At the sprightly age of 40 my latest has a name, albeit from its previous owner, who was a girl....
Her name is lottie,

In the words of Rolf Harris (he's not a peodo yet is he?) can you guess what it is yet?

Cars that spend a long time with one family tend to pick up names...

We've had Flos the Series 2 Land Rover for 14 years smile

Named (cruelly) by Dads work mates the day after he bought her. It stands for fking Load Of Scrap... it stuck... bds.

Oddly in those 14 years she's never failed an MOT or broken down... not bad for a 53 year old work horse smile

Our campervan is called Lulu. But only because we bought her from someone called Lulu and her reg plate is LUY***X.

Never named another vehicle I have owned though.

It's something beginning with L... so it's going to be either a Lotus, a Lancia or a Lambo

My Vectra has been affectionately named 'Becky' (the vecy) by my friend and her chief mechanic. Apparently it related to the fact that It takes all my money, time, and affection and often doesn't work as intended, and is therefore a woman.

My ultima GTR is called unicorn, since you very rarely see it because it keeps fking breaking furious

My m6 was called ugly barge for obvious reasons

My 997 was called hairdryer because it sounds like one - though europipe sorted that problem with their epic exhaust system. hehe

.. And finally my old banger of a sierra 2.0GL was called the Red Ferrari because it was ... Err red .. Anyway it made me feel happier wink

Have a Ford, live in Norway so I call it the Fjord.

Missus had a Micra, now has a Corsa, but I still call it the Microbe.
