Mine is affectionately called "The Beast"


Calling it a girls name and spending alot of time with it (as you do) just seemed a little on the odd side. :wub:

I thought it was a girly thing to name your car, but you guys have proved me wrong on that one! :wub:

As I havent got mine yet and driven it about I havent got to know it so I cant name it yet, I wasnt even planning on it to be honest but I suppose I should really. Does it have to be a girl? I know ships and things are always reffered to as "Her" or "She", is that the same for cars then? All the cars I have come across have usually been a her (shes a beaut etc etc) but could it be a bloke?!

Oh and Pavel............................love the name of your Mini! Stacey, best name in the world that! :grin:

My mighty mini is called Flakey, you'd understand why if ya saw the paint job on the rear arches!!
Bit of a unisex name but its refered to as a she, the idea being if ur a man u call ur mini a she, and if ur a woman you call him a he. At least thats what I thought! But be cautious lads, because some girlfriends dont like you having another woman about the house!

My blue one is the big Mini, my red (ish) one is the little Mini... The blue one has 12" wheels and newer, comfier, bigger modern seats, and the little one has 10" wheels and 1982-era smaller seats! Logical, really - although I do get some stares when I refer to the little Mini as opposed to the big one!
