Volkswagen is really getting on my nerves with its name trends. Fox,
Golf, Jetta, Beetle, Rabbit - all clever and acceptable names.

Toureg? Sorry Mike - I know you love the Toureg - but that name bugs
me... however not more than their new offerings - the Tiguan? Sounds
like a bloody lizzard...

And I saw on TV - VW's new (big) minivan? WTF its name was I cant
remember but it was more funky than anything.
