Who has a classic the same age as themself?

[Kentish]

Mine is a 1969 MGB GT series 2.

[Mars]

I don't but I understand why you'd want one. Before I bought my current toy car (a crashed Caterham requiring a rebuild), I was toying with the idea of a 1968 Lotus Elan +2. As it happened I never found a 1968 version. Both 1967 and 1969 cars appeared for sale but never a 1968. If I'd found one, I probably would have bought that instead of the Caterham.

Thats a lovely looking car. Its looks like new. I bet theres a lot of people that have cars that came out when they were teenagers.

I don't own A classic the same age as myself - currently have three

1973 Triumph Spitfire (~2 months older than me).
1972 Triumph 2.5PI (~6 months older than me).
1972 Triumph 2.5PI (not sure but skulking on a driveway awaiting restoration and a V8 engine - because you can).

My buddy has a Triumph 2000 (about his age) and it is fantastic, really low miles and is mint, even has the plastic on the insides of the doors.

It must have been garaged all it's life, it is like new.

I'd love to own something like that and it wasn't expensive at all.

I am two years older than mine, does that count? They were both being built when I was born.

Can't do pics from this PC

Mine are both slightly older then me, 1977 Stag and 1976 Series3 Land Rover. I was born in '79.

[The Nur]

Sorry, no pics but I have a 1988 (one year younger than me) volvo 480 with 19k on it

Funnily enough, so am I.

Though my classic is a bike...

The bike dates from 1981, I come from '79.

[Alex]

I am 17 years older than my classic.

[scovette]

My old daily driver and I were both born in '76:

[therealpigdog]

My girl is three years older than me but she's had work done so is probably in better condition!

[Mazda Baiter]

My Formula Ford is an '84 car. It would have been built at the end of the previous year for delivery in early '84.

I need a Sierra RS500 Cosworth.

[Willber]

Got a 1990 Golf Gti although it is 2 years newer than me!

[sadako]

My MR2 is only 7 years younger than me, i think that is close enough unless i can trade it for a 1980 Datsun 240z...

[MadRob6]

My 944 is the same age as me. It's a 1983 model and is currently undergoing a bit of a restoration to get it back on the road.

[siwebster]

Ours is a 1972 beetle, but has a lot of 1973 parts, does this count?

[GKP]

Of the two of us, my 1976 Esprit S1 is a mere spring chicken. I, however, am still able to move around under my own power.

[volvos60s60]

1962 TR4, in better shape than me though
