pcw1982 Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Hey guys, I was reading a thread on the mods section and can't believe how young some people were. I thought I was doing well to get my Z at 26 but apparently not! If your not too embarrased can people share ages, purely out of good old fashioned nosiness of course! Quote
cfoster Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 29 now but had an Escort Cosworth when I was 19 if thats any good!!!!! Quote
pcw1982 Posted March 19, 2009 Author Posted March 19, 2009 Find it hard to believe, but good news though I assumed Z owners were all old guys, amazed you (including me I suppose) can afford a Z so young! Good on you Quote
MattMe Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 I'm 25 this weekend and bought my Zed last week. Not insuring it till next week cos it'll save me around £400 on my insurance. Short answer: 24.9 Quote
Chris`I Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Prices have fallen a lot recently so you will get people even younger getting them now. I think when I got mine, early 20s was the youngest on here, but I think thats a lot more common now. Quote

S1 HNK Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 29 now but had an Escort Cosworth when I was 19 if thats any good!!!!! that must have been one of the hardest cars to insure back then, i'm guessing you weren't on your own policy with that!! Quote

marzman Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Got mine 2 weeks after my 24th birthday. Again, wish i'd waited a year too... could have bought a 911 now for what i paid for it Quote
kObi Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 had my rx8 when i was 23, turned 24, waited afew more months......got a zed Quote
cfoster Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 29 now but had an Escort Cosworth when I was 19 if thats any good!!!!! that must have been one of the hardest cars to insure back then, i'm guessing you weren't on your own policy with that!! Surprisingly it wasnt too bad, i had 3 points and a couple of years no claims and it was about £1200 fully comp with mods declared!! (my own policy, mum would never put me on her insurance!!!!)!! Totally off topic but just found an old pic of her!!! Those were the days!! Chris Quote
rtbiscuit Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 27, got the zed a month before my 27th birthday. Quote
xStric9x Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 34 with no hair Ps I had a RS1600 escort when i was a young un What a car Quote
givememorepower Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Just turned 28 , bought my Z last year. I moved out at 21, and I've had 14 cars, 6 motorbikes, and 2 vans since I passed my test 8 years ago. Loads of quick cars that lost me money, each one being more powerful than the last, until I bit the bullet at 24 and owned a 324 bhp Evo. GGRRRRRRRR! It broke down all the time, my foot must have been too heavy. I chose my Z for it's sexy looks and reliable n/a V6. The handling was the selling point. Not the quickest car I've had but by far the best, and damn sexy. Always have a when I get in or out, or walk by her I never pictured a Zed as an old mans car, I bet you've upset a few old timers on here! Quote
