    Good, but no....

    I am still waiting for a name that
    Hits me as fitting the car.

    But... 200 points and an elephant stamp for research and effort!

    I thought Clarkson was a Pratt also but look
    On YouTube for some stories he recorded about VC winners and
    Bravery especially during the world wars. He can be quite good
    When he behaves normally

    The Landy in "The Gods must be Crazy" was named Beelzebub if I am not mistaken. Definitely something devilish matching the vehicle itself. Always made me smile. Good naming.
