48. Older, greyer, can’t really say wiser, cars ain’t changed since last time either. It’s 3.5 years since I last bought a car, but with the prices the way they are now, no desire to change. If covid hadn’t happened, i’d have changed to an M760iL, but they’re £15k higher now than in early ‘20, and I don’t want one that much.

Dailies.

Forester & Panda Cross.



Toys.

'90, C4 targa & 1970 500L, the latter converted to electric power by Electric Classic Cars in 2020.



According to Mrs B I'm 12. Which is a bit harsh.

Loving that little fiat. What sort of range do you get from these classic conversions?

I’ve probably posted on this thread before, but now I’m 46, and these are my three:

The daily, handy for ferrying kids and the Labrador about the place:



The weekend fun one:



The one for roadtrips:

Sixty miles range in 'fun' mode and up to about seventy five to eighty in 'eco'.

It's a brilliant little car. IMO, far better than when it had its original engine and also when fitted with a 650cc unit, which was the motor we swapped out.

It's now a proper go kart. Though, it's Mrs B's car. So, I don't get to drive it as much as I'd like to.

Here's a walk around video of our car, made by ECC. In it, the conversion is described in depth.

Awesome, thank you for that. Looks a cracking little car 😀

73, so buying fewer cars these days, so here is update:

New this year - 2022 Cayenne GTS


Gone this year - 2008 Cayenne S


The following are staying:

2018 Panamera ST Turbo:


2016 991.1 RS and 2008 997.1RS


2005 Smart Fortwo:


Winter cars in Arizona:

2012 Jeep Wrangler:


2003 Mercedes SL500:


Only thing on order is a 992RS which will finalize that interest. Not selling until I am ready to give them all up and buy some plug-in thing.

Weekends drive only. Really don't use a car Monday to Friday. Had it a year, still loving it, and the noise.
Age 63.

Great stuff RDMcG - one of my favourite collection of cars on PH, and always love seeing pics of them. That incoming RS is going to be immense I would say!

I’m 26 and I drive an M2 LCI (manual). I’ve owned it just shy of 2 years now and somehow managed 23k miles despite working from home full time!



I also make use of my girlfriends 1.2 Vauxhall Adam for mundane/short trips - She is finally upgrading to a Volvo V40 T3 R-Design Pro (auto) which I’m looking forward to using!
