Mambow!

I know a lot of people like to give their car a name. And that’s fair enough I guess. Each to their own and all that.

But there are names, and then there are names. Some of them are so good that it would appear they need to be written on the car for the whole world to see. And when you’ve chosen a name as good as Mambow, then why not?

A Mambow indeed eh? It’s even got a bed! I’m sure if I’d had this vehicle when I was single, I’d have been beating the ladies away with sticks.

How much fun it would have been to utter the line “Would you like to come and see my Mambow?”

Oh, the number of juvenile quips associated with this must be endless. Must resist…

By the way, what’s a mambow?

    Mambow is the japanese name for the odd looking ocean sunfish (my favorite undersea creature)- its that giant fish that looks like half a fish and its used a lot in anime/videogames/advertising in Japan.
