Maybe OT: Scooter with tyres

[John]

I'm after a scooter for my, soon to be, 9 year old daughter. She already has
one of those micro-scooter thingys, but I would like a scooter with
inflatable tyres. We had use of one a few years back while on holiday in the
South of France and it was great. I did ask the owner where it came from but
he can't remember.

I've looked on Ebay and they have a 'speedy-V' scooter, but wanted to see
what other options I might have..

They look a bit rubbish - steel rims, flimsy caliper brakes. Mission
