Getting into the car the other day, a coach driver who was parked up shouted your too old for that. As I'm 51 is it time, or are their older owners out there?

Kind regards,

James

TVR's are the cars we couldn't insure when we were younger, most owners don't seem to be that young thumbup

All men are aged 14 It's the experience that ages after that.

Exactly,
My body creaks more than a haunted house, but my mind never got past 16.

Why do old men drive fast cars? Because they can! I took my beloved 2006 Tuscan covertible to Monaco last year. 2400 miles through Scotland, England and France. Bliss. I am 61 years young.
