Amusing Car Names
Hi All.
Stevec's post on his Fiat Clankyclunko got me thinking about this.
I find the slang names for cars quite funny, Ford Crappy, Vauxhall Shov'it, etc. I bet there's hundreds.
I suppose my Type 907 engine came from a Lotus E'clatter. 
I'd particularly like to know the one for the Corsa,
as "Roger the store man" (if you'll pardon the expression) at work, is thinking of getting one.
So, any more?.... How about a list?

Not sure you'd need a funny name considering the adverts
 
vauxhall puppets
If he gets a chav'ed up one you could always try 'does your mum know what you've done to her car?'

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Vauxhall Corset?
It's a tight fit on some people.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Thanks for the pic.
Added to it a bit. I'll pin it up in the stores. (ducks for cover)
He's getting a new one, so it's no chavmobile.
The ol' boy's getting on a bit, so maybe it's the new Wrinklymobile.
Also test drove the new Civic, say's the Corsa's better. 
Cheers

Carry on with the names. It's a giggle.
