Baby G

Thank you
Johann

RE: Baby G

I believe that these were made by an Italian company called Peg-Perego but they are, unfortunately, no longer made. Every now and then one of them pops up on Ebay, though

RE: Baby G

Jeepers for $9k I'll buy him a real gwagen as a play gym and then he can drive it when he is old enough

Re: Baby G

Have you checked with any of the MB dealers in RSA? I know they have a line of gift items which include MB bicycles and child cars (motorized and pedal). We have them in the States.

RE: Baby G

from time to time, one is on German ebay. It sells around 250 Euro.  Of course the batteries are dead when you get it, but if you are an collector...

No Baby G and No More Europa International

Europa only had one. They gave it to someone who hasn't yet migrated to this Forum. There are no more avauilable, and Europa International - sadly - is no more.

Is Russ still selling Geländewagens?  I sent an email a while back but didn’t get a reply.  Of course I didn’t really follow-up with it either.  I heard somewhere that he had moved to Colorado?  The vehicle page on the Europa website does seem to be getting update.

Russ has never been much for answering emails. Best way to get him is by cell phone. If you need it, let me know.

I spoke to him last week; and he was in Colorado and just unloading the trucks with all his stuff. He has all the records from all G's that ever passed through the old Europa International.

He continues to sell G's - mostly on consignment. There will be more services from him; but he has to advise me what to say before I can post it.
