oh yes! a few issues that make me not so pleased! it has a trip to ford to see if we can turn these names around!



Even after 8+ years of ownership, 1000s of miles of "faithful" service, all the blood sweat and tears, work, money and (my) ideas that have gone into the (unique) car -

Its still an "it" and does not have a name -apart from "the Mondeo" (its a "man" thing) :lol:

My girlfriend insisted on a name for it - as did my family. Family because my old Punto earnt the name Brum (or "Crum" by my other half...that was before we were together too - turned out to be more accurate as it did start crum-bling around my ears)

The Focus was called Freddie and Lottie called her Fiesta Frankie. Her family have always named their cars lol

I tend to just call it "the car" or "the Focus"

Her previous car was called Norman (R-reg Saxo) because that was the previous owners name. And the family car is a Meriva (as were the peevious two Zafiras) called Jeffrey...because it came from Jeffrey's Farm.

I don't have a name for it any more,

But before I got it remapped I used to call it "tafuck"

When accelerating from 1st to 2nd I'd say "come on tafuck"

But since the remap I don't talk to it anymore lol

The Puma was named Barbie coz the wing mirrors had faded from red to a dull pink. The st 2 i call lil' Bandit as it gets away like one :ph34r:

I must be a bit slow today i didnt "get" it at first -sounds better when you say it out loud - ha ha :lol:

Real men don't name their cars LOL :lol:

My dear ol' Mum has started referring to the Focus as "The Beast"...not really sure why :-/

Julia because it sounds like a hot naughty woman just like my zetec S. I get a naughty feeling roughing her up on the roads similar to the naughty feeling i get turning ESP off

Simple and to the point.

Pup.

Mine is named Casey as the start of the reg is KC so yeah.

My friends affectionately called my old car Nigella, from the NG numberplate. Current car hasn't really been named, although maybe I should continue on the theme of daytime Food Network personalities?

Mines Bernard. Cause the licence plate is SSG. Bernard matthews Sausage lol

Walls jumped out at me before Bernard :ph34r:

Only ever named one vehicle, it was a 1989 landrover 90 i spent two years rebuilding, she was called Martha and even to this day family friends and even work colleagues say to me saw Martha everytime shes spotted.
