Sold |

Great idea PJ.
I’ve got a John Deere ride-on and the mini-Fox’s fight to cut the grass, just so they can drive the tractor |

Definitely John Deere colours - nothing runs like a Deere.

If you have space, just buy them a series 3, it's cheaper than a toylander.
