Crudman, or Millionaire, because it always runs rich..

Moke-o-anguish, because it's a POS and carries much heartache.

850.. Eight-fiddy?

Armageddon - after everything it's been though (same as any other mini, endless engine troubles, the brakes have never been right, accident damage (no-one hurt)) it still gets me about the place and is great fun :mrgreen:

My finished car is Nitro. I think was a short lived joke where the name stuck but not the reason for it. :?
The early working name for the project before I knew where it was going was Chimera (meaning multiple
DNA strands cause the car is aussie, built from jap and uk parts across all production years, and thus
has no resemblance to its original factory build).

The MK.2 is Moneypit. No guesses as to why

The 970 is Claude. Name really suits him and came with the car. Prior owner had no idea of where his name came from either.

My Moke is Mopoke which was a contraction of "Moke with No Poke" when it sat in the shed as a non-runner for so long.

My Traveller is Trixie simply because I liked the sound of "Trixie the Traveller".

Cheers,
