The founder of this brand had to find a name for his garage, so he asked his wife that night. It turned to a violent argument about drinking habits. And hence, she zero, he 88. But then, where does that lead to...?

Noticed that there's still no 'official' answer...

I think, it was, officially, one of the most bewildering posts on the forum :lol::lol: Maybe there is some great conspiracy about the origins of the name Zero88, and you've stumbled too close to the truth 8O

 

Perhaps we could start a "most bewildering post of the year" award...??? Any nominations? None of mine please!

And, considering the mentioned conspiracy hypothesis, there has never been proposed a brand renaming due to the concealed sipping habits of the successive executives.

All leading to:

Brand reference number 088 #2: What was the initial name of the first owners garage?

(first nomination)
