I own the series "Keeping Up Appearances" in DVD. My favorite British comedy. Remember the episode when Hyacinth and Richard went 'yachting'?

Yes, I do! Loved the series. My second choice for a name was Onslow. Loved that character, and always admired Richard.

Kado

My 2012 BRG/black top Clubman was the "Green Hornet", so it only followed that my 2013 JCW hardtop BRG/black top would be "Kado". I'm sure the older members here know who I'm talking about!

I named her Roxi. She's the most showy car I've ever owned so she seemed like a high-class gal

Wiley, because there's no way an MCS is a girl, and Wiley sounds like a name for someone (or something) that likes to party.

My 2010 MCS has been dubbed GoDammit by my fiance, because it seems to be what I am forever shouting at idiot drivers in Houston traffic.
