What's on the tarp today
Prices are a range: the final one is agreed at the stall. Everything is boxed and new, and we open the box and test it in front of you.
Don't see it? Ask us: we can usually bring other colours and models within two days.

Buying by the road
-
1
Pull fully off the road
Use the mud shoulder, not the lane. Put your hazard lights on, and we'll wave you in. Coming from town, we're on your left.
-
2
See it, sit in it
We open the box, charge it up and let the kid drive it on the shoulder. You check the horn, lights, remote and charger yourself.
-
3
Agree a price
Pay the price we agree, by cash or UPI. You get a handwritten bill with our number on it. Keep it for the battery guarantee.

We load it
Box or no box, whichever fits. We tie down the boot lid if needed, or strap small toys to the bike carrier.

விரிப்புக்குப் பின்னால்
Who's behind the tarp
We're a few families from around Nagercoil who sell by the road. We bring the stock from the wholesale market, unpack it, test every battery, and have the row laid out by nine every morning.
There's no shop, no AC and no rent. That's the whole reason the price is what it is. It's the same jeep as the shop in town, sold off a tarp instead of a shelf.
- Charger stopped working? Send us a video on WhatsApp, or bring it back to the same spot.
- Battery guarantee for three months on ride-ons. Show the bill and we replace it.
- Busiest weeks: before Christmas, Pongal and the summer holidays. Come early in the day.
கேள்விகள்
Things people ask at the roadside
Is it the same as the toy shop in town?
Same models, same boxes, from the same wholesale market. The difference is we don't have a building to pay for, and you can try it outside before you pay.
How long does the battery last?
About 45 minutes to an hour of driving on a full charge for 12V jeeps, and a little less for 6V. A full charge takes 8 to 10 hours, so charge it overnight. We give it to you half charged so the kid can drive it straight away.
Can you hold one until I get there?
Yes. Press Hold it for me on any toy and tell us roughly when you'll arrive. We'll put it aside until that time, and there's no advance payment.
It won't fit in my car. What now?
Bigger jeeps fit in most hatchbacks once they're out of the box, with the seats folded. If it really won't fit, ask about drop-off to your home in Nagercoil town.
Is it safe to stop there?
We set up only where the shoulder is wide enough for a car to pull right off. Please don't stop in the lane or on the bend. Go a little past and walk back. We'll come to you.
Coming today? WhatsApp before you leave home.
We'll tell you what's still on the tarp and which stop we're at.
