I was never really a fan of Noddy, pictured here with his cruelly-named friend Big Ears and his little yellow taxi-cab. I'm assuming it's a private hire vehicle although I've never spotted any taxi-plates on it. In fact, it is probably illegal because a two-seater with bugger-all luggage space is going to struggle to get the appropriate licencing - unless the laws in Toytown are particularly lax. I'm guessing Noddy must also be bribing P.C.Plod as he always turns a blind eye when he sees Noddy working.
Maybe Noddy's had enough now anyway because his car appears to be up for sale. the Telegraph have the story today. I think the author may be getting Noddy mixed up with Pinocchio though - I didn't think Noddy was made of wood.
Apparently, this is worth £25000.
It is actually a 1969 Fiat Gamine Vignale - a car I'd never heard of that is based on a Fiat 500 - the original one. If you see the rear of the car it is quite obvious it is based on a Fiat 500 - the original one.
If you put that registration number into mycarcheck.com, though, it says it is a Fiat Coupe.
No it isn't, mycarcheck - THIS is a Fiat Coupe...
A much more attractive proposition than the Noddy Car and a lot cheaper too.
Now, with £25000 to play with, Noddy should be able to afford something a bit nicer to take Big Ears out into the woods in - not that there's anything dodgy about their relationship - just ask Noddy himself.
