Not strictly Christmas but I knew you guys were brilliant at this...

I've just bought my 3 year old a garage for his birthday, it's this one www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toys/construction-and-cars/garages/molto-7-storey-toy-car-parking-garage/p/152864

A 7 storey toy garage. However of the 10 cars I bought with it (a multipack also from smyths) none of them will go down the ramp fully without stopping or crashing into the side, it's so frustrating for him! We've had tears! Some don't even make it past the first corner 🙈 I feel we might need some that have a bit more weight to them to carry down the ramp, does anybody have any ideas? They would be massively appreciated 🥰

Have you tried Hot Wheels? My nephew has always got on really well with them and they seem more robust than others.

Hot wheels cars are expensive compared to other brands but they are really heavy and work well on ramps etc. The multipack cars are better than the single but ‘fun’ cars.

Disney Cars diecasts are the best (not the ones from Disney shop as they are plastic). They don't need to have watched the movies, they all just seem to live them because they have faces. They are much more expensive than Hot Wheels though.

Hot wheels are great. My kids are obsessed. They are heavy and fairly indestructible.
There’s some in the 2 for £15 at argos right now for packs of 10.

Hot wheels are good. There a multupacks available and if you have a local spar, they sell the more different ones. My wee boy asks for one everytime we go in now! He obviously doesn't get one everytkme though I do think we are the only ones buying them!

Great thank you I will buy some hot wheels, I didn't expect them to be heavy to be honest from holding the packs but I will try them :)
