    My cinquecento was called Chinky, how bad is that!!!?!?

    I then had my fav car ever, a white fiesta, this was called TrixieBelle (my uni car!)

    My Astra was Aston

    My Fiat Punto was Sparky (as in the paperwork it was electric blue, i thought electricians, sparky, see?!)

    My Clio is called Beesley, after Max Beesley (as the number plate reads MXB!)

    Mr F does not understand the need to name cars tho i named his focus Fiona, after me, cos 'shes a good ride' ? (true story!)

    Violet - Although she came with the name, as the kids of the previous owner had named her. As she's a purpley blue colour it was a very good choice so I kept it!

    I do this too - much to the dismay of my OH!

    I've had Molly (no reason!), Lola (cos she was so pretty - therefore a 'showgirl'), Sparkle and current one is Zelda.

    My husband hates me naming his cars, current one doesn't have a name but have decided that the inbuilt touch screen sat-nav thingy is called Penelope as she sounds terribly posh!

    My first car was called Bernie. When I traded him in I wrote his name all over the paperwork so hopefully the new owners got the message!

    I now have Sandy. Named after footballer Craig Alexander. But Craig isn't the best name for a car, (neither is Alexander) so he's called Sandy. I had decided on his name before I got him and was delighted to realise that he has an "S" on each side as he is a Corsa S.

    He even got a valentines card from Isobella - the sexy wee Fiat 500 he flirts with in my work car park...

    Haha - I work with all guys who obviously think it's stupid to name and humanise cars, so the other girl in the office (Isobella's Mum!) and I take it one step too far just to annoy them!
