No kidding, this was an ad for women's shoes by Giuseppe Zanotti!

I'm not sure how this accessory actually works or what it is for but I like the way it looks.

When my car and I were new the accessory was pretty decorous:

Indeed, but accessories don't get to ride in the passenger seat, usually.
No candy bar.

No candy bar.
That's fine because:
Candy
Is dandy,
But liquor
Is quicker.

Thanks to Otto for removing the picture of this tastefully decorated Mini bonnet.
I was weighing whether to do it myself (but have only been stopped by a strong concern for individual freedom ;D)

The problem to me is not that it was in the wrong section. The existence of a "risque" section is sheer hypocrisy. It's more that this makes us Autopuzzlers look like male chauvinist pigs, so to say. It's not that we fear to be caught by our boss looking at sexy pictures. It's that we complain that we don't have many girl members, and it been rightly noted that this thread might have something to do with it.
When I started this topic, I felt that the images I posted, and most of those posted by others, were rather cute and non offensive to women. Now did I grow up from a 1960's "liberated" baby-boomer to a politically correct and puritan old timer? Because I don't like many of the pictures posted here lately. But in fact, I think I have felt the same for many many years: I never was much moved by a girl in a bikini reclining on a car hood with a horny smile, trying to sell me her can of oil or brake fluid.

Spirits that I've cited my commands ignore

I guess it would be sound to give a certain time frame for the pics to be posted here. (1930-1970 ?)
It would eliminate unwished media.  ;)

And of course, what does an average sporty girl when she eyes a fine sporty car like this AMX...?
