Title: She needs a name
Post by: jnoshea on September 02, 2005, 10:29:00

I'm fed up of calling her the car, or the disco or the land rover, she needs a name. Any ideas?

BTW, just fitted the steering guard I got from Malvern and trimmed the bumper.  Much safer, and looks good too.  Had to remove my Jackmate though to get the guard in, so it's jate rings next time I'm up at Paddocks.

The oil in the picture is not a leak but the mess I made last night changing the oil in the axles :oops:

Looking at that picture, I'd say "Misty"  :-)

I would elaborate on that and say "Foggie"  :D

Depends on what gender James considers his Landie to be.

Foggie could be fast (as in Carl Fogarty, 4 times World
Superbike Champion), or as in 'Last Of The Summer Wine'

Misty is obviously feminine

You said in another post about the wings that it is "Montpellier Red"....

How about 'Monty' :?:

 :wink:

Monty is the old guy that lives opposite so that could get confusing.
Misty I like, but it sounds like a cat.

OK, sticking with the colour theme as I don't yet know it's personality (see you on the 17th  :wink: ), what about:

Ross - from the Italian for red (ROSSO)

Mist? like the Clint Eastwood film "Play Misty for me", sounds a bit psycho.

Can't use that then  :lol:
Rosey is nice, but kind of cute. Ross reminds me of him from friends.
I'm being awkward I know, this is no easy task.
I thought Lara was quite good (Lara the Land Rover and with an obvious adventure connection, but not sure if Vicky will think it has more to do with the latter than anything else  :? ) Is Lara already taken by anyone here?

Hi James,

I'm new to all this posting so I may have missed it but did you agree on a name in the end... :?:

Title: She needs a name
Post by: jnoshea on September 11, 2005, 20:28:57

Nope.  Still thinking about it. She's still called 'The Land Rover' at the moment.  :D

Not that I know of, but there's a Defender 50th called Lara (http://community.webshots.com/photo/198421278/346550960iWUlfb) up here in Wakefield (it even has a pressed B&W number plate on the roof-rack)

Doug doesn't come on here, as far as I know, but posts on the  Defender 50th (http://www.defender50th.co.uk) web-site.

Been thinking about this again, as the colour is red and we have skimmed on cartoons - how about Rooster :?:

Nice one Wendy, I like Rooster.  I'll run it by Vicky and see what she thinks.  :D

Thanks to everyone who came up with suggestions.
