What's yours called?

[elemwalker]

OK, admit it, I'm sure we all have names for our Pride's & Joy.. (Guys, I mean the cars by the way)
My Cab 504 is called Peggy..

In fact I've always named my cars, I've had a 'BB', a 'Willow' (inherited that one), a 'Colin', a 'Captain', an 'Aggi', and an 'Alan'...etc etc

In my opinion the name should always relate to the make or model, hence 'Peggy the Peugeot'.

I'm always surprised when I meet people who've never considered giving their cars a name...
..But maybe I'm alone on this one...
..someone please back me up..!

ha! My firsst ever car - a mk1 Renault 5 850cc was called Hannibal (for some forgotten reason). After that no cars I've had have had names until the ZS, which I call "the ZS" and my wife and two girls call "the Toot-Toot Car"

how dignified.

and the peugeots:
supa pug or pugsley (205)
frank (206)
wombat (205)
Cj (205 Cj)
Miles (205 gti) 150,000 miles old!
wunda pug (205 rallye)
tin tin the tank (106 diesel)
dave (306 lumbering diesel)
and finally...
lurch the 104 - named because of poor handiling due to having one odd sized tyre!

glad to see we arent the only ones!!!!! its easier when you have a couple of the same type of car at a time to give them names

I'm not sure why, but having read this thread last week, I woke up this morning and thought that my new car should be called Bozo
