I can remember my dads Mk1 Cortina having a Tiger Tail hanging out of the fuel filler. Was in response to Esso's advertising campaign, "Put a Tiger in your tank"

The old boys(Sorry Middle Aged) I'm sure will come up with some more.

Mine would have to be Black and White chequered sticky tape !!...over the bonnet !

I used to mentally spec it with every car I longed after while poring over "Motor Sport" mag !

(Hardly a mispent youth was it !! )

Furry Dice, and yes I still have a pair hanging in the garage

And more spotlights the better with the plastic grills .

Bullet-hole transfers on the windows

8 track

Bullet-hole transfers on the windows

Remind me which company gave those out.

Stick on compass

Surely there was only one mod that showed you were serious about driving...

Don't forget the nodding dog on the back shelf -ages before Churchill insurance. I remember my Dad thinking our 1963 Cresta was posh because it had a clock! How times have changed.

Remind me which company gave those out.

I'm afraid these had to be bought - from the same sort of shop that sold black-and-white chequered sticky tape

Now , what car is that? .... :p

Seat covers, any colour you like, and a steering wheel cover to match

My old man bought a new Volvo about 30 years ago, remember some sort of reflective chequered tape

that came with it to stick around the (massive) bumpers, can vividly remember trying to help fit them.
