Previous was "Darth Florence." Darth because all black, and Florence because the first time I ever saw an R8 I thought Florence was a good name for it.
Previous was "Rosie the RS4."
Previous was a more generic "Herman the German" (another Audi).

Other random named cars I've had:

"Efalump" - Chevy Traverse LT.
"Gerbil" - a curtesy Audi A4
"Uber Gerbil" - a curtesy Audi A6
"Mini Efalump" - Kia Rio
"Louie" - Bimmer 118d rental

Basically, I name all my cars. Even ones I have very briefly.

Sound like characters for a promising children’s book! :)

The SD that we had was given a bit of an embarrasing name by my Wife.

After you pick yourselves up from laughing so much, look at the first three letters of the registration number.

Its the only reason I traded it in for the Turbo.

My past BMW 135i coupe was called Red Devil, a tad slower than your devil though, only 300 odd horses. :lol:
