  • Specialists in handmade children’s electric ride on cars

    We are Toylander Real Life Toys Ltd, a business located in South Wales, UK. We specialise in making and selling handmade children’s electric ride on cars either as self-build kits or fully ready built cars.

    Toylander began in 1987 making the Mayfair, selling it mainly as a homebuilt kit. Then adding the Geepstar model later. Then in 2000 the Toylander 1 and Toylander 2 were added to the range. Since 2015 the range has been expanded to include the UnimogToylander 3 and the Toylander 90. Please also see our Ready to go Toylander Stocklist
