How old are you?

[andrewb]

Guys
Im getting some some stick at work for choosing such a "young looking car"
(Leon FR TDi, Black, 18in alloys, Bluetooth, Armrest)
Comments like "are you having a mid life crisis" are being thrown around.
All very funny for the idiots making them, but its got me thinking -
At 43 am I too old to be driving this car?
I would be interested to here your ages and comments please.

22? a young looking car for a young guy! But is the car too mature for me? its got four doors and a nice big boot

 

[CupraDaft]

I'll be 35 next month. I love the way my car looks, don't care what anyone says.

 

[JohnnyDrama]

I'm 22, but I think I'm a bit young for the car...

Wouldn't take any notice of what people say!

One of my managers is in his late 40's and bought a Mitsubishi Evo.

One of my team leaders is coming up to retirement and bought a Civic Type R!!

One of the techs I work with is in his mid 40's and has a modified Corrado VR6 & Mk3 Golf VR6.

My uncle is in his mid 50's and just bought a new Fiesta ST!

You're never too old to get enjoyment out of something

As Dan says, is my Leon too mature for me - having 4 doors and a boot??

At The Moment You Are The Oldest.

Im 21. 4 door and a diesel, what’s happened?? Lol

 

[siwel]

I'm 33 and until last year I had a pretty modified nissan pulsar gti-r and a mazda rx-7 3rd gen, both of which I'd owned for ages. When I changed cars I was looking at an evo, skyline and a sensible option.

In the end I went for the sensible option because I was fed up paying to insure group 20 cars, getting at best 22mpg and having to fix expensive problems when the break down. So as far as I'm concerned my new shape TDi sport is a very sensible old mans option, I'm almost 34 and I still think too young to have such a sensible car.

Its a load of rubbish, you're only as young as you feel (or is that the women you feel never mind)
Anyway I'm 45 and I have an FR.

Don't listen to them they're jealous

I use that line often, except for me it's my husband and he is 11 years older than me...eeck!!

That's is why I drive the FR and he has a 1.2 Ibiza Sport. Hee hee!!!!

 

[Southender]

I'm 40!! 18 year old trapped in a 40 year body...and i amazed myself buying something with four doors!! must be my age!

 

[Carnivor]

Im 34, cant see how it matters how old you are, saw a 70+ in a evo the other day, he was killing it mind, dont think he realised the thing had more than 2 gears!

second oldest now.

 

[Glovepup]

I'm 27 and awaiting my new baby

 

[Xe]

Well I'm 27. I don't feel too young or to old for this car, in fact it feels perfect, and its my first ever car. 4 door was a must with a wee one.

 

[jon1]

22, i feel too young for the car(FR TFSI) but hey its bright yellow

 

[badtastebear]

Who cares about age?? I dont and the people that take the mick are only jealous cos you've chosen a great car!!!!!

 

[jonjay]

I am 24 and drive a leon fr tdi.
Brother is 33 and drove a Suberu WRX STi
Uncle is 58 (lives in cyprus) drives a Sierra Cosworth, modified, 0-62mph 5.0 and top speed of 180mph.

i dont see what the problem is

 

[Michael B]

Im 20 and sometimes feel too young to be driving such a nice car! lol

Though - i dont see what their problem is, anyone can have an interest in a car no matter what ae you are, wonder what they would say if you bought a GT TDI Golf what they would say? May look a 'little' more sensible, but same car.. Anyone can drive a golf

 

[Tam]

I'm 28 and will still be getting cars like this when i get to your age
