Plenty of old duffers in much more powerful cars, Porsches and the like, driving around. These cars remind them of the cars they coveted when they were younger, but couldn't afford.
Not many of them go for models that smell of guacamole though.  ;D

 It was an identical burrito bus, even on a 23 plate. Must be the new way to waste their pension pot, instead of buying wobble boxes or Motor-knomes.

When I bought it, swmbos comment was "Im not getting in it. Its your mid life crisis and Im having nothing to do with it".  ;D
Had to collect her from hospital one night a few months later and took the Boxster, so she had to get in it.
Her comment then " its like being sat in an old Morris Minor".  ;D

Due to creaks & rattles I think, which is to be expected from an old convertible I suppose.
Apparently if I were to spend £1000 on the parts and refresh the suspension there would be less creaks & rattles, but that aint gonna happen.  :)

Lord Opti has a doppleganger?  ::)                                                                                                                           ;D


 I did assume it was his Lordship,taking the lady about to show her the rougher parts of the world, after it was nearly planted into the front of my mighty Vivaro, the lady started to shout at said old type person who was trying to make the Burrito bus go in a rearward directions, then decided he couldn't and drove off, to find an easier space..
