How good does this look?

Okay the white interior will have people approaching while you're stopped at the lights, trying to score coke off you. But still worth it.

Do you give your car(s) a nickname? I would call yours "The Plum". ;)Quote:

It's what they call a "restomod" (the Mustang, not you, Roy!) where they are restored, but mildly modified too - I can see the suspension is lower, the wheels (classic American Racing alloys - they do suit a muscle car) and tyres are bigger/lower profile, and of course, the "Pimp My Ride" interior. (I used to love that show, 20 odd years ago, on MTV, must see if there are any re-runs. I remember they put a fish tank in a car, once!) It's also had some of it's chrome trim removed to smooth out the lines. They've done a great job.
My Land Rover is called "Maggie" - I bought her when Sue was pregnant with Tamzin (17 years ago in April) and as all Land Rovers have to have a name (my Series 1 was called "Lucy") we wanted to do the same, but struggled to find one that fitted. Sue had become a bit obsessed about magpies when she was pregnant, the whole superstitious thing, (Morning Mr, Magpie, and all that, if you only see one) and when we were going to collect it we saw some magpies on the A14/A12 Copdock roundabout - we both looked at each other and said "Maggie!" and that was that, especially as she is white and black, and I added the small bit of blue in the shape of the Land Rover decals.Quote:

I've had a lot of other cars over the years, but don't think I have given them all names.
My car is also white with a black roof. I have yet to giver her a name, but it would definitely not be "Maggie" - my political leaning would not allow that.
So until such time as we can come up with a name, my car will remain anonymous. :doh:
After much procrastination you settled on that name, and your missus said "Finally!" :) I know, that's terrible, but what do you expect at 6.30am?Quote:

Haha, at least someone knows who CeCe Peniston is!
What was your mate’s bike? My ZX6-R I called Cerys after Cerys Matthews (then known for being the lead singer of Welsh band Catalonia) because it looked attractive from some angles and had a throaty roar…
One of these, Suzuki GSX1100 EX. Even the same colour and graphics.Quote:

I never gave my Honda FireBlade a name, even though I've owned it 19 years now. I could never decide if it's a bloke or a bird. On these pages I refer to it as the Pony Express, though that would mean nothing outside of this forum.
This is the model and colour (one on the left):

Maybe I could call it Beryl (the yellow peril) :)
The Kawasaki Ninjas were proper. I don't think there's been a motorbike with a better sound...Quote:

So I p/ex'd what was left against my first 'Blade.
