Thread: Naming cars with people's names makes me angry!

Planning on shooting me then?
My Disco has a name.
It rarely gets referred to by it's name though.

No, In my empire I don't have to get my hands dirty. That's what minions are for

1st world problem

My landrovers have personalities, so they get named also :-). Each to their own I say....

Better shoot me and burn Lizzy as well

Umm. No. You are anthropomorphising (giving human traits to) mechanical objects.

X2.

Still it would give the media something different to report for a change

People who advocate murder should be locked up and the keys thrown away.

Then we can all go about naming or not naming our cars as we please.

Just for your information many of my vehicles are named.

• My 6x6 Defender is "Ikea" because it arrived as a flat pack.
• My RRc is "Vague", because the illiteration of the RR model "Vogue" apealed to my weird sense of humour.
• My SIII FFR is "Ffreddy" (after Freddy Mercury) because it has a voice (working green radios)
• The No.5 trailer that goes behind Ffreddy is "Mary Austin" because Freddy and Mary were coupled for years.
• My ex-RACQ 1951 is "Bemboka" because that's where I found it.
• My first SIIA 109 station wagon was "Kay" because Kay-Hertz my Budget.
• The 109 Hard top I had at the same time was "Avis", because it was my other car (when Kay was off the road, some may remember the Avis trademark)
• My first 1950 model was "Bexy" because its number plate was BXY-159
• My D4 doesn't have a name, because an appropriate name hasn't come about yet.
