BMW Z4 Name Survey

[ronk]

No name for my car nor do I give it gender!

It, is just the zed!

 

[MrPT]

Silver cock chariot.

 

[BMWZ4MC]

The Zed, The Westfield, The 320 (or occasionally The Tractor as it's diesel). Two of these have personality, but none have gender or need to be anthropomorphised.

Naming cars is weird and pointless imho

Thought it was just a thing people did in college for some reason or another.

 

[PerryGunn]

Mine doesn't need a name, it's got a number...

If you buy the Alpina from Birds you'll soon start referring to it, at least on here, as #255 rather than 'my car', 'my zed' or 'my Alpina' - that's very close to giving it a name

 

[Disca]

Yes, but its not a human name! It's still referring to part of the car itself.

Calling it Steve (or beast as this thread says I should xD) I meant is pointless and weird

 

[original guvnor]

I can think of a lot weirder things to do than naming a car. For example spending £'000's on a number plate

 

[Disca]

I'd rather have the number plate

I'd rather have the number plate

I'd rather have the £'000's thanks.

 

[Disca]

This is true. Have been contemplating a plate anyway though, luckily only the ones for like £250

 

[ab7]

Previous car referred to as 'the focus'

Current car referred to as 'the zed'

Look forward to the day my car is referred to as 'the Aston'

I don't get the name thing but in regards to that list... I have a friend who calls my zed the batmobile, and another who refers to it as the beast...

 

[markeg]

Friend calls mine "the compensator", wife calls it "the midlife crisis", "money pit" and "your car" .... for me it's #108

 

[Stuart Truman]

A German friend (female) calls mine "the extension" which I suspect is similar to "the compensator" Mark

 

[MrPT]

That will be 10x more awesome if it's not actually an Aston.

 

[stephendutton]

I met someone ( a lady ) who called it a p***y magnet. I can confirm it isn't.

Perhaps she was hinting at something :bonk:
