If take a ride in a ambulance you gotta a chance,

"when I was a young lout, it was all about sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, beer and hot Holdens. Now I'm an old lout, but I've still got the old Holdens and beer..."

One of mine's called "the shitheap"

(so named because when I told the Leader of the Opposition about my latest purchase, she said
"oh no, not another shitheap old Holden  ::)")

The other's called "the baitwagon"...

Too true. My daily driver FE has the plates FEC00L, which is pronounced "Faecal" when she gives me trouble ;D

The stockie is just called "the Ol' Girl".

some of my uninspiring car/bike names.

Dayo the mighty 'deo

The Doctor, DRZ400

Velo - pushbike

Suzy, GSX100

Betty, Bedford Van

I never named the wagon.. it was only ever "the wagon"

plus other nameless cars, who simply shall remain nameless.

Cheers

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")
