Our 59 has always been known as Aggie, my brother in law always called his vehicles Aggie.  Our 58 is just known as YOD from it's registration plate.  My wife called our Romahome Rosie and our first Berlingo was known to the whole family as Bertie

My wife named ours Lambert, normally go by that name, unless it's misbehaving!

Mine is simply, "The Landie"

The VRM is VGX so not easy to figure out a name from that, however you could extrapolate "Voyager 10" - one for the Trekkies 🖖

We had a substantial thread on this subject, not so long ago.

Could they be merged, to avoid repetition?

The 88" when I bought it was christened by me 'Butler' after the surname of the seller, who I knew.
I got a rear plate made for it with the words 'I hate you Butler' at the foot, (oldies will relate.)
When I changed to black & silver plates, the name fell into disuse, and now it is either called 'the 88' or simply 'PWP' after the reg.

The 109", a crop sprayer, is called 'Leo Sprayer' or simply 'Leo'.

Mine's letters are WFK. I daren't print what that could stand for.
 FK were the only registration letters originally issued to the borough of Worcester. I reckon nowadays they'd be on the banned list.

My brother named mine.  He liked the way it rhymed and rolled off the tongue.

Mpudi: So how did the land rover get up the tree?
Steyn: Do you know she has flowers on her panties?
Mpudi: So that's how it got up the tree.
