russianfrog Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 While waiting for my new '07 Def 110 to arrive, I've alread launch a competition at home to name the Landy. After all, a Landy is a new member in the family; isn't it? The plebicited name is "Antelope-Gnu". Out of curiosity, what's the name of yours?

FridgeFreezer Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 The 109 is Edward Elizabeth Hitler, AKA Eddie, and the Range Rover is Richard Richard - named after these two because it seems to fit fairly well: Dad's RR is called Reg, not sure why but it's what the previous owners called it.

Orgasmic Farmer Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Mine is known as Lucy. So called as my partner said she was a Landrover Under Construction, though what the Y meant escapes me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glue Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Mine's known as Boris Carlot. Like most Landies it's a bit of a Frankenstein's monster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeastie Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 My one goes under the proud name of The Beastie It was originally The Beast based upon the difference between driving it and our other Pugeot 206. I think its reduction to the diminutive is a sign of ever growing affection for it! Malcy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSi110 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I asked my 3 year-old son (when we bought the 110) what to call her. He said Bluey, 'cos she's blue. How imaginative, but not a name I'd choose. Then a mate of mine kept (and still does) referring to the 110 as The Beast. Not a name that sits too easily with me, but I can see the attraction and use it whenever we're talking about her. Then my wife thinks the 110 MUST be male as she / it doesn't look female?!! Sorry, but I just cannot have a male car. She's a she. Imperfect and highly desirable. Irritating and beautiful. Absolutely DEFINITELY a female. I just call her The 110. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSG Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The kids were calling the 110 'Bling' as it was so shiny but they have started calling it Ray-oh as the number plate starts RA 0. I call it 'the 110' but it has been called 'the Transit' as well The Hybrid is still called ALF because it always has been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
