What's yours called?
Options
Do you give your cars names? My current fleet is (somewhat unimaginitively):
Lexy the Lexus
Olive the Volvo
Cleo the Clio
Dipsy the Jaguar (bit of a drinker)
...and past friends have included:
Lucy the Toyota Estima
Mitzi the Mitsubishi Sigma
Gordon the Granada
Hearne the Hunter
My first car, a Triumph 1300, was called Hilary after my favourite barmaid
