REMOTE-CONTROLLED cars are all the rage after one was used to deliver the match ball on to the pitch at the start of the Euros.
And it may be just the va-va-vroom you are looking for to rev you up and banish the pandemic blues.

And you need not fork out a fortune for a wicked set of wheels . . .
TRUCKLOAD OF FUN: For something sturdy that is perfect for racing, check out the Radio Controlled Truck from menkind.co.uk. Currently £30, down from £35, it goes like a bomb, tackles all terrain and is water-resistant to a depth of 5cm. If you are after something slightly cheaper, the website also has a less sturdy Red5 Drift Speed Racer Car for £19.97, reduced from £30 — but hurry, stock is low. You can currently pocket 5.5 per cent back on sale items via Topcashback.co.uk.
SAVE: £5 on the truck
RAMP UP THE ACTION: Fans of Disney Pixar’s Cars animation will love the Disney Store Francesco Bernoulli remote-control car, £11.16, down from £15.95 at shopdisney.co.uk — but again, stock is low, so be quick. It comes with a ramp and cones, and other characters from the film are available separately — great for entertaining multiple kids.
SAVE: £4.79
MINI MARVEL: If you love the iconic Mini Cooper, how about a mini Mini? You can buy a remote-control version of the classic motor from bargainmax.co.uk for just £15.99, usually £16.99 — and get an extra ten per cent off if you sign up to their newsletter. There is also free delivery and this would make a great gift for collectors.
SAVE: £2.59, when signing up to the newsletter
LOVELY LAMBO: Toy retailer The Entertainer currently has a great sale, featuring many discounted remote-control cars for kids. I especially love the orange Lamborghini Aventador model, reduced by half from £20 to £10. Perfect for those little petrolheads in your life.
SAVE: £10
