"Donks" are also a style of custom car in the States.
No, I don't understand it either.

There is something definitely un right about the other side of the pond. Those wheels on those cars are just soooo not right. I despair of them ever evolving.

"Donk" as engine I guess comes from Donkey - don't know about anything else but lots of working boats have a "donkey engine" to do the work, ie turning a capstan to haul a net in .......

Why donkey?  Cos it does the donkey work!
