J Type on Kids TV

Sarah, my 3 year old daughter, has a new favourite television show. I found her standing in front of the TV mesmerised by an animated emu driving an icecream van. A moment later I was beside her trying to get her to move out of the way. The program is called "The Koala Brothers" and one of the characters, an emu called 'Lolly', drives a slightly stylised J Type icecream van.
Lolly's van could do with some suspension work

The fact that its bright pink is what wins it favours with my 3 year old, when I pointed out that its the same as my van she came up with a number of suggestions about what colour schemes I should be using.


The rest of the cartoon isn't too bad either, there are several classic vehicles that make an appearance including a Piaggio Ape, a Vespa and a vintage caravan.
