Title: car add ons
Post by: pauls on 21 November 2012, 21:40:48

I was just sitting here reading  some of the post and that made me think of all the changes I have made to my car this year. New bits to me ;D ;D

light grey leather interior and door cards.
B4 shocks and steinmetz springs.
elite 17" wheels.
prodrive rear spoiler.
mv6 front bumper.
3ltr cams.
cat back 3ltr exhaust.

Cant call it a cdx any more. Any ideas on what to call it now ;D

To anyone else, "my car"

I generally refer to my car as "my car". The other halfs' car tends to be "your car". Unless she is talking - then it's the other way around

When I had more than one car, I generally used the name it was christened with. In the case of the Omega, it was called "The Omega".

I do understand that people name their cars. Why not "Dog fart". Or "Muff"
At the weekend you could clean and polish Muff. Or Dog fart.

I normally call it the "Green money pit" or "now what the fxxx is wrong with it". I surpose I could call it "The Elite wanna be"  ;D ;D

Miss Vamps asks why I call my car the 'Jeep' and not 'My Car' I have no answer   'Jeep' just sounds so right..... :D :D

When spending money on them,buying fuel etc. they're "my" cars.However when the dragonlady wants taking somewhere or similar they suddenly become "our" cars!!
