For no apparent reason I started calling the chassis/car 'she' in recent posts.
I don't usually name cars however there is a precedent:
My old Spitfire was called Jessica 'J' for short after Francesca Annis' portrayal of Jessica in Dune & I made a brass monogram for the dash.
My wife mentioned the Zero should be Rachael, referencing Rachel De Thame, but I think Rachael from Blade Runner might be a better inspiration - the red lips and black hair match the colour scheme.
Rachael only lived for 4 years though...
