Well I'm nearly 48 on the outside but about 28 on the inside with the occasional drop to 19 or so depending on the girl or the road situation.

Full head of hair though I've been going grey since I was 20.

The advancing years do have compensation in the shape of a 635

Sorry to displace you, Parksie, but I'm 52, and there's at least two others on here older than me.
Insurance is now sub Ԛ£200, but wouldn't be if they knew how I drive.
What's the point of rear wheel drive if you don't kick the back end out now and again?

I'm 23 (i think always forget) Perfect age for holding lots of Beer!

Karen you look old for a 19 yearr old! Must be your car.....
Nelly your wife must be doing a god job keeping you looking young! Thought you were only a year or two older than me..............

not really mate! Ԛ£70 covers food, board, use of another car if req'd, Ironing and washing (done by me usually) plus the parents paid out lots to support me when I was a nipper :wink: consider it 'repayments' of a sort.

as for holding beer i'm 24 and bet Ԛ£5 I could drink you under the table :lol:
