I call my TBA "The Bonnie"
My Honda is called "The Honda"
My car is called "The Jag"
I call my wives SUV, that big fat truck.
The only car that i have had an affectionate name form was my Triumph TR7 convertable. I had two names for her. Kermit, and The Green Goddess.
My friends also had two names form my TR7. Either the Tea Bag (the roof leaked...A LOT) or "the pile of shite". Dont quite know why. Averaging one break down a month isnt that bad....is it?
