Hi Lock & Load,
Nice pic. :-)
Fancy an old codger of nearly 50 running around in a bright yellow sports car (It is the big Five-Oh come 12th Dec isn't it??).
I believe that when old chaps get that mid life feeling and want a sports car it's known as the "Male Menoporsche"......
Of course, the fact that I'm 57 and am also negotiating to buy a yellow RX8 has nothing to do with all this.....
Cheers, Chris

Having had 23 cars in 32 years , i think i have been going thru male mid -life crisis all my life , i have owned a total of 7 sports cars , plus everything else that took my fancy at the time .
Chris your choice of the yellow rx8 is a good one , just get used to the attention , i am going to become an apprentice rx8 sugar daddy in my old age .
As i stated before : GROWING OLD IS MANDATORY GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL .

I won't put a shot of my mush up - I'd be afraid of giving all of the forums youngsters nightmares :D

Quick inventory...

Commodores 3

I feel like I'm trying to support the car industry all by myself!
... and I don't want to think about motorbikes.

Mini van
MG TD 1952
MGA Twin Cam
MGA 1600
Mark 2 Jaguar (living in Brisbane then - 1970s)
Mini Moke
1940/50 (??) Dodge (big black side valve thing. drove like a tractor).

Renault 16Ts (one of the most fun to drive of all)
