Whats your car called....?

Recommended Posts

I have been having this conversaion with my boyfriend and his mum. She has a t25 camper which she calls Brian after the snail on Magic Roundabout because her van's so slow. My boyfriend has just got a t25 van which he called Ian one day as a joke and its kinda stuck.

My reg ends in CYL so they reckon I should call it Cyril but I don't like that, plus I think my car's female. So I was thinking maybe Cilla (plus its black!)

No actual name but she is ALWAYS referred to as a she. And I can't understand why people would find that strange....

 

However when I had to think about what her reg no is (no problem now, had her a long long time..) I used to think of her as a SmeGing Motor... reg is SGM :)

 

try posting that again without the typo!

The 1970 Beetle I used to own had the reg starting with CYL so thought it should be Cyril, but the previous owner had called it Wilma.

 

Not got a name for my C yet. When I get my personal plate put on it will probably get called C6.
