Blimey Paul, you don't have a very high opinion of your car do you?

Need to find a picture, but i have a small blue nodding dog in the blue panda, and he has been nodding in it for the past 7 years ;D

[captainmatt]

Duplo brick on the dash.
Was given to me by a mate who found it in his car, lobbed it in my old 106, and said I could have it. When I got the Bluebird, I blue-tacked it to the dash where it has forever been.



Always get the usual "Why have you got Lego on your dash?"

"I haven't"
"You have" Followed by pointing.
"Thats Duplo that is. Not Lego"

Au contraire just thought that was funny at a meet about 6 months back. Most of the time I don't have one

[datman]

one of mine

other one

I guess that makes her a bonnet mascot

I used to have several in my first car (Fiesta), Pikachu sat in one of the dash screw recesses, perfect fit (shody pic the car is filthy sitting out back waiting for welding ))

He was accompanied by this guy:

not the exact one but similar, he worked his way around the car often abseiling down from the rear view mirror ;D

My daily car has always had this guy:

Usually in that position. The ladies all love him!!

Wouldn't be without a little mascot, when its all going wrong and i get in the car they make me smile and remember where they have been with me

[brocko]

Monkey lives on the back seat of the daily



Have been looking for a flat eric to keep him company for a while too

Seems my living mascot doesnt actually like being in cars...

[trogdor]

Sorry I don't have any pics, but

On my work 405 I have woodstock, you know the little yellow bird in Snoopy? He sits on the dash next to the A pillar until my parents borrowed the car.

He was then kidnapped and it took cake to get him back, I now have him in the kidnapp guise he was held hostage in, with sticks of dynamite taped to him and a black blindfold pinned in place.

On the clio my wife mostly uses we have two nodding sheep on the dash, a black one (me) and a white one (my wife). The clio has a great little shelf on the dash for them(where the aux dials would be on higher spec models), we are planning to put down grass and erect a picket fence for them etc.

Girls always want to know where we got the sheep from......

Excellent

It's Garfield for me, ever since a mate pulled him out of a skip and shoved hin on the dash of my SD1 Vitesse with the comment, that's what your passengers usually look like the way you drive...

He's always comes with me now, once he has adopted a car he doesn't change, currently he lives in the Camaro and eats spiders

Like this guy except he's tucked in at the bottom centre of the windscreen

[jim]

bagpuss is my co-pilot he has been in all of my cars and on many road trips

[grizz]

Guess this guy is the bus' no 1 Mascot, due to whole Sinclair theme.

Have a Hawaiian Hulla girl dancing there too.
Almost ex-daily has a chameleon from Hawkins bazaar on the dash, he moves from car to car.

Cheers bud , she's the worlds friendliest dog too. (f&cking dopey though. lol).

Typical Cavalier then - they're anyone's friend, especially if they think they might have a chance of scrounge food, usually by guilt tripping people with a mournful expression on those huge eyes. Tricolours are usually much greedier than Blenhiems though. My mother & late grandmother used to breed them - at one stage, they had about 12 (normally 8 - 10), but mum now has just three.

Here's the one on the dash of the Amazon - a Cavalier magnet that I bought as a child at a dog show, and which was used on my Minor for holding parking tickets to the dashtop. When I sold that, it migrated to the Amazon where it normally serves no useful purpose.

(Just noticed that this pic was taken about 40k miles ago...)

I sometimes make little plaque/badge things for a car or bike, make a metal disc, mod some cheap jewellery or somesuch, and paint:

[Soopahfly]

I got a spider in my mirror.

The wife is convinced that it is the one that used to live in my hair when we were camping.

[PhilA]

I had some fluffy dice which went mouldy and the spots fell off.

That and a hula girl.


The dailys are bland and therefore undeserving of mascots.

Also had Taz stuck on the dash of my old Corsa.
