German car door syndrome

When you want to humourously imply that take away rubbish, pizza boxes etc. can be thrown out of the car by holding the door ajar and sliding the boxes under the car. Has its origins in Northern England which had uncommonly high number of Golf ownership amongst young adults in the 90s.

social distancing car

A humorous nickname for the Toyota Corona, referencing its name in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for social distancing. The term plays on the idea of keeping a safe distance, much like the car's name suggests.

Ever since the pandemic started, my friends have been calling my old ride the 'social distancing car' because it's a Toyota Corona!
