My one and only car was a 1997 Clio called Regy cos the number plate was "R### EGY".

Was faithful to me for 9 years before we moved out here. I still haven't forgiven my dad for giving him away for 200 quid.

We used to have an Izuzu Trooper we called 'The Beast', because it was.

My first car was a little Peugeot 106, whose number plate ended in "NKO" and it was christened "No Knickers On".

My next car was a Toyota Corolla in moonlight silver, hence the name Moomin.

I then had a 1991 white Toyota Camry Estate which we called Vulcan (VKN on number plate) and it was quite pokey.

Our first Canada car is called Scooby as its a Subaru.

One of my mates trumps all the above with her Renault Clio that she calls Clitty.

Not a big fan of Pontiacs myself even though my BIL is a GM salesman....very poor resale value. They are cheap(ish) to buy but lots of repairs needed and they don't tend to last very long.

We have a Chevrolet Venture called 'the barn' on account of the bales of hay and horse feed it carries.

Yes I know a truck would be better but I have a husband who is in denial
