Default Best bird pulling car..?

Ok,

Let's try this.
My best car for attracting and pulling the ladies was either:

1. '69 Triumph Herald convertible in old english white or.....

2. '98 A3 T-Sport in black with mustard yellow leather

I'd say the Herald had the edge though....

What was yours..?

1973 beige Morris Marina - It had a huge back seat!
Flash cars seem to be a real turn off.

1986 mk2 Golf GTi did the trick too.

You want to pull? Buy a classic not an M3!

Mitsi Warrior although they tend to be a bloody pulp by the time I get them home if I have to drag them too far.

Had a big discussion with the ladies in the office about this only yesterday:

1) Aston Martin
2) Ferrari
3) Porsche 911

Were the top 3.

Subaru's (boy racer / chav cars)
Lambo's - a bit vulgar, but would sh4g the driver as he obviously is loaded.
BMW's - boring (unless soft top)

Oh & the "never heard of that car's" were:

Koenigsegg
Noble
Bugatti
McLaren F1

.....not knowing what a McLaren F1 was instantly voided all of their opinions !

Betwixt 1992 - 1994, when I was 18-20, I had a 3 door red 1.1 Escort Pop... E Reg...

It saw more action with more different girls than Hugh Heffners swimming pool

My mate and I had slightly less success (but still very noteworthy) pulling girls in his E reg 1.0 Nissan Micra

I am still a good looking bastad but even if I was to drive a yellow Murcielago round these days, I wouldn't pull like I did back then, so, the best pulling cars beyond doubt are Red Escorts and Blue Micras...

Hmmm - Top 3 go against anything I've heard for a long time.

Recent similar discussions have top cars such as:

Mk1 Escort
Karmann Ghia
Fiat 500

Beetle too obvious.

Anything overtly flash is considered a total turn off - and some of the girls questioned are genuinely stunning so good indicators! Mind you, this is from Bristol/Cornwall where flashy cars are often viewed as a bit sad.

I would have thought it was the driver rather than the car who does the pulling.

Always wondered about blokes to cruise up and down in their "flash" motors hoping to pull.

Do they expect some bird to think "look, a guy in an F355, I'll stop it and leap in!"

Bristol was terrible for pose cruising - very amusing to see a car pass a bar for the tenth time in a night!

KoT - Oh yes I have - many times (inlaws have a place not far away)!

But for the best of chav mobile "pulling" go to the Kingsway in Swansea!

Not sure what's sadder though, an 18 year old in a chaviot or a 40 year old single bloke in an M3 or similar...

Surely that's obvious. The 18 year old has the excuse of being young and usually male, so only has intermittent brain function.

For sensible money, it has to be a Lotus Elise.

LOL!
We did a pi55 take when I was at Uni in Swansea.
Drove up and down the Kingsway in my Golf (mk2 GTi - whiff of chav but this was ages ago), with black tape boyo tushes stuck on (moustache sported by chavs there), with gold chains round our necks and a lad in the back banging a bass drum (he's a drummer) - Somehow we got away with it and laughed until our ribs snapped.

Happy days!

What is sad about a 40 year old in an M3?

Jack Brabham got a World Driver's Championship at that age!

True, but how pert are 16 year old breasts?

Funnily enough, a friend of my Mrs used to say hi and be really friendly. I have recently sold my Impreza and I barely get any acknowledgement from said friend.

Quite telling IMO

I've got a VX220, and far more women notice that than used to notice my Scoob.

Thumbs up

jaguar e-type: 1973 V12 roadster. took my dad-in-law's one out a couple of years ago to stretch its legs. pulled at a set of traffic lights on the welford road in leicester. ghost silver, burgundy leather, whitewalls, restored to mint. it was a lady-of-a-certain age in a rangie - but still within perfectly acceptable tolerances.

my did i chuckle. i'd only been driving the car 20 minutes ...
