Remember Open Motoring Rule #1:
When motoring in rain under 25 miles per hour.

So, as long as your not stuck in wonderful LA traffic, you won't get wet. :smile:

You're all nuts. Naming a car....? I prefer thinking of my car as just a very hip machine.
But I think I sort of understand.

At the behest of my kids, my cars name is going back to Paddy. All of my kids liked that better than what I came up with. So Paddy it is!

My MINI's name is "Enery" as in Enery the eigth. I always have had an affinity for small cars, my 1st new car was a 1966 VW bug. I followed that one with 4 more. I had a Renault LeCar and a MGTD. So that makes Enery the 8th.:smile:

If I was to go back again I might name her "Josephine" after La Femme Nikita. Lightweight, sleek, sexy, and deadly
