  3. Steer-n-go

I can't think of any other toy I played with more than Steer-n-Go when I was a kid. The red dashboard console with steering wheel and low / high gear shift (forward & reverse too) was never shoved in a closet. I played it to death.

The round landscape with roadways spun at challenging speeds. The Matchbox car had a magnet fastened to the bottom that stuck to the magnetic arm from the steering wheel as long as you kept in on the roadway. If you lost control, you were in for some spectacular accidents.

Great toy and I would love to get my hands on one.

    Unfortunately my mum and dad split up in 1979 and i had to leave mine behind. Never saw one in real life again since but the memory of having one will be with me forever.

    I still have mine and I might be looking at selling it. Needto do a quick check to make sure it all works etc. Box has some corner damage and not sure what the original car was but there are a few in the box from the era.

    Hi! Do you know any other toys similar to Steer-n-go? I had one with a small car (80's I think) you could drive up on a hill, it also had a steering wheel and a 4-gear shift, red dashboard. THX

    I had one of these too and it was great. I also had some sort of magic driving game that used small plastic gars and these fitted much better on the Steer-n-Go, they were a lot smaller and the landscape was a better scale for them to drive around. The reverse action of the set meant that I could drive around the little hills (which now were mountains) and come back the other way and stop by the water feature...!

Do you remember these?
