All mine have had names, often based around numberplate if it fitted.  The notable exceptions are the 2 cars I've own that I haven't learned to love yet...  ...an old 1.8 GLSi Belmont and a 3.2 Omega Elite ::)

So, for Omegas, in order of ownership
The Silver Bullet - my beloved 1998 MV6. Its silver, and it shifts.
Redmobile - a 1996 CD. In red.
TRACTOR! - my beloved TD Elite, now Squealeys. Its, err, a tractor.
The Golden Nugget - a gold (Champayne) facelift Elite with a poo-brown facia. Now in the great car scrapyard in the sky after blowing its load up the M40 one night.
03 3.2 Elite - as yet unnamed, but unofficially, "That bloody Elite"

The advantage of only having 1 car :)


In the TB household, we tend to use whatever car is most convenient to use (basically, which has fuel, as doesn't involve too much musical chairs on my driveway ::)), so naming makes it easier...

I guess at home, they are called by their colour, ie the red one or green one. Never felt the need to name my car

My Senator and all my Omega's have been "The Beast" as it they were very masculine.

My delightful and lovely Toyota Carina II was called "Betsy" as she was soft, gentle and feminine :D :D ;)

Yeah, that was the shortened name for The Golden Nugget, I imagine a lot of people with gay champayne/oyster gold cars use that one :y
