Oddly, I have never named my =E2=80=9959 BT7, no suitable name ever =
appealed to me.
=20
However, my Sequoia =E2=80=9948 M.G. TC immediately was named =
=E2=80=9CLollobrigida=E2=80=9D (Lolo). This nickname was purloined from =
a 1930s-something Talbot, which was the first car any of my =
parent=E2=80=99s friends owned back in England, and which sported the =
first steering wheel I ever held, when at the age of 1 yr, I was hoisted =
onto the front seat, and standing, held the wheel for a photo op. That =
Lollobrigida was named after the actress (whose curves were infinitely =
more appealing than the Talbot=E2=80=99s). Both that car and Gina =
Lollobrigida mean something to me.
=20
My =E2=80=9935 M.G. PA is =E2=80=9CRuby=E2=80=9D, because it is two =
tones of red. It came with the name and while unimaginative, seeing =
Ruby and Lollobrigida beside each other conjures up pleasant thoughts
=20
However, the best-ever named car was the Series 1 Land Rover in the =
movie =E2=80=9CThe God=E2=80=99s Must Be Crazy=E2=80=9D, whose mechanic =
was forever beneath it muttering an unintelligible stream of profanity. =
That Land Rover was known by the mechanic as =E2=80=9C The =
Antichrist=E2=80=9D.
