Is this the wheel deal? Gadget inventor comes up with a thong... for your car


If you thought furry dice were rather on the tacky side - then this is not the Christmas present for you.

One crafty inventor in the U.S. has allegedly come up with the 'car thong' - a giant pair of knickers that you can stretch over the rear of a car.

It might look like an ideal present for a petrolhead but manufacturers at 'Harry Balz Novelties' have yet to confirm the outsized underwear was going into mass production after a prototype was created and modelled on a Subaru Impreza.

However there are plenty of other weird and wonderful accessories for those exhibitionists on the road.

A British website Carbuzz.co.uk has compiled some of the quirkiest presents to adorn your car. These include the Carstache - which is attached to the front grille to become a 'sensational flare piece', according to the manufacturers.

And for the snappy dresser, the ideal gift is number plate cufflinks which can be detailed to match a personal number plate.

For female motoring enthusiasts, there is a fluffy leopard print steering wheel cover and embroidered car mats with the first initial of her name.
