I love this thread!

We used to have an Escort called Eddie.
A Pulsar called Abby (ABY**X)
My old Golf was the Cutie (AQD**X)
The Jetta is Madam Jetta.
I want to call the MK3 Mark but there is disagreement in the family. My husband thinks it's female.

And I have never had any desire to name any of the company cars I've ever driven.

Love it!
I call my husband's work van Marlene and the back up Betsie - it's actually caught on at his work... Scary!

When my wife was at teachers college in the early 80s, a fellow student had an HD Holden called Bruce.

Bruce Holden even had a library card.

At the moment, LIL BASTARD,

PROBLEM CHILD is also acceptable

I think Collin is a good name, for anything except a human.

I still maintain naming cars is a girl thing. I'm have a rather unhealthy romantic relationship with my GTI, with it's sexy wide round rear end and...

what...

but I have never named it.

It was suggested when I bought it, that it's name would be Gerti...
I don't think so!
