Just outta curiousity, Does anyone else name their cars (ie, Elanor from Gone In 60 Seconds) my brother calls his 19705 triumph Donald, but i was wondering if anyone else names there car in a similar fashion?
The General named my car is called a "Holden" ;) ;)
It really varies just depending on how they are running. lol.
I name them all!
Fred the F-One Hundred
Ginger (the F100 Tub Trailer - cause she wouldn't be stepping out without Fred)
Red Zed R - ZZR1100 Kawasaki
Harry N Wagon - EK Wagon (original rego HNW)
Henry - EK Sedan (Harry's little brother)
Russ - the EK Ute

"oh no, not another shitheap old Holden ::)")
The other's called "the baitwagon"...

you assume correctly, Paul
however, the "baitwagon"
could possibly have a magical allure to very young ladies...
(if they were blind, stupid, and had no sense of smell)
(of course, the above comment refers to the drivers issues; certainly not the "baitwagon's")
I have GOA, because of the number plate.
Fiona the wagon, but spelt FEowna
Rhowna my Road Haven Caravan

I wondered the same thing in 2004.
Have a look at this board for plenty of responses: http://fefcholden.org.au/forum/index.php/topic,4651.0.html (http://fefcholden.org.au/forum/index.php/topic,4651.0.html)
Makes for some good reading.

Nothing to hard in my naming process.

My ol girl is called "OLIVIA", my wife and daughter named it. If I had another little girl that would have been the name. SO they named the car instead.
I have a Black Grand Cherokee called "BAA BAA" (The kids sing "Baa Baa Black Jeep" all the time)
The Astra is "Alison"
I just bought a new Jeep grand Cherokee and its called "Dan". Its named after The the BCF add with the silver grand cherokee (identical to mine) where the the bloke gets out and is "catching up with friends" infront of a mansion. The macho BCF bloke says
"THAT'S NOT LIVING DAN!!"
FC's name is Frankie (FranChi). Wife has called the FC by this name since 1987.
Also have a 'Lola' the Corolla.
