My wife and I saw this one yesterday on a pickup: LWN PLR.
We were trying to figure it out. There is a business nearby that grows grass and then cuts the sod in big rolls for landscapers

LOT2US on a Lotus Elise but compared to the other cars in the rush hour traffic this is almost as small as a Smart car and I would be scared to get squished by some SUV

Regarding Lotii (Lotuses?), I've always loved them. I saw a used one on a car lot once and stopped to check it out. After getting the key from the sales guy, I tried to get into it. Now keep in mind that I'm an American, born and raised, and we don't do "small" here. I'm not fat by any means, just "substantially American".

I first tried getting into it like a normal car, one leg first, then swing the butt in to sit, then bring the trailing leg in. The door opening is very small, and there's a large "shelf" between the driver's seat and the outer door edge. It's almost like a small tunnel. After struggling for several minutes, and laughing the whole time, I gave up. The normal way didn't work. I had to crawl head first on my hands and knees to get out. My wife said it looked like the car was giving birth to me.

After a few minutes looking at the problem, I came up with a solution. Go through the door opening head first and crawl past the drivers seat. Then, back up putting my feet down the foot well to the pedals, drop butt into seat. It worked! It was SNUG. I felt like I was in a form fitting Formula 1 cockpit. I Loved it! I wanted to go fast in it.

Reversing my entry didn't seem to work for getting out. I appeared to be lacking the necessary agility. My egress also involved me being born again, crawling head first on my hands and knees and laughing hysterically.

Alas, it was not to be. Family commitments took priority over an expensive, self indulgent toy.

I still get a chuckle when I see one go by.

saw a car with DASMYVW guess what it was :) VW Passat. I almost started hitting my head against the steering wheel because the mixture between German and English is not my thing.
