Came across this yet again on the Scottish Sun

Would you want/like a car to go with your kilts ?

Depends which kilt I am wearing, so I would want more than one.

Regards

Chas

Good lord no, perish the thought!

Personally, I wouldn't do it. But if it's your ride, and you dig it then go for it!

Alas, I too would have to own several tartan cars... I'm a Scot married to an Irish guy, so I have several tartan choices, and I wouldn't want my car to clash with my skirt.

I have 2 teenage boys, and 4 large dogs, so I would need an SUV-no way I could cram everybody into a tiny car. They're really cute, though!

No, but tartan upholstery would be nice.

I'm not a fan of putting tartan all over everything, so no.

But I would definitely buy this car in ordinary colours. I drive its big brother, the Yaris. So tiny cars are nothing new to me, and if this is somewhat of a compromise between the Yaris and the Smart Fortwo, I can dig it!

I have actually been researching the possibility of doing a tartan vinyl wrap on my Jeep Wrangler instead of painting it....of course I have to get it running first.

Wouldn’t it be marvellous to have a tartan car!
But of course if one wears more than one tartan, which to choose? (I can’t afford a car for each tartan, and I only have two so far.)
The Toyota with the Melville tartan is very smart (darn, I couldn’t download it for my collection!).
But the tartan finish on the Mini Cooper looks a little badly stuck on (or are the curves of the bodywork misleading me?).
There is also the famous London taxi (that is, one made by the London Taxi Company) that can be seen in Glasgow advertising Slanj Kilts. If I recall correctly, that one is in Royal Stewart.
I also have a picture of a car advertising Instakilts (also a Mini, if I recall aright).
The more the merrier!

Mike
