Doing a crossword today got me cogitating.

Clue: curved sword
Answer : Scimitar

A classic sports car made by, [ahem] Reliant.

Great car but an even more brilliant evocative name.

Reliant shot itself in the foot with both the throbbin' and the Kitten but they were the first to use Fox and they produced the Sabre.

I raise you one of mine, Matra Simca Bagheera and another, Gilbern Invader.

I did like the Nissan Cedric, Toyota ISIS is quite unfortunate though. The JDM world is full of some amazing names. Isuzu Wizard etc.
