prefectopop Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 You all know the film - if you don't go buy it or rent it tonight. So come on - what is or was your "Christine" and lets see it. How many people have you pissed of with it, and how many times have you tried saying "show me" to it? This is mine - I've had it a week and have asked it to show me every day so far to no avail And its been a bone of contention ever since it arrived!
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 My van is nicknamed Christine after it started doing things on its own soon after I got it. I say 'Show me' everytime I plant the throttle....
FredTransit Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 We name all our vans and cars, and use the year letter as the initial. As yet we have avoided calling any C reg Christine because of this very film!!
Tracey Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 Hubby calls the RS Christine Thing is she will drive a treat for him, I get in and she splutters all over the place (he reckons it's my driving )
Copey Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 my car plays up when certain people are sat in the passenger seat, no idea why though she seems to behave now...
Dr Feelgood Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 carla will never behave!!!! shes a wild beast who doesnt do behaving silly man
Copey Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 We've got a transit called Carla. cool, its the name of my Capper
bortaf Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 Had a Mk3 cortina i called Christine cos every time she was on me recovery truck it broke down in spectacular style and cost me an arm and a leg whe was in a film as well and was red
evil knievel Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 my cappa is my first and only car so it's hard to say... i've not even driven her yet. but every day when i take parts off her, when i go back the next morning they are back on.... strange.
stevepeanut Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 the day I went to look at my mk2, I was poking around it and the boot shut itself on my arm, and left a huge bruise. So maybe this is my christine. I taped and watched that movie a couple of months ago, it rocks
evil knievel Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 the book is much better mate, trust me!! i've got several battered copies (MAJOR stephen king fan) if any one wants one... i'm sure i can let one go
razersedge Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 i've had 2 cars that i would call christine, costing me a fortune, braking in spectacular style, having to do jobs 2 and 3 times and showing me serious problems just as i'm about to go out and acting strange when they want to, now this is the funny thing both are red mk2 escort 2 doors both are t reg one i owned in 1994 one i own now i just pray the didn't hear me it might make me put in and take the gearbox out for a 4th time this month sssssshhhhh!!!!!!
NginEEr Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 an old mk1 escort we called christine was 1 huge disaster after another in the end i managed to convince my dad to sell it over scrap it
caprinerd Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 the book is much better mate, trust me!! agree with you there and im another king fan my capper is called noo noo and she is great with me on my own but if a female gets in she plays up miss fire, runs on 3, lacks power, battery goes dead, but only with females in her
