Your van, Male/Female and it's name and why?

Ours is a girl..LOLA ....it's scrambled into the number plate.

Should be OUCH !...which I believe, is gender free, or I should take more care when dropping big spanners or axle assemblies on my head ? :-

 

Our is male and called José. This is what the last owners called him as he came from Mexico - and it seems to suit him

 

Ours is blue, so had to be a boy. After a fraught night trying to agree a name between the 3 of us, Arthur was the only name we all agreed on. I'd hate to have to name a baby, too stressful.

Arthur Palethorpe suits him - good solid Yorkshire sounding name!

 

mine doesnt have a name as it is a bus and is a tool used for camping!! I havent named my tent!! LOl bah Humbug

 

sorry, its still a secret.

 

Buckminster, being magnolia magnolia (I am typing B-E-I-G-E but it comes out magnolia! wtf?) with olive/tan plaid interior, looked like the sort of vehicle a cool college professor would have driven in the 70's, according to my friend. I immediately thought of Buckminster Fuller. Inventor, professor, beloved by hippies. Hippies used to say, "Never trust anybody over 30, unless he's Buckminster Fuller.".
Inventor of the geodesic dome, he started working on environmentally "green" designs back in the 1930's.
And when I pop the clutch and launch from a red light, the front end "bucks" up. So sometimes he is Bucky.
