Live, love, bark! 🐾
HuMom likes it but I’m not a fan of any moving vehicle 🚗
Are we there yet🤢
💜nose nudges💜
Sam is the same way. LOVES the idea of riding but freaks out as soon as the key is turned. #Knucklehead
I’m with #Knucklehead 🐾💜🐾
I’m with #Knucklehead
That’s even smaller that the Goggomobile :o)
It sure is adorably cute, even if small. Sometimes, those little cars are deceiving, my MG Midget easily accommodated people well over 6 feet tall. 😉
Such a cute little car. I think I have to get myself a drifurrs license😹Pawkisses for a Happy Thursday🐾😽💞
We’d love to see you behind that wheel!
I think I got that as a rental car once…
I would so love to have one to tool around in. Think scampering. Much like your squirrels. 😃
I don’t know how comfy that ride would be! LOL!
It might be a tad rough over cobblestone streets. 🤣
If I ever won powerball, I would never drive again. Except maybe that car. I’d drive to get the Sunday papers, and keep it parked in the garage the rest of the week.
Wouldn’t it be a blast to toddle around in that sweet ride? With or without a lottery win!
It’s a toddle alright. Like a Weeble on wheels, LOL
But only 3 wheels! 🙃 🚗
So no sharp turns is what you’re saying.
Avoiding all turns is probably a smart strategy.
OMD…I think Rosy and Arty may fit…but I don’t think I would LOL!
Hee, hee. I’d love to see Rosy and Arty hanging out the windows. Now that would be a riot.
That looks like it would be fun to take on a little cruise around town!! 🙂
Wouldn’t that be a blast?
So cute!!! Love the details. We have a toy and doll museum in Kansas City that the grands love to visit (and Mom too).
Woos – Lightning, Misty, and Timber
That little car captivated my imagination so much, I forgot to tour the museum!
Now that made me immediately smile and giggle.
Yay-that’s the best kind of image to my way of thinking.
A toy museum! I wonder if they have a feline toy place. This is one small car….with a door at the front….maybe this is how one is supposed to get in and out. It’s funny.
Shoko
And just 3-wheels!
That little car looks like a toy!
Now that’s something new to me: I didn’t know they had a toy museum in Trier.
As to the song: I don’t know it at all.
But, from my younger days, I do know that car. I can’t figure out, though, if in the picture it’s the BMW Isetta or the Heinkel Kabinenroller. In the title picture of the song/video it certaily is the BMW. Both, btw, were known as “Schlaglochsuchgeraet” [pothole search machine] because, even if you were able to get the pothole between the front wheels you’d surely hit it with the rear ones.
🙂
I like that expression. Poor thing would get completely swallowed up in Denver’s potholes!
🙂
Anybody (apart from me) remember this (song starts at 1:30)
I’m familiar with a slightly different version here down in the states. It was with a Little Nash Rambler. 🙂
🙂
It looks like an Isetta. 4 high school students could pick it up and carry it. My peep ought to know, his dancing class instructor couldn’t find her Isetta one day and then couldn’t figure out how it got to the back of the building on its own.
I think you’re right, Kismet. I think my source was mistaken. 😉
What an adorable little car! Mom thinks the Smart Cars are cute too.
Maybe I’ll show a photo of a Smart car from Hamburg between a couple of regular sized cars next time. ☺️
I remember the Bubble Car! My uncle had one when I was a child. In the UK you didn’t need a car driving licence for them but could drive them on a motor bike licence.
I think I may have a similar photo of a bubble car when I was a wee kidlet in Germany. It was only slightly bigger.
I like it!
That’s not a Messerschmidt bubble car, is it? A friend had one in our student days…it had no reverse so he had to carry a broomstick to push it off against walls when it was parked…
Where in the world would you put a broom?! You almost can lift it and put it in your pocket. Would definitely save on parking meter fees. Yes, it is a Messerschmidt bubble car-only one tire on the back end.
Nothing was beyond that man….went on to serve in the S.A.S. and in later life became a housing officer in London. His solution to complaints of vandalism and harrassment of tenants was to assemble some of his old service friends…..who dealt with it.
Sounds like the perfect person to have in every neighborhood. 😇
I think you’ll find that the pic is of a Heinkel bubble car. A friend of mine had one (a very long time ago) and, just for a joke …. a few of his friends parked cars very close on both sides of it, and then lifted the Heinkel to turn through 90 degrees i.e. the door (and only way in) was facing and very close to one of the parked cars! They had a laugh watching him try and figure out how he was going to get in to it! 🙂
Beasts! But very funny!
That’s rather mean. But funny.
No, it’s not a Messerschmitt. In those, the people sat one behing the other. In this here [either a BMW Isetta or a Heinkel Kabinenroller] poeple sat side by side.
I was told it was a Messerschmidt by a local person but maybe it’s a Isetti.
The Messerschmidt was designed just like the cockpit of its namesake fighter plane of WWII. To get in, one had to open the roof and climb in, and then pull the roof down. If you google images of Messerschmidt bubble car you will get a better idea. 🙂
Exactly.
I am sure he only had one seat in his…though he was a hefty chap,being a rugby player…
Surprisingly some of the littlest vehicles can be remarkably roomy inside. I had a friend who comfortably road around in a Mini Cooper and he was 6’7″ tall!
Oddly enough we passed one yesterday…here, of all places!
Wow…that is just too cool.
All we need now is a picture of a Robin Reliant. Until you have driven down a country road in an RR with grass down the middle you do not know what driving is…
Dear lord. Those cars seem beyond strange to me!
OMG! Are you sure this “car” didn’t just break apart when he got in? 😀
{Chortle}
😀
Do wheelbarrows break apart with hefty rugby players? 🤣
Depends on the heftiness, doesn’t it?
No…..it did many a mile…but never with a passenger, to my knowledge!
🙂
👍🏻Right you are. From the images I found, it seems to be the BMW Isetta. Either way, it’s beyond adorably cute. And like you noted, makes a great paper weight! 😆
🙂
I would put that thing in my trunk as a spare.
Bwahahaha!
😀
And you never needed to worry about parking: you could simply take it into your office and use it as a paperweight! 😀 What an advantage!
Bwahaha. Stick it in your back pocket! Done.
😀
Hahaha.
🙂
please tell me it’s full of poodles!
Not sure you could get many poodles in there.
You could break all sorts of traffic laws in that and it is too cute to be stopped for a ticket.
Totally!
The police could laugh themselves silly before issuing a ticket.
I’m not sure I could get into that car. I’m old and not as flexible as I once was. It’s cute though.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, my friend. ♥
Thank you for hosting. Actually some of those little cars have a surprising amount of room. The getting out part is the real trick! Happy mid-week.
That is a, um, most interesting vehicle!
Whenever I see this image, I have to chuckle. That was the tiniest car I’ve ever seen. No doubt with as much zip as 16 hamsters can muster.
Honestly… I don’t think it’s even allowed to be called a car! 😉
It was like a toy. Adorably cute and I could picture the owner zipping through the traffic to run errands.
No kidding! Must be perfect as a messenger…
Grub Hub, here I come!
Ha ha!!
one of my great uncles had such a car … they even visited lake garda with it…. idk how they made it over the Brenner Pass …
Aren’t they a hoot? Makes the Smart car look big! I’m sure they had to add a few extra hamsters and gave them a running start to climb over passes. 🤣
