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.

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.

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
