Amazing! I'm really glad I started this thread - it's great to see photos of folks from here with their first pride and joy and your photos are no exception. Those Raleigh pedal cars were well put-together and had enough room for twos-up as well. This one has been on ebay for a while so I'd expect the seller would accept an offer - it must be one of the most original surviving examples I reckon. GIB!

I used mine until the wheels wore away. I never had a visor helmet though. The boy next door had an elderly plastic Bentley Continental thing we crashed into and broke.

It's been a long time since I've seen J40s being used on fairground rides

Only just spotted this. What a find! I follow a J40 resto company on Twatter - interesting to see some of the work on them. Prices have gone crazy, predominantly due to the Settrington Cup at Goodwood I reckon.
