Only 25% of people name their cars? What kind of people are the OTHER 75%?! Not sure they'll ever be friends of mine...

My first car was named 'Posy', and she was an absolutely beautiful 1963 Morris 1000 4-door saloon in dove grey with limited edition duo-tone interior. She was my 21st birthday present in the mid 1990s. I still achingly miss her. She smelt of black oil, horsehair and hot vinyl.

Lovely post - thank you.

Beautifully articulated! As a massive petrol head and owner of a couple of classics, I’m struggling to accept a fully electric automotive future.

It is undeniable that the time will come when the characterful combustion engine is no more. I’m mentally preparing myself for that moment. It is a difficult but necessary change.
