Drimble asks: When was it last brought home to you just how old you're getting? We last asked this in 2004, and you're eight years older now. Eight. Years.

Although, I'm almost old enough now to think buying a Jensen Interceptor for weekend fun is a good idea.
7.2 litre V8. Maybe not.

I do love old cars though, hence the Jag as it's the closest I can get without driving something that'll explode at the merest brush with 40mph.

Sometime in the next 5 years, I will get myself a proper toy.
Maybe a triumph Stag, which is half way.

I thought the owners were a bit oddly fanatical about them until I drove one. Cost fuck all second hand as well.

I drive a Skoda and do you know what? It's actually rather good.
Pass the pipe and slippers please...

I traded in a 3l z4 for mine. Not quite a Porsche but a nice car...

It was cheap
My car had died and I needed one for work
It was nearby, and is likely to be reliable
I keep repeating these facts to myself and trying to forget that my dad was also 33 when he first bought a Volvo ....
