Oldest & Youngest owners?

46 here. To old to worry about how to set things up to record, and too tired to care about how the young ones can afford it. I'm not sure when the transition from Angry young guy to grumpy old man took place, but my kids assure me that the transition is complete. :x My Zed is the first performance car i have had or have been able to afford to have and i have no intention of getting rid. :driving:
 
It's the old question - is it the age or the mileage? Either way, 47 at least. :(

First proper sports car at 28 and yes, insurance was what you'd expect.

It's always us "veterans" who are up this early. The need to pee! Mind you, the youngsters are probably just going to bed?

So true i get up the time i used to go te bed on a Saturday morning

47 :( like to meet the person and said life begins at 40 and punch them on the nose i,m falling to bits these days all though i can still outpace the youngsters at work they are so lazy
 
Not just the old folk that get up early: years and years of 4.30am starts for swimming training in my youth until I saw sense about 8 years ago. But early starts are now bred into me it seems, I think lie-in's are wasted opportunities for a spot of driving sometimes :driving:
 
I'm 23, I haven't many people my age in one although I saw a guy who looked about 26 drive out of the work car park in a M coupe recently. We gave each other the Z4 nod. :rofl:
 
28 here.... iplayer is my friend when it comes to the F1!

Though i'd get my stint of convertibles out of the way while i still have hair on my head!

Thats my prob as i get up at 5am every day so i am normally up at 6am or earlier on a Sat and as you said great time to go for a drive my neighbours think i never use my car by the time they get up i have been out and sometimes finished washing the car.

For the Z4 dust caps, McBeee got them for me from the US Genuine BMW ones I think, it's the only thing I had better than Dave and his Z4M lol

22, 3.0SE

My 4th BMW,I was looking at either 350z GT or Early 3.2 Boxster S ...

Although I think I am a completely neutral and level headed petrol head I must admit I am fond of Beemers :(

And yes I payed for it myself.... :P
 
25 here, 24 when I got it. Love my coupe! Had it for a year now, and still enjoying it!
 
28 a fortnight ago...

Insurance isn't that bad, E46 M3 at 24 was £1200 and I pay a little over half that now
