Bertie Rumble
I was just sitting and thinking about the cars I have had over the years. Every one of them has had a name. The most unusual was Bertie Rumble who was an MG Metro. He was a bit of a wreck but carted on for ever.

Our present one is called Vera........we haven't bonded!!

Is it just me that is mad or do other people name their cars?

Re: Bertie Rumble
First car i had vw polo was my nieces, my mum bought it off her for me and she had called it tiffer after the registration - TFR, so it was called tiffer off me as well with a promise id take great care of it. Second one was my micra - that one didnt get a name mainly because we couldnt come up with a name using the registration KRN that i liked.
