That is absolutely disgusting. Looks like some old food. Doesn't look like a dead rat or anything like that.

I'll probably go to that them der smell doctor and have my non working nose checked.

In all seriousness, potato rolled around, got squished. I probably drove around with it there for 1 week. Next week car got put on transport. Sat in 100+ degree heat in transport for next week. So now were at about 2 weeks. As soon as I got my car back I knew it smelled weird but thought maybe it was from being in the transport etc.

Waited another week or so and thought it would go away, finally used my broken non working nose and dug around a bit and then found that dem der &%#@@* potato.



broken nose....

Moral of this thread - stick a potato under your seat and 3 months later you will have the most popular thread on M3 Post

Sounds to me like it HAD to be the transport company's fault. Unless th e Porsche that was abiove your car crapped on your car (do you have a sunroof? - If so, it must have been open).

Read the thread, he found out what it was, and it was his fault pretty much, lol.

I have been laughing in my office all morning, especially at the potatOWNED pic. HAHAHAH!

Before you return your leased car to the dealer, you need to publish the VIN number on this forum so none of us buys it used from that dealer.

I know potatoes can be used in science class to create small amounts of energy but to expect it to keep your car juiced while in transit...fail

Somebody vommed. Intpok my dad's car out with some mates when I was younger. They got lairy. Helped themselves to an unattended bar. Passed out. Woke up. Had some fish and chips and one of them vomitted on the way home. Braked hard, flows into the vents in the back.. I vomited on the side of the road while trying to scoop it out with my bare hands (not drinking). It..Never came out. 2 years later (one summer) Dad sold the car. Poor car.

P.s. even now my dad won't lends me his car. It's 24 years later, I'm no longer 18 and my car is better than his.
First and last time he ever lent me the car.

What have you left behind in a car, yours or not, caught or not?
