we know what you drive and what you do!but how old are you??

Recommended Posts

This thread is just depressing - I feel so old (even more so after the beers last night)

 

I'm 37 and have two littluns. I've owned a long list of cars (can't be ar5ed typing them all here). Highlights would be a 12 month old factory built Westfield Seight (4.0 litre V8 in a car weighing 700 kg - over 400BHP/Ton) - mad car, huge fun :D :D :D . Lowlights would be my mum's mustard coloured Austin Allegro that I learnt to drive in :oops: . Also had a few motorbikes too but none currently :( .

 

Wanted a VR6 for a while and the opportunity presented itself a couple of months ago so I took it. Very happy with it, doing about 500 miles a week.

I'm 24 - got my Corrado in August, before that I had a grey e-plate 3i that blew up on me and then a series two RST that was nothing but trouble but I loved them both. I am really surprised at the no. of ex XR3i drivers that now own Corrado's. Looking forward to 25th birthday for cheap insurance and maybe a VR6.

And I think he first started driving it when he was 15! - makes you sick doesn't it, I had to wait until I was 17 before I drove my first Corrado G60 8)

I am 32, bought my VR6 when I was about 26 and paid about £700 for insurance. Insurance on the Skyline cost me £1290 at my last renewal and my Audi £350
