  • What do you call / have you named your car ?

    Just out of curiosity...
    Does anyone else name their cars?
    I get very attached to all my cars (among other things) and they all have a first name.

    I'll get the ball rolling:

    Polo - Veronica
    VR6 - Vish
    MK1 76 GTI - Helga
    MK1 77 GLS - Betty
    Skyline R32 GT-R - Zilla
    Datsun 240K - Dotti

    Does anyone else do this, or am i just mad?
    I'm going to the pub... I may be some time...

      Errrm, I would say you are just mad Stephy!! Although it is a girl thing I think.

      I get attached to a good car but I never lose sight of the fact that it is a machine!

              People have suggested many names for my car since I've had it, most of them girls names also. I don't like it at all...it isn't a girl and I don't think it needs a name haha. It's just my little beast

                            Tig or Tiggy.
                            Not very imaginitive.

                            Sometimes call it the "GTI on Stilts."
