After trying several out, mine's become "the big one", since the A2 is now "the little one".
All the family now say "the big one?" first 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've got a 1986 90 project waiting to be started. .......hopefully if I can remain injury and sickness free.
Last three letters are SHG. ...so it's called Shaggy. But I want to paint the 90 sandglow yellow and try and recreate a 90 camel trophy. So in time it may require a name change to camel sh*gger. |

For now, it's changed to "The Car" because the other one is buried in snow. Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

My last one, as previously mentioned, was called Michael, after Michael Palin, because both are fun and go everywhere.
Still connected to the above, my latest toy is called Fogg, after Jules Vernes' character, Phileas Fogg from Around The World In Eighty Days, which of course Michael Palin did as well.

I call it the Defender, got to keep things simple around these parts Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades. Current Defender: A non tarts hand-bagged Puma 110 XS USW. [Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc] http://forums.lr4x4.com I used to be Miserable ...but now I'm ecstatic. |

According to my 2 year old daughter the defender is "big car" and the wife's polo is "baby car" so now we all call them the same

Mine is called "Machito"
Literaly little "macho" (is there any translation needed anyways ?), it's a common name in Latin America for... oh, well, for old school FJ40s. But believe me when they deal with modifying them they know their business... Here's one example : So I found fair to name mine in respect to those nicely crafted machines. Oh and obviously, she named it... guess where she's from ? Chris |
