[davidmc]

Thought it would be interesting/fun to see what people have called (or will call) there new M3 arrival (Or all ready new/existing S & X). Just an off topic theme to take my (and yours) mind away regards waiting for my text/email/call to pick up!

Name:
Reason:

I'll start it off

Name: Trimaxion (i am almost tempted with "HAL" but that my scare me! especially with my name!!!!)

Reason: One of my favourite films in the 80's when i was younger (Flight of the Navigator - 1986). I would love my (not arrived yet) car to have the voice of Max!

I'm not one for naming cars, but autopilot will be called George (cos autopilots are all called George) or James, as in Home James, and don't spare the horses

 

[RamsfanJim]

Nikola - I know not very original... may refer to it as 'Nik' going forward.

 

[LEE3]

I was looking at naming it Ace after the ship it arrives on but not liking the sound of Conductor now...

 

[TestPilot]

Rocinante, 'cause y'know.... f***ing spaceship.

 

[Christiez]

Name: Ada
Reason: Is my daughters name and she was overdue..

 

[Grymbok]

Currently the plan is for KITT.

But who knows, we're not expecting a car until late September at least so have time to change our minds...

Similarly, I was thinking of Chewie or Checkov.

I have a shortlist but am basically unable to decide . I'd open it up to a vote, but we all know how that sort of things tens to go ...

 

[MrBadger]

How about making the vote interesting. Instead of us voting on your shortlist, we get to choose a name and you have to call your car our most popular choice in "Name Lees Car"

Name: Tarquin
Reason: Tarquin ‘the Tesla’
Flowchart:
1. Wife will hate the name
2. I will propose ‘Carry Mc Battery Face’
3. We will settle on ‘The Tesla’
