Picking up a new car today which has got me thinking about it!
My previous cars were called Barney and then PJ. My less fun cars I didn't give a name to!

Last letter of the registration is first letter of the name. Male or female doesn't matter as long as it suits.

For me it's the first letter of the model. Alexa Audi & Sissy Sportage etc

Vick, owing to the fact the last part of the reg is VYK 😂

DH calls mine 'The Wheelie Bin' as it is always messy.

I realise that is not what you meant though. Grin

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 29/01/2023 15:18

my car is called The Slug, named so because of its lack of acceleration

APurpleSquirrel · 29/01/2023 15:20

Previous cars have been Dotty, Byron, & Effie.

It’s called the car

stormelf · 29/01/2023 15:27

I don't drive but previous cars my husband has had were Bobberuth and Leonard. Current car doesn't have a name though, we've had it six years now so guess it's too late to name it

Nugg · 29/01/2023 15:27

No and it's not a she or he either 🤣

Ohgoodyanotherone · 29/01/2023 15:32

Does "fucking heap of shit" count? That's what I call mine.

MyBloodyMaryneedsmoreTabasco · 29/01/2023 17:14

Of course it does. My current car is called Heidi.

Yes. I've just sold Mandy Merc, and replaced her with Tina T-Roc.

Over the years I've had Sally Saxo, Polo Pete, etc 😂
