On Friday I pulled up at a set lights in town and Froggy was getting a bit of attention from a young man and young blonde lady in a shop doorway. Lad says something like "nice car", but the young lady starts talking and wants to get in the car with me. Smiley

Just wondering if anyone else has had any similar experiences?

I was on the way for my flu jab, so I didn't "pick her up" before you ask. Smiley Smiley Smiley

Cheers R.

There's something on one of the U.S. forums about the Sprite 'not having the power to pull the panties off a drunken girlfriend'!

Is that what you are talking about? Smiley

A long time ago I met a young lady at the Uni Disco and we got talking and dancing - then I offered her a lift home and she said "Yes" feeling safe, having rated me as a "Moggy thou" owner....
The metalflaked, alloy wheeled, frogeye was a surprise!! Smiley But she got her lift home.... Smiley
...... and I expect her home soon today Smiley

I recall my Isetta bubble car had greater pull than the Frog. It may be that all my mates had Beezers or Norton's and you become far more popular after a party when its raining. The bubble had a bench seat of course! By the time they bought cars eg Cortina's etc the Frog was considered rather noisy and damp!!

You can get carried away polishing headlights and their surrounds on a Sprite!

Just don't rub too hard; a gentle, caressing motion seems to get best results. Smiley Smiley Smiley
