WATCH: Giant Cozy Coupe leaves people stunned and feeling nostalgic
The iconic red and yellow Cozy Coupe has been driven by millions of children around the world - but none of them would have been quite like this one.
Foot-power has been replaced by an 800cc engine, giving it a top speed of more than 70mph.
And most excitingly of all the addition of an anti-lock braking system, registration plate and driver's airbag mean it is fully road legal.
Inevitably a car designed for toddlers does have its drawbacks on the open road.
The metal frame was not created with comfort in mind, there is not much room for luggage, and those inside have minimal protection from the elements.
But these are small prices to pay for the chance to drive a one-of-a-kind vehicle which is guaranteed to draw attention and rekindle childhood memories.
It is currently on loan to West Bromwich-based Nankang Tyres who are using it as a promotional tool at car shows up and down the country.
Jamie Smith, who works in the firm's sales department, said: "Underneath it is a Daewoo Matiz with an 800cc, three-cylinder engine, but as you can see there has been a lot of metal work done and a bit with fibreglass.
"It handles a little like a cross between a go-kart and a Mini. It has a really tight turning circle because of the short wheelbase. Overall it handles and goes well."
The Cozy Coupe has recently been spotted out on the streets of the Black Country and Staffordshire including at a charity show in Rugeley a fortnight ago.
Jamie, added: "When you drive around the corner you can just see the shock in people's faces.
"Adults just point at it and smile while kids go absolutely crazy. A lot of adults remember it fondly as being their first car.
"At car shows the biggest reaction we get is of disbelief. Everyone recognises it as a Little Tikes Cozy Coupe but what really freaks people out is that it has a number plate and that I am driving and that it is actually road legal.
"Everyone gives it a smile and a wave."
