It was cool until clowns started pouring out of it. I’m still having nightmares.

Is that an Isetta? I so covet one. There used to be a black one parked fairly regularly on Noe near Duboce, but I hardly ever see it anymore. Maybe they got tired of wiping my nose-prints off the windows.

This just warms my heart. :)

Note to self, add “own fabulous retro car in bright primary colour” to life list…
Megan Says:

Totally cute, but shouldn’t be allowed to play in traffic with the big trucks.

Even just a toy one would be okay.

I saw one of these just off Sloane Square in London a few weeks ago. Exactly the same colour, too. Synchronicity!

(Apparently they can’t reverse? So if you drive down a cul-de-sac, you have to get out, pick it up and put it down facing the other way. That’s why they made them so tiny and portable.)
Maggeh Says:

Antonia, that is fantastic. In the States, they mostly serve as snacks for hungry SUVs, so they probably don’t survive long enough to ever need to turn around.
