myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4577)   ranked 5 out of 113 in driver 4 years ago

I own a black Ford Ka which is a very popular colour, make and model of car so I felt I needed to make my car look as if it was owned by me. First I added a few bumper stickers on there rear window but I still mistook my son's teacher's car for my own and nearly got in it. blink Then I added some lovely lilac dice hanging from the rear view mirror and a lilac steering wheel cover but that wasn't a big enough statement. I bought some lilac and purple daisies off the internet and stuck them all over my car now everyone know's it is my car!! Next I am going to get some, yes you guessed it, lilac seat covers. I have got kids and would find them very practical. I have not named my car, it is a car!!

Have you done anything to your vehicle that tells everyone who's vehicle it is? Have you given your car a name?

I drive a Mustang GT most of the time, it has one small sticker on the back, which also is not one that just anyone can get. You won't see this sticker on many cars if any at all. Plus I just know my car. I also have a Blazer, but there are no stickers or anything on it either. I do have a small Texas flag in the side window, which you don't see in PA very often. I never have been big on bumper stickers or stickers on other parts of the vehicle.

You remind me of my young cousin. Her colour has been purple right from a little girl. Every gift we buy her has to be purple if possible. When she was older I bought her jewelry with amethysts in it. She now owns a little purple car with all purple accessories inside. I asked her when she might get tired of that colour and she said 'never'. Your car sounds very lush. As for me, when it comes to driving and roads and cops, I like to keep a very low profile.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4577)   ranked 5 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

Hi there Anomalie

Give your cousin a big thumbup from me when you see her next. I have always loved purple from since I can remember. Did you see the picture of my car at the begining of the discussion? If you click on it you can see a bigger picture.

Hi Humbug, Well if I see a car with lilac and purple daisies in the West Country I toot and wave as I'll know it is you LOL. I have had three cars with names, Angie, Jammy and Lady because of what the number plates spelt but the car I have now has a fores reunited sticker in the rear window and and angel cat by the mirror which looks over me and protects me on journeys, I know it is my car but it doesn't really stand out from the crowd. Huggles. Ellie :D


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4577)   ranked 5 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

Hi ellie333

Yeah make sure you beep!! Aww that's really sweet having an angel by the mirror.

Thanks for your response and don't forget to honk!! thumbup



myLot reputation of 95/100. ellie333 (8050)   ranked 45 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

LOL, I'll be honking and you'll be thinking what thats stupid woman beeping at me for and give me the V sign rather than a wave and then I'll come on here and say earlier when you were so rude to that woman beeping at you it was me with my little angel cat ha ha. Huggles. Ellie :D


myLot reputation of 95/100. ellie333 (8050)   ranked 45 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

Hi Humbug, thanks for the best response, will be looking out for you, I'm in Cornwall next weekend so get ready to be honked at by a crazy lady. LOL. Huggles. Ellie :D

i use to love my car, but it failed the mot, so at the moment i have to share my husbands. It does'nt feel the same now. He has the radio on a different station than me, i have to put the seat forward when i use it, and he's more untidy than me and throws sweet papers in the car, oh well its a hard life haha


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4577)   ranked 5 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

Hi ya amanda333

Are you going to get your car back on the road or have you got rid of it? There is nothing worse than having to share your car with someone else for the very reasons you mentioned!!

Thanks for your response thumbup


myLot reputation of 83/100. amanda333 (545)   ranked 18 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

I had to chuckle my friend at your mention of lilac dice, weren't dice synonymous of people from Essex? You didn't have Wayne and Jayne on the window did you pmsl! I have a Nissan Almera and I haven't done anything to it to personalize it, it's got a stuffed animal on the back seat and it's metallic blue, not many Almera's around so no trouble getting in with someone else LOL! I haven't even called it a name, which is unsual as I named my first two cars! It's got a nice crocheted coloured blanket which my aunt made for me on the backseat bless her!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4577)   ranked 5 out of 113 in driver  4 years ago

Hi wolfie34

I think you are getting confused with white stiletoes somehow!! lol. The dice came as part of a set! No I have no name on my windscreen and never would that's kinda tacky now isn't it but it does look like it might be coming back into fashion. Heaven help us all!!
