I always theorised that unscrupulous dealers were aggressively upselling top spec models to vulnerable older people who came in for the base model.
In the early 90s I spoke to someone at a Ford dealer that said the reason lots of oldies in our area drove XR2s they'd bought in the 80s was that they went in to the showroom and demanded the top of the range Fiesta.Meanwhile, my old man bought my fairly modified Puma off me aged 70 and ran it in to the ground over the following decade.
Oh, and there used to be a woman in her 50s who drove into my place of work in a 90s Skyline.
Christ! Talking about 40's being old? I am 68 and drive a Cayman as a daily. 20k miles per year.
You guys make me feel I should trade in for a Zimmer!
Also probably drink too much, smoke too much and my daughter asks me when I am going to grow up?
Answer? Never. Seen it and don't like the look of it.
Also feel about 25 so there!
