I wonder if someone can help me.
I will soon have two vehicles. A Nissan Note & a mobility scooter. I’ll be carrying the scooter in the Note, usually.
So, I want to give them both complimentary names.
I’m considering Spitfire & Hurricane, but maybe you have more interesting ideas?
I will want to have vinyl stickers made up, so they can be placed over the rear quarter of each vehicle.
I was thinking of maybe:
Spitfire
My other vehicle is Hurricane
with an image of a Spitfire on this sticker
and
Hurricane
My other vehicle is Spitfire
with an image of a Hurricane on this sticker
I can get bumper stickers made up like this, but I can’t find a MATCHING pair of images. It’s proving particularly difficult to find top down views of the Spitfire, for instance. Which I find a bit odd, given it’s unusual wing.
Can anyone help with this, or other classic pairs – I’d love to see any suggestions?
Thanks.

Any other ideas?

Not unless he’s going to deliberately ram cars, surely?
Apollo and Eagle?
Or Apollo & Starbuck (Lee & Kara)
Ohka & Betty starting to look much better, now you’ve pointed that out.
Never actually hit another car myself, but plenty have hit me, and stacks in the mirror.

As you’ve got a Japanese car, how about Ohka and Betty

Unless it’s got wings, it isn’t going to get airborne either!:D (Even if it was made by Piaggio).
Maybe I should name them – Red & Bull
Because we all know what gives you wings!
But looking at fictitious aviation pairs, we could go for “Angel” and “Cloudbase”.

But I am also considering “Stan” & “Ollie” or “Reggie” & “Bertie” (for non-Wodehouse readers that’s Jeeves & Wooster).

Already considered, but the scooter isn’t submersible. I also considered “The Mole”, but it isn’t subterranean either. 😀

Not 100% aviation… but Thunderbirds 2 and 4!

Heinkel & doodlebug?

Interesting. 😀
I wonder if I should go the “naval” route, given that I live in Plymouth.
Naaa.
Invincible and Harrier, sounds good to me.

Steering away from the parasite types (but there was the Peacemaker (B-36) and Pongo (small fighters) you could call your loadhauler Nissan “York” and your scooter “Lancaster”

An-225 and the Buran shuttle? 🙂

Easy one…
Since the Nissan is carrying the scooter, I’d suggest:Maia for the Nissan
and
Mercury for the scooterNamed after the Shorts Mayo parasite/composite flying boats of the 30s.
Not many will get it, but your aviation friends will. 😉See them here:

Here’s a period news article from Time magazine..
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,848848,00.htmlIf you want to go light, you can go with R33 and Hummingbird
or Akron and Sparrowhawk…or if you’re feeling fast..
Stratofortress and X-15.
or Blackbird and D-21…
Maia & Mercury – very clever, I had given some thought to this kind of combo., but couldn’t place any.

I was think along the same lines, its like a Mistel combination.

What about ‘747 and Shuttle’ ??
