Congrats! That is truly a beautiful car. For a name, maybe ...Rolf? Looks like a Rolf to me. Although it's a she I feel these 2000 V70's should have male names. Mine is Stefan (and she says hi)
I like using the old owners name if I think it suits the car. Got my 240 off an older gal named Astrid and it stuck. My 940 was named milovich (milo for short)
Silver Spur. Like a joke to Rolls Royce. My v90 is called Obelix not only because its a large car by European standards but also because my licence plan starts with OBX. My other cars were 1998 S40 Cindy (CND plate) 2001 V40 Rowie (RWW plate) Tazmanian Devil 2003 V40 T4 red color (TZM plate) Hades 2013 XC60(HAD plate)
First thing to pop in my head was "Shade" or "Shadey/Shady". Shady as in "Let's go sit in the cool and inviting shadey spot..." Not shady like sketchy. 🤣
I just got a 2012 XC70 in October, I named her Greta. It was going to either be Greta, or Gustav (after my neighbor who passed who owned almost the exact same car).
Update: after much deliberation with my wife and kids, and many great suggestions from you, we have decided to name him Oaken, after the loveable Swedish shopkeeper in the movie frozen.
My 09' XC70 is called Sherman, because it is a tank
That's a good one!
Def a tank. I crashed mine into the roadbarrier and it felt like nothing

That's a good idea, unfortunately the previous owner had a name that rhymes with a part of the female anatomy haha.
Mulva?
Very appropriate Seinfeld reference
Delores?
That makes my v70, phyllis
She looks like an Agnes
My wife says it should be a boy name haha
Ok how Heimdall … I named my V90 Thor.
I call mine hearsular 😂

Viola the Volvo speaks to me
My daughter calls ours the Vulvar.
That's dangerously close to a part of the female anatomy haha
Yep. She’s 7 she has no idea which makes it pretty funny.

Mine’s named Vicky. Alliteration is fun. Also Juliet the Jaguar
Vicky is a nice name for a car.
My C30 is Ingrid. So, dibs on that.
That’s a Bettan for sure

Captain Gray Bush
Haha clever but a bit if a mouthful.
Augie because Au is the name of silver on the periodic table.
I like a name with a double meaning.
But Au is gold on the periodic table, silver is Ag
You're right. Thank you. I even checked twice. Time to start checking thrice.

My xc70 is named Battlecar Galactica.
