car add ons
« 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.

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!!
