26 here, 25 when I got her. I thought about it for a while but only got around to doing quotes shortly before I bought - less than £400 seemed reasonable considering my first year cost north of £2k back when I was 17...
Average age of zed pilots
- Thread starter SeanConnor
- Start date
I'm 25, had the Zed for just over 2 years.... Seemed like a logical (?) move from my Mini One when the insurance for the Mini was actually more expensive than my Zed....No idea how that works... :?
Anyway, 6 cylinders is better than 4

I'm 24. Was 20 (almost 21) when I got my Z. Insurance is 500
17 when I got my first car - Mark 1 Ford Escort. Got a Spitfire 1500 when I was 22. Then followed a whole string of boring family cars except my much loved 1996 328i coupe. Got the Zed last year. Now 59 physically, mid-twenties mentally! At least my insurance is cheap!

Seems like 59 was the year
( 56 in June ).Did they have power cuts that year??
Up to now I seem to be the oldest at 66 ,prior to the Z4 I had a 2ltr Z3. I use the soft tops for sunny days in the main.
Prior to buying the Z3 I had motor bikes and as I was getting older my reactions were getting slower and I was going to end up meeting my maker sooner than I intend.
I still do a lot of my own work on my motors,age is a state of mind.My attitude is you have one life,make the most of it . :roll:

Polls on this have been done a few times....over the years it has shown/been known that ,for a few years now, the age has ranged from late teens, through to 70-plus age groups and everything in between, so a broad range.
Although as the cars get older and more affordable, the owner dynamic has changed, as happens. Its all good though, and this forum is still the best there is, due to the variety of people on here.
I was in my 30's before I got my 1st z4, coming from various "mildly mod'd" hot hatches
