Also, do VW beetles come with the flower or is it an 'optional extra'?

CoffeeGoneColdAgain · 10/12/2011 16:32

Are you in Yorkskire Deemented? :O

CoffeeGoneColdAgain · 10/12/2011 16:33

Yorkshire even! Xmas Blush

PurplePidjInAPearTree · 10/12/2011 16:33

I think it's a new beetle thing. Mine doesn't, he's a boy and can't be doing with such frivolities Hmm

He won't be objecting to a new interior and a nice little 65mm drop when I get the cash together though Wink

I have seen 2 cars with eyelashes recently. They were both pink.
Says it all really.

WorraLiberty · 10/12/2011 16:42

Xmas Shock @ PurplePidjInAPearTree not allowing your car to explore is feminine side.

Next you'll be refusing to let him wear a dress to school Xmas Hmm

MinnieBar · 10/12/2011 16:44

Only seen one - pink beetle. DS said 'Why does that car have eye-blinks?'

Now antlers would be awesome.

larakitten · 10/12/2011 16:47

We've got some of them round here. I drive a Mini. In theory, a Mini may well suit them but not my bad boy

I also find they serve as a good warning about the expected standard of driving

pigletmania · 10/12/2011 16:53

oh dear oh dear oh dear what saaaaad peopel

PurplePidjInAPearTree · 10/12/2011 16:56

Worra, he dressed up as a Christmas tree for Action 2010

He point blank refuses make-up, however.

WorraLiberty · 10/12/2011 16:58

Don't even a bit of guyliner? Xmas Grin

Liluri · 10/12/2011 16:58

I saw them on a Fiat 500 driven by a middle aged woman.
The dashboard was littered with cuddly toys.
My car did this Hmm, which admittedly would have been more effective if it had had eyelashes.

PurplePidjInAPearTree · 10/12/2011 17:00

Pic now on profile Grin

PurplePidjInAPearTree · 10/12/2011 17:01

Not even a bit of concealer for his spots at the moment, Worra Sad

FlossieFromCrapstonVillas · 10/12/2011 17:01

They make me smile. Cheer up you loads of misery guts. I may even get some for my Fiat 500. (okay not, but I think they're quite funny)

floosiemcwoosie · 10/12/2011 17:09

I have antlers on mine......

MudAndGlitter · 10/12/2011 17:17

DS wants a tinker bell car we saw with powered by fairy dust all over it Blush

JjandtheBean · 10/12/2011 17:20

WorraLiberty · 10/12/2011 17:25

I was going to google Lunatic but was too scared.

squeakytoy · 10/12/2011 17:34

I have seen a few cars with them on.. always driven by very "girly" girls.

I think I might put some on my car... should stop the husband using it when his own is low on diesel. Grin

I have seen plenty of blokes wearing motorbike helmets with mickey mouse ears on them, so it certainly isnt just a girl thing to look a bit of a twat! Grin
