I'm 26 but got the r75 from my uncle prior car was a blue abarth punto with full factory body kit with the alloys to match and a red interior, big change and have went from the other end of the spectrum! However gridspokes are being fitted monday and considering the 160 tune up and gonna tint the back of the tourer and hopefully should give me the mean looks but keep the luxury interior feel!

Ha Ha 56 and Saga Insured £150 per annum. Trouble is just received a ticket for 85 in a 60 somewhere in Gloucester on the A417. Unfamiliar roads for me, was rushing home from Snowdonia with 8 week old pup, Whoops.

So I think these cars suit all ages

My wife has already told me that she want's to keep rosey forever, this is her first car so you can imagine what she is like. Crawling around everywhere waving to other rovers that she sees on the road. Not your typical 23 yr old!

That's just naughty.

And you are paying less a year than i am a month for insurance

Made the lady of the house the main driver and put me on as a name because i have a works van, young (23) = HUGE insurance premium

I can tell how much you love it from the photo on your signature. She looks lovely by the way

Just remember.... age is but a number. Also growing old is compulsory, but growing up is voluntary

Both me and the wife are 47, and while I drive the 75, she has a Rover Tomcat

I'm sort of 32. When I hit 40 I started counting backwards, the reason being when I'm 2 my kids can feed me and change my nappies...
