Mine's Molly (the previous owner insisted we kept the name but it suits her). My grandma calls her 'the ice mouse' because of the shape and my boyfriend's nicknames for her are generally a little less savoury. :lol: She's got a 'boyfriend' called Billy who's my dad's girlfriend's Austin Morris. Btw, apologies to the previous owner as that picture was from outside their house. I don't have any pictures of her on my computer from anywhere else.

Mine's called "Van". Not "the van" or "a van", just Van!

I used to have a customised moggy called Frank (because of Frankenstein's monster). He was a cute but angry-looking minor who donated his heart/engine so that Van could live on.

My wife gets to name all our cars and chooses the name using the year reg letter. So our D reg Traveller is called Daisy. Used to have a Beetle called Lily and a campervan called Mabel. Not to mention the Ford Pop - Betsy and a Karman Ghia called Daphne. My Midget is usually just called "The Midget" but I have been known to call her Bridget even though it is very corny.

I could have sworn I've answered a thread like this. Anyway, my Traveller is known as "Blakes", short for Blaketon and yes, the one who was a Policeman in Heartbeat.....even though mine is the wrong colour.

My mother has an MGB GT called "Bumble" and my father's MG Midget is called "Godfrey". My father has nicknamed my MG Midget the "Hooligan".

Traveller's 'Maude' (as the first few letters of the Vin are: MAW3D) Convertible is 'Matilda' (as the first letters are: MAT)
LCV is 'Moglet' as we got that first and hadn't exercised any imagination at all..... :oops:
