Frog Eyed Porsche

Gassage · July 7

So, I've been assisting my Auntie move house today from deepest Shropshire.

I loaded some bags into the car for the tip- and as I did so, so two froggy/toady things ran out into the footwell, up my pedals and into the deepest darkest parts of the dashboard.

God knows how I get them out. They're still there, somewhere.

And yes, I'm hopping mad, I to-ed the car to get rid of them etc etc....

I'm sure the heat of the engine from a decent run will sort it. You'll then just need a Frenchman to deal with disposal.

Only if it's an old 928 .........the engine is in the back unless it's a baby Porsche and the engine is in the middle

......Actually it could be a Macan or Cayenne thinking about it

Or a Panamera or a Taycan...

Did you get enough of a good look to be able to identify the species?

If so I'm sure there will be resources online that will allow you to practice the mating call of that species and entice them out.

Whatever you do, DO NOT lick the pedals until you are sure they aren't the kind of frogs that have nasty skin secretions.

That's the anura nigellus faragicus.

Aren't you mistaking that for the Wide Mouthed Frog?

best handling maybe but not the soul of Porsche like a GT3

Cayenne S V8 Tdi.
And the best Porsche ever made is a 968 Turbo. If you can find one...

If you find them don't kiss them; they could turn into a handsome prince and that might be awkward to explain....

I keep reading this thread title and thinking it’s something about Farage, but not quite getting what Porsche is a typo for…

Try to get them out. See if you can tempt them with food. Frogs and toads are lovely creatures.

I'd try water too, they won't do well for long without it, poor little sods

Howdy, Stranger!
