Redbirds I remember those Fiat Mirofiore's from my life in England. The car was great in Rally racing.

Away up here we have a name
For wind and rain and fire
The rain is Joe
The wind is Bess
And we call the fire ... the fire.
Apologies to Alan and Frederick.

Thanks to a comment make by Popgun after seeing my daughter with the bike, it is named BRAD. She loves Brad.

People always look at me funny for naming my stuff
Lucy is my 14 standard
Rhonda was an '81 Cb650 custom (red honda)
I wasn't so clever with my first bike, a '74. Cb550four. I just refured to it as purple bike so it wouldn't get confused with my brother's '75. Cb400f
I even named my snap on tool box Alvin!

Never really bothered. Our Lexus LX 570 is affectionalety known as "Lex Luthor," but that's more of an inside joke off an old school hip-hop album more than anything.

Some, but not all, got names:
2014 CB1100 - Black Beauty
2013 Toyota Prius Model C - Toy Car
2006 Honda Element - Cubie
1994 Suzuki Sidekick - Cutie
200? Honda Accord - Tic Tic

CB1100 - Last Blast. 'Cause at 70 it is likely to be.
T120 - The Blue *******. This name came naturally, and readily, after 10 minutes of kick starting in 40degC heat, followed by 30mins of waiting for my mate and a bike trailer to arrive. (Coil breakdown in the desert).
Cheers

Isn't it "The Blue ****"?
