You have a name for your car, don't you? :wink:
What's the name of your car, and why?
Example, my mates old driver was foom - because of the reg (think it had f-e-u-m in it.)
-
The car my father had when I was a child, an old black Ford Anglia, was called Stanley. No idea why.
Is this all because of the "Betsy" stuff on that other thread?
Yes, my first Fiesta was Miranda, "she who is worthy to be admired".
Her successor the XR2 was Ferdinand, to match.
I just decided that the R-reg Peugeot I'm driving now, if he hasn't actually been addressed as such over the years, is called Ariel. Ariel is already registered for the scrappage scheme.
The on-order GTi has to be Prospero, I suppose.
Except - my mother's Polo was Siegfried, because he was German, a brat, and went where he wanted irrespective of what anybody else thought he should be doing.
Which could open up a whole other menu for the new Golf....

lil'red - Martz, the previous owner called the car that so why change sommat that's not broke eh?

I call mine 'The Shed', because that is what it was when I first bought it and the name stuck. Although now it's anything but.....I think. :undecided:
-
My ex called the Golf gordon, god knows why.
-
Mine's called Gunther because it's a German name and begins with "G". And when I was into Mini's I've named them Huey, Ian, Basket Case, Bruce, Carrie, Mel & Henry. :nerd:
-
my bros 64 cortina is call tina :grin:
-
mine is called whythef**kwontthisthingf**kingstartagain! the last owner started calling her this before he sold her on!
-
The gf is obsessed with naming cars, all her family cars have names, her Mums is "Vera", dads is something just as stupid, hers is "Vinny" mine is "Wally"
WTF :shocked:
-
The Skoda. Mainly because it's a Skoda.........
-
My minis all had names as did the campervan but Golf GTI's are not the kind of cars to have a name, neither is a corrado.

my ex's '83 polo was called juicy by previous owners coz of a monumental fuel leak it had when we bought it
my gti has no name but i often call her pet names when i greet her
like 'mornin gorgeous' very sad i know :embarassed:
she never gets called abusive names she doesnt like it. If im good to her she is good to me :grin:
-
Mine's called Trev. When I got it I asked my other half for name suggestions and he came up with Trev, which I liked so kept it.
Only after I asked why and he said it was because his ex girlfirend's dad was called trev and he was 'angry, red and loud' just like my car! So now it's named after my partner's ex's dad. Which is weird.
-
'The Syncro' or 'The Golf'
Syncro is also the name of our cat, thanks to the other half. I'm still waiting for the first hilarious cat/car confusion situation to arise.

ROFL.
I sometimes pat my golf on the dash, and say "awww, were you thirsty?" when I fill her up. Simply because it annoys the crap out of my mate. :grin:
