The one-third scale model pedal Land Rover Series 1 was at the All British Car Day in Oamaru on Saturday, parked with her father Ross' 1954 Series 1.
Abby was sporting three Land Rover badges on her outfit as she, Mr Hayes and mother Ailsa, along with participants in about 60 other cars, set out on a tour of North Otago as part of the day.
Mr Hayes started building Abby's pint-sized Land Rover when she was 1 year old, to have it ready in time for her fourth birthday in October last year.
He measured up his own Series 1, then scaled it down to one-third.
Like all Land Rovers, the pedal car is built from aluminium.
It also has working lights and a winch.
Asked if Abby liked Land Rovers, Mr Hayes replied: "Hell, yes."
So does he. He bought his Series 1 in 1996 and it took about five years to restore.
He has another Series 1 "as a future project" waiting to be rebuilt and also owns a Series 3.
