I'm looking for a garage for my DS who is 3 in 2 weeks time. There are so many to choose from and now I'm confused. Can anyone recommend one to me.

Thanks.

You're welcome

'Arghhh..' is getting it for her son and she works for ELC which is about as good a recommendation as you can get I think!

Did you see she advises getting 20% off rather than the free cars though? From the reviews I've read, they are rubbish and break really easily. With the £11 you'll save with the voucher, you could buy some nice Matchbox cars instead which are the same size.

Whatever you do don't get this one from toysrus. Fell to pieces.

Planning to try again this Christmas with a different one!

Thanks Wallace I saw that one on Sunday and was wondering about it.

Thanks TheBlairSnitchProject I'll make sure I get the 20% off.
