I love my relationship with my 2005 4.2SC RRS, it's special so I thought I'd ask if anyone else feels the same and gives their RRS a name?
Mine is called Rupert...... Rupert Rimmington-Smythe to be precise!
The reason is I travelled 300 miles to see it with a "trader" friend. He told me that as we would be buying it from another trader there was little chance of a discount from the advertised price.
So we came up with a story that we were buying it for a wealthy landowner's (Rupert) grand-daughter so she could tow her horses and if we got that right he had £3m to spend on other cars for the estate so it was a really important deal for us.
The trader got hooked on our story and we did indeed get a discount from the advertised price.
I then bought a non age related plate that ended "RRS" so the name became Rupert Rimmington-Smythe! R-R-S
Would love to hear other people's names for their RRS and the reasons why.
Please note this was s serious question but I know what you lot are like!!!!! 2016 RRS SVR Estoril Blue
2005 4.2L Supercharged Java Black - gone but was my first love.

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

"The car", "my car", "it" or "that".

I have never named my cars. The RRSs have been called "truck" mostly, with the occasional "Sport", "Landy" or "Rangie" throw in (although I hate "Rangie", to be honest").

The current one is often referred to as "you useless piece of " when it does the infamous "suicide pause". As it does this with remarkable frequency, the name is starting to stick.  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Current RRS is called Elsie (wife's choice).

Her previous car was an '05 Fiesta called Gertrude. My last one was a Pug 607 called Eponine.

I am saddened to learn that some people do not name their cars.
