It's perfectly normal to name your car!

Just ask Bo, she'll tell you :wink:

Most of our cars have had names. Mind you, some of the names were temporarily changed to something unprintable when the car played up!

Best wishes all,
Dave.

I remember when learning to drive in an old fiesta I could only wear slip on shoes as my feet would catch the pedals and linkage gear on the dual controls. One day I decided to wear my boots for a change and found I couldn't drive properly (big feet) so I took my boots off and drove in my socks. Found it more comfortable and for the first time I had to move the seat forward slighly. The isntructor found nothing wrong with this, but for years aftewards could only drive wearing these old slip ons as they were narrow. One reason I changed to an auto.
This thread brought back these memories.
Funny thing is my sister bought an old fiesta - same model I learnt in - still pretty cramped, did bring back memoeries as well :lol:
