Do certain cars suit an age group?

I drive a Saab 9-3 and a yellow diesel Corsa, what does that say about me?

You'll soon learn not to ask those sort of questions here!

In my case early 20s to late 60s.

60s in my case.

It costs me a month's pension a year to tax, insure and MOT my cars but hey-ho, you only live once.

I bought my 1 and only V8 when I was 20 - maybe I'm regressing!

Most 2 seater cars don't seem to fit any age group - they are just as likely to appeal to someone in their 20s as to someone in their 70s (and any age in between)!

I bought my first V8 at 41 (Lexus LS400) and my second LS400 when the first one hit 183,000 miles.
I bought my third V8 at 58, a TVR Chimaera, and I still have it, though it has been a 4 litre, 5 litre and is now a 4.6 litre with a turbo.

I bought some TVR parts a couple of years ago off an ex-owner who was about 25....he had sold his V8 Chimaera to buy a V12 E Type (and some shares in Shell, presumably).
