average age of the 75 driver
 

during my enjoyable trip to sainsburys with the wife :duh:
i nice elderly gentleman came up to me in the carpark and said not seen one of them for ages,looked inside and all over it.
i explained it was a rolling project but im getting there,nice to see a british car still on the road etc
and then hit me with are you not a bit young to be driving a 75!
im 49 more or less retired bit of grey hair slim 6FT 2
i just wondered what the ages are of the many 75 drivers out there

So am I, in my head. Then my body tells me otherwise. :getmecoat:

Bought at 48 and now I’m 53.
I’ve been buying BL cars since I was 17. Austin 1100 cost me £35.:D

I got mine at 49 or 50 and agree, it is an old mans car

Evening,
Bought my first 75 when I was 65, second 75 at 65 and third 75 at 66 (last week).
I will have to stop buying 75s! although a 2.5 V6 would complete the set!
Bought my MG Midget when I was 21 and it is still in the garage....and nearly as decrepit as me!
