My love/hate relationship with my LC has me calling it Elsie...not original I know.......but it was the most PG Rated name I could think of after always testing my patience. On a bad day/night..........you dont really want to know what I call her really.

I went looking for a name after 15 years, I know the date she came off the assembly line so I googled who was born on that day , I didn't like any of the names, so I tried that day and any year but didn't like any of them either, so it's still the "Monaro ".

Mine is just the Torry or the beast or the GTR.
The missus calls it the green piece of sh1t or that piece of crap in the shed.
She also says it's not one cause it only has 2 doors and Torana's should have 4.
I'm planning on getting plates that say SNOT1 which has multiple meanings.
Short for it's not 1, also says it's not an xu1, and cause it's green like snot.

Potta you need to educate your wife. My wife came home the other day and said she saw a nice Torana, but it was only a "Parts Car".

She is very well educated regarding Toranas but she loves p!ssing me off and she knows that does it.

My hatchback Torana was called the Hatch by me or Gertie by my mother or cruiza and my wife called it my Bloody car, she only did that once though
on our wedding day
When my wife took a Suzuki Swift for a drive she said I think we will call it Polly so when I too got a Swift Sport she asked me what to call it I the best I could come up with was Esther.... Polly - Esther, not a bad name for plastic cars I thought
