Worst car names?
 
Driving to work this morning and got stuck behind a car i have never heard of before, a skoda Roomster, got me thinking what other crap names are out there. Discount the number's like C2 etc, what has the worst name.

NOVA - Not a great idea in Spanish (no go !)

Longjing 04 October 2006 10:22 AM

Interceptor is just one one from the more old school macho days of English cars. Like the Gilbern Invader or summat.

Not to be compared to the Mazda Bongo Friendee, for example.

I thought it was Italy for that name, hence they changed it to shogun :confused:
Saying that, it probably sums up most 4x4 drivers anyway ;):D

Andy

verb to go = Ir
3rd person present tense = Va


Big fuss when car came out in Spain.

NotoriousREV 04 October 2006 12:51 PM

Nova = Not goes but the sentiment is correct ;)

VXRBOY 04 October 2006 12:57 PM

What about the best names, like mitsi Warrior and animal? Anybody got ideas on the best names?

andythejock01wrx 04 October 2006 12:59 PM

Errr Impreza = impressive ?! And yes, I've got one too !

Sbradley 04 October 2006 01:00 PM

Renault Velsatis. WTF?
Another vote for the Mitsubishi Carisma. Not because it's a bad name per se, but because it's so inappropriate.
Land Rover Defender. Great car, stupid name.
Funnily enough I saw a Friendee Bongo last night and it makes the list too.
Hyundai Atoz.
