Yes, definately. I got my first Griff at 40, still love to drive it 15 months later as much as the day I bought it.

Have fun.

Congrats on the car, I can still remember my excitment when my first Tiv was delivered. It's also superb weather at the mo for roof off motoring although a bit on the chilli side and at last the constantly warm heater is welcome.

Have a fantastic time as I no doubt you will and take care in the wet.

Good on ya!

I spent the night before my Griffith collection in an Indian restaurant in London with a couple of mates.

Great meal and got wasted on great wine. Normally enough to make me zonk out for the night but, no chance.

Got about 30 minutes sleep in total.

Enjoy and relish Saturday mate!

Were we separated at birth? I just turned 40 and bought my first Griff yesterday! Stonking motor! I'm like a kid with a new toy - I keep checking the weather every 5 minutes to see if can go out in it!

All I can say is, there's now two more of us and two less of them!

Welcome to the club
I've had mine 5 weeks and I am still grinning like a moron every time I drive it

I've got tomorrow booked with the missus for some quality petrol wasting.

WOW, What a Car! What a Day! Finally got the long awaited griff, The drive home along the M6 in the rain was a bit scary though, just cant believe the sound, (Dont think the neighbours could either), god knows what the 4.3BV must sound like,keep nipping to the garage to check its still there. Thanks for all the posts guys your good wishes are much appreciated.

Be patient my boy, still working on photos, does anyone know how to post photos, the profile photos look simple enough, not sure how to post some on here though.

you have to host the pics on a website such as Fotango and the put the address of the pic on the website between two pic commands enclosed in square brackets with the second one having a forward slash.
It tells you how to do it under formatting codes.

If you need someone to host them for you just shout, it won't help but I'm sure there's plenty of people on here who will host them for you.

Don't they say life begins at 40? Well, you're certainly living proof of this!

Be very very excited and enjoy
