Lightbulb Creative thinking caps on please

It looks likely that from the end of next week I shall be teaching driving on a trainee license so I need to do some urgent work acquiring a suitable vehicle, and thinking of a good name. So guys, if it were you what would you call your driving school I like the feel of names like "Breeze" (which is a local school using open-top cars). I also quite like "Yellow", in that I am considering only having yellow cars as they stand out on the road (eh Mick ). I'm considering getting a Suzuki Swift to teach in, kitted out to look like a Super1600 rally car courtesy of our man Sticky, so Swift could be considered but I wouldn't want to feel tied to any specific vehicle.

So, come on and inspire me

I like 'Yellow' too.

'NY' - Based on the New York yellow cabs..
Swift & Sure = Swift cars & Sure to pass.
Yellow Peril
Yello
Buzy Bees - Not Buzzy.. yellow Bee as the emblem..

ZIT - Easily remembered (if you know Jasper carrot that is )


Need more beer..

Are you after a new car or few years old?

You could do a Ford Ka in rally style or fiesta
Another Choice is a Citreon C2 rally style again

Agree with the colour Yellow should be easy to spot when one of your learners has just pulled out on someone!!!

You can do better than that Andy

Helen's sister tried "Vava-voom!" and "Zoom, zoom, zoom" Both of which I'm sure are copyrighted.

On the other hand she did come up with "Zest", which tied in with the yellow thing could prove interesting. You'd certainly remember a car with a 3 foot lemon on the bonnet

Al, the bee's are interesting

Nice, though there's a little too much roll on the Scoob. What settings were the AST's on?

Spelling on 'preferred'

Thinking along the zesty lines, and looking for more ideas, I just Googled 'tang car'

Guess what the first link is...

Spellchecker picked me up on "preferred" before printing The AST's were at 7/6 IIRC when that shot was taken I was cornering quite hard though. Time for an new front ARB methinks

I like the lean.. adds a little life and movement..

Little Johnny will be jumping at the chance.. but I'd make sure it wasn't too aggressive mind as some mums and dads may not approve...

Oi!

Be accompanied by both great grandparents, have held a full license for over 30 years, never had an accident and still have all your own teeth



Flash of inspiration last night in bed saw us both giggling (careful Apple ) over the tag-line...
