It's simply "The Scirocco" to wife, family, and friends and, since no
one knows anyone else who has (or ever has had) one, that's specific
enough.  I tend to refer to it as "The VW" as I refer to my wife's car
as "The Mercedes".  The Ranger is just "the truck" so, as you can see,
there's not much imagination going on here.

Some other vehicles I have either owned or known well:

1939 Packard sedan (black)"The Black Bitch"
1978 Dodge pickup (faded yellow)"Old Puke"
1983 Mercedes 380 SEL "Kreuzer" (German for 'cruiser', slightly
smaller than a battleship)
1966 Honda 50 m/c "Wild Thing"
1973 Chevy Impala (company car, forest green, black walls, soup bowl
hubcaps) "The Narc mobile"
