This is why I bought mine...

I also bought one at 26, but came from something with only 120bhp

Although the new generation of hatches is ridiculously quick none of them are as special as a proper sports car.

29, and ironically, on the topic of hot hatches not doing it for people, I will be selling the z4 to my dad in the new year as my 'hot hatch' focus RS arrives next year. Once I drove one there was no going back, the turn in is so quick and direct it made my Z4c feel like a mondeo on the way home. Truly awesome car.

Hoi jonger!
Welkom in onze leuk forum.
Maar niet zo veel hier de nederlands taal spreken denk ik...

Dat valt nog reuze mee Chris! Zijn stiekem nog best een paar Nederlanders te vinden hier :wink: Whereabouts in the Netherlands are you based?

As for me: 29 and dreading the big 30 considerably less than I’d anticipated. Bring on that “prime of your life”-thing everyone’s on about 8)
