Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Mine is called RITA because she is the Queen of Speed. Before I bought her I had to go to Alton Towers and go on the ride of the same name to have the same kind of fun. It worked out a lot cheaper just to buy a Westfield you see.

Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 My first car,mk1 Ford Escort, was called Troffimov taken from a Monty Python sketch. Never given a name to another. A friend's wife called the Westfield Tango, because its orange, then asked me if it's safe, and legal.

Welly Jen Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Mr Toad. Several years back, when planning a visit, my Mum asked me if I would be coming in the Mr Toad car. The name stuck. Also 'cause he is green and has big 7" chrome bug eye headlights. Nothing to do with my Toad of Toad Hall driving style. Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemesis Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 My SEiGHT got tagged as the ASBO.......I just didn't expect it to be my son that would come up with it..... We had a great little blat about on a Saturday, all polite and well mannered..... until I got a little frustrated with a young lad in a Focus ST that was trying to 'mate' his car with mine..... So I gave it the obligatory right foot full and got a little caught out with the slide...... so me being on the daft side of stupid kept the foot modestly buried and drove out of the slide, shuffled up the gears and drove off into the sunset...... I just happened to look left and My son had a mahoosive grin on his chops...... he looked over to me and said 'this thing is the original ASBO'...

Onliest Smeg David Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Most often just the Westie. But also Onliest and the Yellow Peril. Occasionally Stinky. Also referred to as the 'lardy car' due to it being one of the heavier Westies in the Speed Series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John K Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Also referred to as the 'lardy car' due to it being one of the heavier Westies in the Speed Series. One of my American friends was really interested in the Westie as he likes old TRs and the like. First thing he asked was "how heavy is it, 1,700 lbs?" My reply was "Only if you were sat in it..."
