Mine's just called 'The Suicide Machine', as in Born To Run, by Bruce Springsteen.

In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway american dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
Its a death trap, it's a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we're young
`cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

Also, because I'm sure my Mini is trying to kill me.


When either the radiator bottom hose or the clutch pedal clevis pin are involved, my Mini is simply known by a stream of expletives.

My green mayfairs named Flynn by my wife because there was an abandoned greyhound in the local paper called Flynn on the day we bought the Mayfair and its green=Irish and Flynn sounds Irish and my wife is half Irish. Makes sense really eh ?

[bellicose]

Mine has been named Bellicose, it's not finished yet.............well haven't even started lol. Anyway Bellicose means, inclined or eager to fight, aggressively hostile, belligerent, pugnacious, warlike or hostile in manner or temperament. So that gives you an idea which direction the car will be going.
