I'm on my 4th car and have never named any car I've had. I tend not to keep them long enough to feel it's fair to name them... makes it harder to get rid of them then... Like a pet dog :lol:
Hoping to get car number 5 before Christmas! :D






not gonna name that either :p

:lol: kinda... that and trying to pull myself out of the red at the moment! :-? :-(
I have a big car with big car insurance price on it... so looking for something smaller and cheaper to run...

If I *was* to name my present car I'd call it "Amplo", which is big in Portuguese! :lol:

My car is a Peugot 206 called Clive and my friend has a Micra called Hattie. I think the names Hattie and Clive go quite well together when we're out on the road!

My car has a mans name coz its diesel and it sounds manly when you start it up, not quiet and serene like most petrol cars. :D

I've named most of my cars apart from the nasty piece of Far Eastern trash that's been trying to kill me for the last 12 months.

A Reliant Regal called L'Escargot
A pair of violently coloured Citroen GSs called The Yellow Peril and The Mean Green Machine
An Austin Maxi called Jemima
A Fiat 127 called The Flea
A Lada Riva called Babushcar
A Citroen 2CV called Cynthia
A little old pastel metallic green Fiesta called Fernando
And now my lovely Volvo is called Helga...

I am very sad and am having therapy.

My first car was a red Fiesta "Harrier" - I suppose it was a special edition so named it Harrier / Harriet.

My second car was a Peugeot 306 Diesel - so we called him Percy.

Our current car - ummmmm - can't really recall what we call it!

A friend of ours drive a car that is shaped like a box - so we call it "the box on wheels" - we haven't told him yet though!!!

my mum has a very sad obsession with trevor brooking (some random footie player) so every car she has is called trevor.
except we had a little old mini with really bad suspension that we called tigger and a seat alhambra that we called jumbo ...

my dad doesnt name his cars (i think he thinks its too childish or something)

My first car was a 1980 Datsun Cherry.

It was named "Illegitimate Child" the Datsun.

It just rolled off the tongue one day, and just stuck.

Haven't named my car as such but certainly called some of my cars names in the past!! (probably due to my Italian car obsession - they have a habit of breaking down frequently and expensively)


Although my first car (an orange VW Beetle born in the same year as me) went by the name of "Betsy":-?

Mines called " the sewing machine" because thats what it sounds like. Its only a little old metro but it goes and its mine so I dont care when the local School kids laugh when it grounds on the speed bumps outside the school! :)

Only had my new car for a week when someone drove into the side of it :x So i've not named it, it could be a written off so I would be a bit sad to say that it might be going to car heaven without a name:(
