Kazz, hope you don't mind my asking, but, as a non-driver, I've always wondered: why do people name their cars?

I have no idea Eileen...you just do or don't as the case may be maybe its because we spend time in them and they do have quirks or their own...;)

My first car was a Ford Escort MkII called Gordon..as in Flash Gordon...because it had been "done up by a young lad" :).
My next was an old Austin Allegro called Prudence....it suited her. :)
My next a Nissan Sunny...called James because it never let me down.
My next a Ford Escort brand new..called Scarlett because she was bright red.
My next a Hyundi which I hated, never named it. Got rid of it fast as I could even though it was brand new.
My next was Nissan Micra called Millie. She was little and thoroughly modern. :)
My next was the Rover who was named very swiftly Roger... following the James senario always reliable.

I havea friend who names her cars too always following flowers...and herbs ie Poppy, Sage etc.

I know a few people who name their cars may be worth a new thread itself.
