I have noticed that some people on here have given their cars names.
So, is your car male or female? What is its name and why?
 
My Z hasn't got a name :p
I just say I'm going out in the Z :)
 
Neither of mine have names, just the Blue one and the Silver one.

I do refer to them as female, due to me not knowing what mood their are in until I start driving them and find out what needs replacing that month =))
 
Mine's called Ronnie (the Roadster), after Ronnie Kray. It's a Z3M, so a real brute, but also somewhat confused about its sexuality (Hairdressers car reference). Thought it was quite apt.
 
this is the only car i haven't named just gets called The Zed

my wife names all of her cars and has had:

Sybil - Citroen Saxo
Rosita - Citroen Saxo
Paddy - VW Polo
Hughbert - Golf Gti
Turk - Audi TT
Jafar - Golf Gti
Marv - BMW Mini
Bruce - BMW 1 series

I've named some of my old cars

Pepe - Renault Clio
Maggie - Mk1 Golf gti
Dot the Yacht - Audi 80 Sport Saloon
Barnie - Purple Volvo 850
 
I name all of my cars and almost without exception they are female. Bella BMW :D
 
When mine blew up in Belgium last year it was referred to that "Cooking Far" or something similar. It's usually called Rio as it's reg starts R10
 
I have never named a car, the last one was just referred to as "the Z", however I do have a name for the 2.8, was thinking of Joan, after Joan Collins because this build has been a right f***ing bi*** :D
 
We affectionately call ours Bob.
When we bought the car it had a private plate which read PCZ 303.
The 303 denoting 'Bob' and it stuck, despite us not keeping the £500 plate.

Never named any other cars we've had.

Nope never named a car just referred to as Zed
 
I've had lots of cars down the years and I've never named any of them. I once saw a line that made me smile; "Don't anthropomorphise cars, they just hate it"
 
My Titan M is called Willow thanks to my Grandson and she is most definitely female.

Ha love it, had to read that twice :D
 
Always name my cars and always female. This one is called Saffy
 
My partner tells me that the Z4 we had was definitely a female. She bases that on the fact that it was fitted with sat nav, if it had been male, it would have ignored the maps and got lost.
