The Suzuki Swift. No it bloody ain’t.

Depends on the model though.

Surely two words never to be used in car nomenclature either separately or together are “Terror” and “Can”.

There is of course the Nissan Cedric.  their big luxury car IIRC.  A very aspirational name

Mrs Scape's first car was a 1978 Datsun 140J. In some markets it was known as the Nissan Violet.

Caravans are a rich vein it would seem. Saw one the other day called a Pastiche, and wondered why you want to call something that...

Not a product exactly, but the Home Office's 'Leave to Remain' makes no sense at face value.
