My matic is Lil egg (thats what the original owners called it because its all white, and after my awesome painting skills that resulted in lots of orange peel, it now has the texture of an egg) and my rover is Reggie Rover because I had a lil crush on Reggie from big brother back in the day.

Mine does not deserve a name. It keeps wanting me to feed it money.

I chose Moira Moke because I always had this thing for Moira off the morning day time shows when I was young.... That and Moira Moke sounds good because of the aliteration.

The other car is Maysie... thats what the previous owner to the previous owner called her, and if there is one thing I have learned its NOT change the name of a car if it already has one.... bad things always happen.... So Maysie Mini it is. :lol:

The only car I have ever owned that had a name was the green XB Falcon wagon that was called the Fordasaurus.

Mokesta because is is a shorter version of mokester, like roadster or trickster. short enough to fit on a numberplate. It IS NOT Mo-Kesta :)

It is more of a descriptor than a name. "I'm off to take the Mokesta for a burn... if it wasn't broken."

Darby. Named after my Grandfather who was the first person I took for a ride in my first Cooper 'S' in June 1968. We drove from Sydney to Wagga via Bathurst. You could really give it the stick in those days.
Ah memories

The van is Marcia. The Previous Owner said its name was Marcia and its bad luck to change it. I was okay with that as I watched Brady Bunch when I was Young.

Wifes (Us to be daily Drive had no name but when we picked him up she wanted to call him Morris. I have always said its like calling a Cat Cat""
