The Naming of Cars is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a car must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

Ok blatantly plagiarised form T S Elliot, but I name them, always have so will keep this to my time being the custodian of an MG EV.

First there was to M4 X Power which was OMG, if you've driven one will make perfect sense, in sport mode for the first time thats what you screamed, albright without the shortening.

Then I added the BMW M3 to the stable, the other half was not impressed, particularly as its UK registration ended in MLF. "I'm not going out in that, people will call me a MILF" Without thinking I replied "oh sweetie, no one would ever call you a MILF" the 2 weeks of silence that followed was strange and rather nice so it was.

Given the M3's transformation ability initially he was named Optimus after Optimus Prime, unfortunately the MILF thing was in my mind and he became Oedipus, I really need to adjust my meds.

However I digress, when the new S6 arrived immediately he was Auric after the iconic Auric Goldfinger, yeah I loved the original Bond movies, so has your car got a name, tell all.....

Oh dear Cod no, don’t do it, 3 years have passed and when I was posting it, that one didn’t come up ***.
 
My ZS is called Magic and the S5 is called Ghost. My wife named them. :):):)
