Is the car a boy or a girl.

My car is black and cream so it is a Zebra, and obviously I call him Cedric. I love Cedric

Clockwork or Dickinson.
Can someone explain why 'Dickinson' please?

David Dickinson is a TV presenter who is quite orange with fake tan.

Thank you Mouse.
That was rather obscure!

I had a black Fiat 500. I called him Nero.

I now have a Volvo XC60. His name is Sven.
