Its like a multi storey carpark with glass front. Filled with every super car you can think of. The local authorities have made the owners shutter it off from the road as there were crashes all day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl114 Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 When you are 65!!!!! This isnt an old mans car, hey could be worse, I could own the same car as Jezza who is an old, fat balding man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesterfield Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Gorgeous cars, they are certainly not old mans cars the vantage. They exude class while still being a brash sports car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Gorgeous cars, they are certainly not old mans cars the vantage. They exude class while still being a brash sports car. I beg to differ. I've never seen anyone under 40 driving one and at 380 bhp I'd rather TT a zed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC350z Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I know of two brothers in their 20's that both drive DB9's bought by Daddy. To be honest it just looks wrong. It does seem to suit the old driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem to suit the old driver. Exactly. I'm not saying they aren't nice cars as they are but they certainly aren't brash sports cars and the typical drivers do tend to be semi retired chief execs who spend most of their time at the golf course. I would buy one, when I'm too old to be driving a brash sports car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NismoDave Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Youre all skippy, i think the first one is a much sexier colour than the red one.......... Mind you, i am colour blind.....but it looks gorgeous to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I think the reason cars like this are usually associated with older people is because it takes years of hard work for them to get in a position to afford them (usually). My neighbour's dad has a ferrari an aston and has just bought an orange lambo like sarnies - he's in his 50's. He's grafted his way to riches and said he can remember getting really excited about a celica GT4 some years ago before he became mega wealthy.

I'm sorry but I see loads of Ferrari's and Lambo's driven by young people ( Under 35 ish). Astons are old mans cars full stop. Old men like them because they are not fast, brash, loud or particuarly attention grabbing. All the complete opposite of ferrari's and Lambo's. Personally I think there is nothing worse than an old man in a Lambo, hence why I bought mine at 27. The last thing I'd want at 55 is a decatted gallardo with a Tubi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_350z Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Sarnie, are you coming to the 'Ring with me + others next year? The Ferrari drivers stand out a mile.. .not because of their cars, but because they are always - without exception - the loudmouth, non-petrol head twats in the garish "look at me" outfits... and they drive their ferraris round the ring like Noddy and Big Ears. Come and prove them all wrong with the bull! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 My mate has one and is 24! He sold his 996 GT3 to get it. The car before was a 911 C4S which he gave to his Mum! It is VERY nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
