I`m nearly 42.
Got a Leon Sport with the BTCC bodykit. I`ve changed the chrome front grill for the black one & had the doors mirrors sprayed in gloss black. The best of all, I have just had a remap to 177 bhp. Am I to old, I don`t think so! :p

have what you like

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.
Andy

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??

That's nothing. My Dad's 68 (69 next month) and currently has an 2005 Impreza WRX STi, in WR Mica Blue with Gold Wheels (of course). It's his 2nd Impreza and he loves it to death. Lots of people say "Is that your car!" always makes me laugh how many people talk to him about it. :D
