    'Soapy' - Now that made me laugh!!

    Considering I was just looking at the Bowdens Own website and the car gleaning guides......

    Now that would be a unique name: Glean

    Naming cars does come eventually...

    *-my first 4wd was called Horrible by my mother so became HORRIE
    *-Vet was in the first Aus Mil vehicles into Vietnam so is called VET
    *- I have two unnamed 1956 109s --one will likely become JUAN as in "Series Juan."
    *- My 110 is called BEAR because he is big and white and I bought it from Bundaberg Rover...what else in bundaberg is big and white?
    *- My old 110 was Larry... yeah a tad obvious...

    If its a girl it could be SALLY as in SALLY HULL (a bit of a tribute to Sollihull where they are built!)

    If you cannot get used to the clutch at first you might want to call it BUGS as it hops down the road??

    give it time it'll come and maybe not the first one but soon enough it'll feel right..

    And the smile? never goes.

    Mine was nameless for a year. Then, out of the blue, I started calling her Biddy, after my dear departed Barb Kelpie.
    Cheers, Billy.
    Keeping it simple is complicated.

    We kind of rushed in, and started calling our 110 wagon "Vincent". It never quite stuck with me, and one day a miraculous sex change occurred, so we now love our "Agnes".

    Cheers

    Named mine Elizabeth, didn't like it much.

    After a couple of months while on a trip my mates gave my car the radio code name of "The Toad", for all of its greeness, lumps, and "beauty"

    I like it, don't really see defenders as girls so "The Toad" is suitably non gender specific.
    Cheers

    I agree that you should wait and a name will turn up.

    Mines the "Deefer" or "D'Fer" and definitely a female. She's a complete bi*ch when cold. But if you warm her up a little she's very accommodating.
