Do you name your cars?

A friend referred to his '68 diesel as "Mercy". Mine is "Grace". (Yes, there is a theological significance.)

What's yours?

I think "phoenix" would be more appropriate seeing that it essentially rose from the ashes so to speak !All that work just to call her that. :-)

"Golddigger"? Must be a chick magnet!

I named my '64 Rambler "Rose",

Rambler. . . Rose. . . Ramblin' Rose. Get it? What a sparkling wit I was in 1971.

The only car I named was my '81 Mercedes 200, I called it "Erbswurst". "Erbswurst" is German for "Pea Sausage", and a Pea Sausage is a sausage shaped bag full of ingredients for an instant pea soup.

The car got this name after a strange accident, where it rolled down a garage ramp and crashed against a wall, destroying the bonnet. I replaced the bonnet with a part from a scrap yard which was pale green...

Sorry, it was test posting only after some significant computer hardware hard- and software changes: I cancelled it but you were faster with reading than I was with cancelling...

Anyway, I have never ever named my cars.

But there were a few occasions when I talked to them... ;-)))
