Have you named your Defender?
After 'The Shed' (the dearly departed D3), we refer to the Defender as 'The Ol' Dragon', cos she's large, green and prehistoric.

My last 90 was called (by all my mates) " poppins"
Because it was practically perfect in every way Mr. Green

My current 90 is called Bellatrix, after the sexy witch off Harry Potter Shocked
These are the only cars I've ever named..

Often call ours "The Child Catcher" because of all the grills Laughing Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

Well, I have named mine, and so have some of the people in work.

I called her Ute...... because it is a girls name, and she is a Ute.

Names from work include: The Beast, tonka toy and the 'Rape Wagon'........ mainly because it has a lockable compartment at the back and I always have a shovel in it (for recovery). lol.

The girlfriends Feroza is called Flossy.... Was nearly called fluzey, as she takes her top off when the sun comes out.

Mine is called "Zee-Rover"



Translated from dutch this means "pirate". we named here so because after I owned a sailing boat and travelled in it for 20 years I sold the boat and bought the Land Rover for our travels...
