What's your MINI's name?

[bradman]

I lifted "Little " to name my new '04 MC BRG/WT.

(Trivia Quiz: Anybody know the famous person who named his car "Little "? Who was that person and what was the car?)

[bradman]

You've got to be kidding me.....

OK, lets try again.

I lifted "Little B*****D" to name my new '04 MC BRG/WT.

(Trivia Quiz: Anybody know the famopus person who named his car "Little B*****D"? Name that person and the car.)

[littlemoon]

Basil Fawlty - "Fawlty Towers"
Austin something?
The scene where he hits his car with the branch!

[BENJ]

Mine is called Benjy (Not a very original reason for this name but his number plate is BNJ!!)

[bradman]

Hmmm, I'll have to dig up that episode of "Fawlty Towers", Littlemoon. But, actually, I was thinking of someone else. (Hint: He had "Little B*****D painted on the back of his car.)

[littlemoon]

Sorry Bradman, even after living in Colorado for the last 2 years, I still don't know who it is! I take it, it's an America??? Very impressed you know who Basil is mind!

[puck]

My car will be puck of course... the wee little imp.

I have NO idea...that's just what the guy at "Ask MINI" told me. I suppose they don't want to be too specific, otherwise we might bribe spy satellite operators to take a few shots for us! I wouldn't put anything past this crowd!
But please do give me a local weather report!
Thanks!

[bradman]

OK, littlemoon, another hint for you and all the others.

Yes, he was an American.

(Actually, that was two hints.)

C'mon, I know that some fan of both movies and auto racing will know this!

[gracielou]

Gracielou Freebush after the movie Miss Congeniality. She is a girl and she always makes people smile and is well congenial.

[1notenough]

Our 04' MCS, DSW, CWP,SP, HK, LBL, Her name is "NOEL" due to that wonderful sound she makes when she starts to "sing" from the supercharger.

VYVYAN off of the young ones?

[bradman]

Geez, Mighty Imp, give a Yank a break, would ya? I had to google "VYVYAN" to find out what in the world you were talking about...!

Nope, not Vyvyan!

(Another hint: Think 1950s Hollywood...)

[tavis1]

You have to be a part of the MTv crowd of the 80's to know Vyvyan. The show was called the Young Ones. Other charectors was Rick (also was in drop dead fred), Neil and Mike. I didn't like the fat guy they brought on latter. He wasn't funny and was hard to understand. Truley one of the best things to come out of England since the Cooper
Tavis1 .
