Mines Milly, due to the Irish plate MIL****.
Wish someone would buy the plate though, so I can put it back to its normal number, and give it a better name!

"My car" or "BMW" or sometimes "Blingmobile".
Don't do naming cars here, I leave that to Wor Lass and her shopping trolly.
Mind, when I am having trouble with it it's usually "Pile Of Shit"!

I use to use the ending of my reg which is BOK and called my car "The BOK" until some turkish or greek person told me BOK means shit in there language, so "the Shit" was not appropiate, suppose it would be if i was in america
you never know i might change my mind from "the beast" to "the shit"
