Toy cars with trailer buying guide
What should you pay attention to when buying toys cars with trailer? With each toys car you look at how well it drives and how much fun it is to keep playing with.
But with trailers you also have to pay extra attention to the connection between the auto or truck and trailer. These are often fragile and the first to break.
That is why I paid extra attention to these reviews.
Sustainability
There are quite a few differences in quality toys car brands. Just look at the difference between Bruder and Hot Wheels, you can clearly feel the quality.
There are different grades of what plastic is used for cars. Bruder, for example, is one of the strongest. While Green Toys gives more, but is very good for the environment.
Quality of driving
At toys You want cars to drive well. Some may be for display only, not for play. But you still want them to roll well.
A few things to watch out for are:
- the distance from the wheels to the chassis: some toy cars run into problems so they don't drive very well
- the rigidity of the shaft: some toy cars are very wobbly so the wheels can move far in and out, and still rub
- the quality of the wheels: is it plastic or are there really rubber wheels on the tires? Rubber rolls a lot better
- the weight of the car: you may not realize this right away, but the weight of the car plays a very large role in how well it rolls. A heavier car made of diecast or wood rolls a lot better and further than a plastic car
Replayability
A big part of the replayability of the auto It's in how well it drives, but there are other factors that determine how often they return to it.
Age also plays a role. Is it a auto that remains ignored after toddlerhood or can it last longer because it is also suitable for older children?
The number of extra functions also plays a role, such as the horse in the Bruder trailer or the Lego bricks in the police set.
I have each of the cars on this list on these components are assessed on a 5-point scale.
Best toy cars with trailer reviewed
Bruder Dodge Ram 2500 With Horse Trailer 02501
- Super sturdy construction
- All doors can be opened, including the tailgate of the truck
- Very expensive
- Little big to play with and difficult to combine with other toys
The Dodge pick-up has a cab with four doors that can be opened and closed. The tailgate can also be opened.
Toys Horse trailers are also available for older children who can handle small parts responsibly and may be more interested in a more truthful design.
Great fun for children who still have a lot of interest in horses and horse trailers as they grow up.
It is one of the strongest toys cars I've ever seen. Bruder is expensive, that's for sure. But it is also really of quality.
Due to the size and especially small parts (the doors can be detached and there is a loose tekhook), the set is particularly suitable for children from 3 years old.
The horse trailer is equipped with a rear door that can be easily folded open and can serve as a platform for the horse to be guided inside.
The Dodge Ram is also available separately without the horse trailer.
Melissa & Doug Wooden Truck Loading Crane
- Nice set with cars and trailer
- Good size to play with other cars
- Magnet is very weak and hard to keep the cars on it
- Wooden stop block of the trailer broke off (after angry throwing)
The Melissa & Doug magnetic wooden truck crane with vehicles consists of six parts and includes a red charger with magnetic army arm, a car transport trailer and four magnetic wooden cars.
The four cars all have a different color, namely red, blue, yellow and white and each has its own number. In this way, a child learns to count, sort and group and playfully stimulate fantasy.
I had written about it before here under the nicest wooden one toys like wooden toys car, that the magnet (like this magnetic toy) could have been a little stronger.
That is really true because it becomes very challenging to drive with the auto while holding something.
You can pick up cars with the magnetic crane on the truck and they are very loose. You have to be extremely dexterous with that magnet.
In the end he liked the other magnet best toys, such as magnetic blocks and magnetic animals.
But it's such a fun and cute set and my son is absolutely full of it.

Bruder 02776 Man TGA Low Loader Truck with JCB 4CX Backhoe Loader
- Very solidly built
- Nice working features
- Size is large and difficult to combine with other toys
The excavators also need a way to get to the construction site, of course, so a good trailer is certainly a nice addition and to use with many of the smaller vehicles.
Fortunately, there is also an excavator with a front loader and a rear digging area to make playing a lot more fun.
This is just like the Bruder horse trailer toys not to be broken. Small parts may be overdue, such as a side mirror, but the cars many of them will last for years.
With this toys you have a complete set for a lot of imaginative play and creativity on the construction site.

You may pay a little more, but it is better for the environment and... toys which can withstand many brothers and sisters and soon even grandchildren.
Schleich Wild Life ATV Quad
- Highly detailed toy
- Nice set with tiger and cage, other Schleich animals also fit
- Doll cannot move
- Quad grips are fragile
Schleich is the brand with toys animals with enormous detail. Now they have implemented that in a fun play set with Quad and trailer.
The quad with trailer and forester is part of the Wild Life collection of figures and playsets from Schleich.
As with every set from Schleich, the detail is enormous, but the price is also appropriate. For example, the 3 inch (7,6 cm) long tiger is beautiful to look at.
What I just never really understand about Schleich toys is that the figures are stuck in their roles. For example, the ranger can only sit on the Quad, but the legs do not move from the sitting position.
This was also the case with a horse trailer from Schleich that we reviewed earlier.
There are nice parts such as a helmet, walkie-talkie and axe. These are very small so the set is suitable from three years. Or you have to omit these parts when you give it.
Normally, Schleich is indestructible and made to last for generations. Yet they have opted for a quad here and it has thin handles.
That is something to watch out for, especially with small children.
LEGO City Police Mobile Command Center 60139
- Large building set with a lot of accessories
- Fun activities like breaking out of jail
- Runs less well than real car toys
Lego is always fun to build with and the more you have the more fun it gets.
This police set is another nice one with a lot of things to play with.
The command center features a detachable cabin, prison cell, surveillance room, satellite dish, ATV and motorbike.
So there is plenty to do for fun fantasy play. There are 374 pieces in total, so quite a bit to build and children from 6 years old can get started.
From the age of 5 they come a good end if you help a little.
It's pretty solid once built so they can actually play around with it without having to rebuild it every time.
Conclusion
These sets certainly include a trailer that suits you. I've added some for every age and these really are the best in their category.
