Elise I think.
Least dignified entry/exit ever.
As long as the roof is off, one can get in and out of an Elise.

Exige, however ... that said, if she has a sense of humour? Last time I crawled out of an Exige on all four the misses broke down laughing.

PH type girl- biggrin everytime
Well that is the holy grail.

Many aspire, few achieve.
It's only happen once! Alas she's now engaged. And not to me, hey ho!

Anything with an aeroscreen and no roof really isn't going to impress. Much as they may hate a silly looking, loud tin top with rock hard suspension it does at least keep te wind and rain out of their hair biggrin

I had an Alfa 1750 GTV that was a bit of a heep. Picked up a girl to take her to a black tie event and pulled up outside the house where we were having drinks first. Couldn't open my door and couldn't open her door so I had to climb out of the sun roof to open her door from the outside (which of course I would have done anyway if I could have got out of the bloody car....). At the end of its life I donated it to the army to use for car bomb training.

Loved that car though.

I am sure he meant Ford Capri, not Capri in Italy!

I don't seem to get any sort of admiration from women when driving my Celica, I just get looks from the knuckle draggers in their shellsuits and baseball caps.

My missus doesn't particularly like it either, she prefers my Mini (as it's a "normal car") - the BMW is "too big" but she does appreciate the creature comforts.

I think most women would love to be picked up in something like this...



Whereas if you turned up in one of these, most would probably think you were a bit of a knob smile

I think i can piss you all up with a car I owned for exactly 1 month as a stop gap. Ruined my reputation so much.

It was a 1998 Ford Focus Ghia Saloon. Yes thats right. The booted version. With a 1.6 engine, beige interior and walnut trim. It did have alloy wheels though. And I was 23 at the time.

Suzuki Ignis Sport.

Having owned one I can quite comfortably confirm that you will most likely never meet anyone even vaguely accepting of them, let alone actually trying to impress a girlfriend with one.

Body kitted Corsas etc at least impress teenage girls, there are a few out there who appreciate a nice Evo etc, and living in the countryside I know some women love a nice wrecked Rangie etc.

Ignis Sport...appeals to nobody.
