SoulSearcher Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Our MR2 is called REAPER, and my old Bluebird was called BINKY - if you're a Terry Pratchett fan this doesn't need explaining (our dog is called Gaspode!!!!), In the Discworld series, There was a book called Hogfather, and Binky was the Reaper Man's Horse (a white horse) hence my bluebird is called Binky and the MR2 is Reaper. I'm still thinking of a name for my rolla (I secretly call her bubby when I give her hugs) - when I first bought her she was going to be a he, but I changed my mind :) So still trying to create an apt name.

KE70-from-mt-panorama Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 My corolla hasnt got a name yet but my mate has got a 1977 celica named "Smokey McBlows-alot". It blows alot of blue smoke on start up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 my last car was a bluebird wagon called the 'mattywagon' The ke30 is dubbed 'kermi' cos thats what my mates call it when they pay it out. I call it 'greeny', and the ke25 is called 'bluey'. The skyline is called the 'the dunger', or the 'fag mobile', cos it is a hard car to respect.

Joch666 Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 My first Cressida was named Schrodinger because we never knew if it would start or not. My VH Commodore was Siggy (short for Sigmund) because the number plate started with "IDD" and so was either that or "the id car". Otherwise my cars get names based on their personality - and every car has one :kiwi: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soyboy Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 yeh def agree with joch666 about the cars personality. It's almost as if they choose their names! haha My rolla is called Nellie because she's cute and grandma-ish. I had a torana before that called PITA - pain in the *ss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7shades Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 My old Ke70 wags was "The Brown Hornet"... named in a rare and spectacular moment of creativity... and also cos it was brown. Fans of bill cosby's acclaimed and topically poignant cartoon "Fat Albert" will remember the character well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbutch Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 mine is called abandoned cause thats how i got it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Bastard Customs Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Well the KE70 gets called lots of things depending on how shes behaving (both positive and negative) but usually "my girl" "basil 2" (after a mate of mine had a ke70, named basil, that copped more abuse than it had any right to, even for a rolla) or just "da rolla". The crown generally gets called "the lounge chair" or "land yacht". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
