[mgv8]

Out of the three TVR owners I know well (at least to say they have a name for there car) 2 call them Trevor. So what do you call yours (any car)

PS If you dont tell any one, mine is the Phooy Mobile

[Bonce]

My car is called Kylie.

My Audi is called 'the Panzer' or 'the Heinkel' by some of my mates. For some reason they think I'm going to invade Poland with it.

[Thom]

Mine is called "Flasher"

[Twin Turbo]

Mine was called "that foooken piece of sh*t".

We didn't get on and it was a stormy relationship

[JMorgan]

Mine hasn't got a name, at least it has never told me it. I will go and ask

[Don]

Ours is generally: "The Tiv". Occasionally "The Chimaera" and in humourous moments is...
"Trevor The Tivver"

Oh *dear*.

I once toyed with writing a childrens book along the lines of Thomas the Tank Engine with characters like:

Name - Character

"Katy The Chimaera" - very beautiful with a tendency to preen.
"Cyril The Cerbera" - Very fast but not too bright.
"Gary The Griffith" - Always grubby. Mechanic sort of chap.
"Trevor The Tuscan" - Upper crust kind of chap. Bit of a cad but a charmer.

There were more once but I forget. I wonder if there's a market for it with nicely done cartoons. YOu know...the TVRs foil some evil crime by going very quickly and as a reward spend the night in the factory with "Great Uncle Peter" smoking his pipe and saying good-night.

Bizarre idea I know...

See. They are alive. I'll bet when all the humans have gone away they chat to one another.

I call mine Sir because you have to treat it with respect. I can't really call it Trevor now can I?

(Trevor is a cheap English derivative of Trefor, which is the original Welsh spelling in case you were wondering).

[JMorgan]

Asked me for a Twix and told me to bugger off and find somthing better to do. Oh and put the heater on and turn the light off on the way out.

I don't think so, it's just that the English have been too polite for hundreds of years to point out that although the Welsh pronounce it correctly, they've been mis-spelling it all that time . .


Ah, yes, coat? Mine's the red Hein Gericke . .

I find most people try to make a name out some of the letters on the numberplate I know my dad is trying to name my car based on the last three letters JUF probably come up with some thing daft like Juffri.

When I had my S1 I just used to refer to it as the Tiv.

I wish mine were thus honored. My wife calls it "your stupid car". I think the old quattro does look like a panzer though (Jagdpanther specifically).

[sipow]

Some of me mates called my old Tvr S3 A "TR7"
I'll get them you'll see

[CarZee]

Hmmm me Datsun is 'R *** LDY' - certainly don't treat her like it

[smeagol]

My kit car was called Nelly because my mother thought I'd never finish it and called it my White Elephant. I haven't given names to the cars I've owned since then. The mini might get a name in the future (then again maybe not) but I do find I talk to it. (must be a sign that I'm going )
