The Opel Adam is named after the Opel founder Adam Opel. Nothing wrong there - or you should have included the Ferrari Enzo and made fun of that name too?
The Opel/ Vauxhall Adam is named Adam because of the founder of Opel. Whose name used to be Adam Opel. So if the Opel is not allowed to be called Adam then the Ferrari Enzo is not allowed to be called that. Or the Bugatti Chiron is not allowed to be called Chiron. Get your facts straight.
It doesn't make it any less of a poor choice for a car. If my name was Enzo i would call every piece of work i ever did, including children and pets Enzo, it is bloody brilliant. Adam - well that's just dull regardless of the facts
Actually, Skoda Superb was the largest limousine in Skoda model range before second world war. That actually means, Superb is a good name for the largest model in Skoda range today. Oh, and there is something worse than Opel/Vauxhall Adam - Opel Karl (Vauxhall Viva in the UK). Why, why would Opel give their small 5-door hatchback the same name as German accountant with creepy mustache.
Because in French it’s pronounced M-R—Deux sounds like merde (shit) in French..... But Toyota realised this and marketed it as the MR-S in France......
