Can you pull in a Skoda?

Hi fella's

still new to Briskoda, but I just fancied asking this question, and see what sort of response I'd get.

Have any of you (male or female) who drive a skoda been able to pull anybody?

See, i'm by no means a love doctor, I'm pretty average lookin, and am not the loud type, but when I used to pull up near a load of girls when I used to drive my Honda Civic Sport, I used to get a few, "Nice Car" comments.

Since buying my brothers Fabia VRS, all I seem to get is horified expressions from the nice looking girls, and smirks from the others

Just wondering if buying this car (which I think is great by the way) is going to seriously damage my love life?

Is there any hope for the future?
Please reassure me

Maybe not all members go for the opposite sex.

The pick up used to get a few waves, mybe out of sympathy though.

Re: Can you pull in a Skoda?

Oh yeah, I didn't think of that!

That can be my chat-up line from now on :-)

"Can I just say that you look absoloutly gorgeous, sooooo - do you drive a skoda?"

RIGHT - I'll redefine yet again...

Have any members had any luck pulling (male or female HUMANS) whilst driving thier skoda?

How's that?

Re: Can you pull in a Skoda?

Slap a yellow taxi light on the top and you will have women standing on the side of the road flagging you down.... what more could you ask for ? Could even make a bob or two on your first date

Ferraris don't even get that.

Re: Can you pull in a Skoda?

Judging by the TG audience, I would say not ... seriously uncool But imho, I buy a car for how it drives, rather than the attention it attracts

Re: Can you pull in a Skoda?

The Light on top of your Skoda would certainly help you to ‘pick-up’ women. And the Police have unmarked Skodas so they can ‘pull’ unsuspecting members of the public….they’re not bothered about which gender mind you. Think I’ve been sniffing the paint thinners a bit too much today.

Of course he couldn't, but more to do with not having a tow bar fitted.
