We’ve all channelled our inner Alf Stewart when jumping into a car, after it’s been sitting in the hot summer sun. 

“Strewth! That’s bloody hot!”

Okay, maybe some of us would use a few four-letter words to describe the heat, but we’ve all wondered how to keep our cars cool in the harsh temperatures.

Sejal Shah living in Ahmedabed, India has come up with a solution, by covering her Toyota Corolla in wait for it… cow poo.

We’re not joking, after using poop as flooring to keep her house cool, she thought it should have the same effect on her car.

So, her once white sedan is now coated in cow dung. 

According to Sejal, the car is so much cooler she can drive without the air con on in 45-degree heat. We have so many questions...

Will poo-covered cars catch on? Let us know in the comments.

Following a passion shared by his father and grandfather, Mitchell’s love of cars really kicked off with his Godfather’s purchase of a new Mazda RX-8. Exposure to that car changed his world forever, leading to an RX-7 obsession. To feed his automotive addiction, Mitchell decided to become a motoring journalist and made his mark at several high-profile motoring publications before landing at CarsGuide. While he is a rotary loyalist, Mitchell also has a massive love for Aussie muscle cars, and dreams of one day getting behind the wheel of a Charger R/T E49 (if anyone will let him). His other passions include Queensland, and spending Saturdays with the boys.
