    This thread reminds me of an ad campaign run by Renault a few years ago for the Renault 5. They had posters up saying thing like "I call mine Nippy because its so cool" and so on.

    One graffitti artist sprayed a poster with
    "I call mine clitoris because every cúnt has one"

    Didn't have a name for mine up to now but after reading this have decided on "slicka" - that's what the kids called it before the could fully pronounce "Celica".

    My old Civic (4dr family saloon - not boy racer version!) was christened the "Barney Mobile" by my so called friends. Funny story was that I always thought it was Navy but I'm colour blind and it was actually Purple - hence the Barney reference!

    That's one beautiful Citroën, ds20 - you can feel the pride through the screen :D

    Forgot to put the name for the moped in the earlier post - alternatively 'Ninja-ped' or 'Sparky' (cause it's electric and totally silent)...

    Seconded. That's a lovely car my friend. And so shiny.

    Thanks Ambro & Magpie- I know I go on about it a bit much. Pride would be misplaced - I got the car like this and the looks are not of my doing. Even a rusty DS looks beautiful. I'm in the middle of a war trying to keep her looking this good.

    BTW: It's so shiny because it had just been washed.

    AKA the Black Goddess :)

    Wishing you and every other DS owner in the world the very best of luck in keeping them on the road, looking great for a very long time to come

    My campervan (Isn't there a universal law that campers must have names) Is Helga because she was originally Swedish and imported to Ireland from there. She is also big and powerfull.... the automotive equivelant of a big blonde busty Swedish Lady of viking proportions. When I have finished transforming her into a 70s US Custom van passion wagon she will then be known as the BITCHF*CKER 5000 just cos it sounds good. see www.vannin.com if you want to understand what I'm on about.

    Haven't named my daily driver yet other than Scimmy cos it's a Scimitar.
