My first e30, a silver/grey 325i touring, was called Lassie. Bit of an old dog but di some good tricks.

My Current one is called angel, cos its gonna have the engine out of my first one in it soon.

My mates is called nancy... cos it isn't one!

And i'm afraid to say me and my mate are both male!?! Sorry! :o:

I cant ever think of a good name to name any of my e30s..................The only time I would name a car would be if I owned an E Type jag and I would name it Scarlet :)

i haven't named my car, though my ex wife had a few names for it, none of which are suitable for family viewing :D

we had as sterling silver E34 525i sport that my daughter (about 4 or 5 at the time) named silvia (evolved from silver-car)

on occasion i have called my car names, in a screaming/shouting john cleese fashion, while hitting it with tree branches etc :D
