The toaster.

It looks like a toaster, plus the air con doesn't work and two of the windows don't open so in the recent heat wave I've been pretty well toasted in it.

The car. Sometimes I say my car or your car when talking to DH.

Fishy. Because when you quickly glance at the reg it looks like it says fishy.

Not because she smells fishy.

Big car and little car. Kids call little car the tin can (which whilst not entirely inaccurate, ) strikes me as disrespectful...so I tell them off about it

The Pig.

Trying to get it moving is like prodding a sleeping pig.

Betty.... She hates hills and would prefer to pootle (not exactly sure how to spell that) around town, unfortunately that isn't possible with what I need so we aren't well suited but we are stuck together until I pay off the loan.

Old boy. He’s not that old though.

Matthew, he’s a Mercedes, sexy and smooth and reminds me of Matthew mcconnaghey.
