Pet names for cars

Pet names purportedly increase the bonding between friends, and give a sense of intimacy to relationships, but did you know that the same applied to you and your car? According to a survey by internet insurer esure.com, more than one out of every five people, have pet names for their cars.

However, women outstrip men in this department, with 26 per cent doing so, as compared to 16 per cent of the men.

While popular cars are more likely to be nicknamed Poppy and Rosey, negative ones are more likely to be called Slug and Bad Car. The survey also revealed some other strange choices of names, with one Toyota owner calling his car Audi, and a Rover owner naming his Grunge Buggy. — ANI
