Citroen Hot Food Van

[bluewillow]

A Citroen Hot Wheels car picked up a few weeks ago whilst shopping, I opted to paint it in split colours. I do intend adding a table and garbage bin on the grassed area as soon as I find them in my model railway bits box, it will join my Cold War terrain collection.

Now I need a name for it! My wife suggested to call it “Matts chew and spew”….. as she detests take away food.





Cheers

Nice little chip van!

I'd be inclined to commemorate Anglo-French amity as well as tip of the hat to motowrway cafs with Egon René or perhaps as tribute to the fine fare available Mitch & Ellen's Chip Van.

Yes my intention is to have something that is suitable for Germany, so thinking a German name, German menu…..Bratwurst and cabbage anyone?

I love that, definitely something to keep an eye out for. Lots of character which you’ve enhanced with what you’ve done with it. Great..

Heiße Wurst
Würstchenbude
Bratwurst-Wolfgang (or insert any other German owner's name)
Pommesbude
Bratwurst & Pommes Frites
Currywurst
Brathähnchen
Grillhähnchen

Something rather neutral?
Stehimbiss
Imbissbude
Getränkestand
Schnellimbiss
...

If you are after a specific German region, there could be plenty of typical local/regional dialectic names for particular culinaric specialties as well - just name it!
Knödel-Else
Weggla-Erich
Kohl und Pinkel
Brezen-Karl
Buletten-Fritze
Reiberdatschi
Leberkäs-Beppo
...

All fantastic suggestions.

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Very nice.

[ulverston]

Thats really effective, does it work for 15mm?

Upon reflection you should probably aim for a name with one of those mind-bendingly awkward German compound nouns that wraps itself all the way around the van and requires a team of lexicographers to adequately decipher and explain.
