Slang names for car manufacturers

I know its not MK1 related but what the hey!! Does anyone out there have slang names for other car manufacturers? We all know scoobys are Subaru's and pugs are Peugeot's etc… but do you have any more? Heres my diffinative list! Ive not included any VW related ones coz I'd be here all day quite frankly!
Subaru - Scooby Doo
Peugeot - Pug
Porsche - Porker
BMW - Beemer
Volvo - Vulva
Argh! Brain freeze! Sure I'll think of more later!

mercedez = Merc, or a benz
Rolls Royce = Roller
Lamborghini = Lambo

if you think about it most are jsut abbreviations.

i know its not manufacturer but

Impressive list 'pitslayer', please take a bow! I have a few more myself but cant share them here for fear of being booted off this fantastic family friend forum! Bit rude, they are! Few more clean ones -

SUV/4x4 - school buses, you only ever see mums or childminders using these for the school run and the only bit of 'off roading' theyre ever likely to do is bumping up the kerb to park on the pavement.

I also do the 'names backwards' thing    Pol's are Olops

Corsa/Saxo - Chavmobiles, usually with silly Lexus style lights and a big exhaust, now thats individuallity - Losers!

Saxo - Suxo
