And does it have a name?

Steve

i am not sure yet i havent had it long enough yet to discover its gender

How long do you have to be around another human to discover its gender, Alex? :p

Edit: me - normally around 100 milliseconds ...

People have ripped serious pi55 out of me for this, but I consider my car to be a "he"

Don't ask me why - maybe a woman wouldn't smoke so much? Perhaps only a bloke would be so reliable? [miaaoooow] Perhaps a woman wouldn't rattle so much? I dunno.

I just can't see my car as a "she" TBH...

[cue pi55 taking]

My car is definitely female.

In fact all my cars have been, as like most females they have a habbit of making you spend money on them!

Oh well we love them really!

nick i wish to point out my car is not human and that the ability to form an opinion about gender for me takes a little longer but i belive it may be male not sure yet though? :confused:

I was going to go off on a rant about cars, and planes, and ships being things - none of this "he/she" nonsense. Then I thought about the way I talk about computers:-

"It dosn't like this/that"

"Stupid machine, it should know what I meant!"

"It couldn't cope with , so it shut down."

"It's just being stubborn. Nothing that a reboot wouldn't cure"

Um...

Yours schizophrenically...

But you still say "it", and apparently you are only talking about them and not to them. So things, I'd say.

my car is definiitely a she as all mechanical things are or at least should be.

Neither. It's an It.

(Sits back and waits for inevitable comments...)

Mine's definitely a she. And the kikds named her 'Good Charlotte'... she even has a bumper sticker showing her name.

Still unsure about the vRS, though I sort of symbolise all cars as she for the reseons Matt pointed out earlier.

Plus the old 16v was very tempremental at getting going after the de-cat!

Mine has been named the Yellow Peril by others and it's kind of stuck. (The name- not the car !).

Mine's definetely a "she", although as yet unnamed - all my cars have been a 'her' as opposed to a 'him.'

True, they take all your money but if you treat them right, they make your life worth living!

27 days and counting till she get's a good jabba'ing

[bit worried about references to the Powerpuff Girls] :shocked:

Even more surprised/embarrassed I remember the program Mojo Jojo came from.

Mine is definitely male.

Takes a little time to warn up, gets a good bolloking every now and again, and never complains.

If it even remotly has the ability to be annoying it has to be a she

Oh and she's gonna be called Elma (plate is nx53 fud)

My MR2 is Pandora, in fact all my cars have been a 'she' except for the Mi16 which was just annoying

Jason,

When your kids watch nothing but Cartoon Network and Boomerang, it just rubs off on you.

My life's one perpetual episode of Scooby-Doo, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Lab, all rolled into one!

Andy

I have a horrible feeling that I watch too much Nickelodeon when I was at uni...

What the hell was a university student supposed to do? work?

Err, this is a 2003 thread but it says on the main page that Jason has added something??

my car is called 'Velma', she is definetely female because she is beautiful.

If i was male i might've said something like she always makes me smile every time I get in her :eek: , well she does and i don't care that i said it

my car is a he 'Callum'. my first skoda (Felicia) was Jamesie, cos dad's was Rab (Rab C Nesbitt link), but shortened it to Jimbo...

Sorry but it has no heart. No pulse.

Made to be spanked, hammered and now and again slapped.

Enough about the wife.

Its a car...................Spank it like you would {if you could get away with it } your misses.

Um-Jason,

Lorna
