Weird

These are some of the worst cars names ever

It's 'Name Your Car' day. Here are five of the worst...

  • Datsun Cedric

    Named after the very pensioners that drove them, the Cedric sat alongside cars baring equally elderly monikers (Violet, Gloria and Sylvia) in Nissan's sixties lineup.

  • Toyota MR2

    Say each letter of the model name in French and it sounds like a very rude word. In French.

  • Mazda LaPuta

    I mean, honestly? Odds are that the person who signed this model name/appalling Spanish swearword is no longer in Mazda's employ.

  • Ford Probe

    Very few people would choose to have a probe. Especially on their driveway. Even more especially if it had 24 valves.

  • Growler E Concept

    What's not already been said about this awful naming oversight (of a rather wonderful car)?
