Ali and Gail Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Having been with the club for a couple of years now we now know nearly as many Westfields names as we do members, but what are the stories behind the names? Ours, as some of you know is Mrs P. We were asked why Mrs P very early on by @Julie Hall - AO Representative, Peak District AO and to us it's simple. Mrs as it's Gail's car and the P is for pipe dream, one we are now actually living. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Captain Colonial Posted June 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 13, 2018 Many people know mine is called The Wench, but fewer know why. It’s because she’s colourful, flashy, noisy, demanding, hates being ignored, likes it rough, smokes a bit, drinks like a fish, strictly for amusement, prefers to have her top off, and if you’re inside her for more than an hour your bum goes numb. 1 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I had better go next then. Mine is called RITA after the ride at Alton Towers - RITA The Queen of Speed.

Andy_R Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 My first was named Roary by my son ... as it's red and looks like Roary the Racing Car (starring Peter Kay). The second is Maverick and was named by a previous owner in the mid naughties. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maurici Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Mines is called Frankie... but I never refer to her like this. Why? well... Back in Spain, owning an MK and being part of a club called Lighweight maniacs... we was following UK forums and sharing amusing or interesting content between us for a laught. When @AdamR started all the technical treads developing the car, we used to follow them and call her Frankie... because it looked chunky, fast and aggressive. (like Dr Frankenstein monster) I never thought I would end buying the car several years later. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
