Well Sorry to disapoint you two, But "Cavy", is the name of my of my cavalier. My 2 Toyota avensis's where

1st one called "Avy"

and my newest one "Toya"

So I'll keep calling my cavalier "Cavy" as that is her name. But I never discribe other cavaliers as Cavy's, its either Cav or Cavalier.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Just to let you know my other past cars.

First Cavalier CDX lasted 6weeks before a old man wrote it off. "The Black Beast", (She was black)

Volvo 440, £200 rust heap, with "69" numbers on the doors, NOS sticker on the back and White letters on the tyres "KINGPINS"

He was called "THE DREAM MACHINE"

and my old company car. a crappy under powered peugoet 307.. "LE PEP",, because of His stupid french gay sounding horn.

This isn't a jibe at you HARIBO, but when ever i say cavy in the street, around friends, in the pub or even at work.
Someone always says.... "you mean you have a chavy?"

It's really really annoying, hence why i no longer your the word cavy to describe a cavalier.

The other thing that people seem to think (this applies to Americans) is when you say cavy, they think you mean that god awful Chevrolet Cavalier.

Thats my moan over and done with..... have a nice day.

No its a "Her"

Ask a navyman or airman. they all call there mechanical devices Girls names.

"Good luck to all that sale in Her"


So to you it might just be a car. but some people get very attatched to there Mechaniacal device.

I hardly use my car to get from A to B.

Its just A to A, but with a nice long enjoyable drive along the way.


But as everyone says........................... thank you for your opinion.
