Beats me, after checking with my better half, I'm told I'm a '66 vintage. Really need to remember my DoB, as I would have added a few years to that.

10/3/51 but my sometimes passenger (mother) was born in August 1917 must rate as one of the oldest. She also prefers the hood to be down!

Pretty sure Gookah would win oldest person with an ///M. Looking at him he must have been born in the late 1800's and I've heard he pushes down the clutch pedal with a walking stick :shock:

His next vehicle could be a mobilty scooter with 19's and an ///M badge :roflmao:

Guess I'm winning 1949. A dubious distinction but enjoying it, have just sold my beautiful blue/orange Westfield kit car to buy this wife friendly Z3. Lovely car, the 1.8, nice shape but already hankering for the 2.2 or even 2.5. Miss the power surge of the kit. Am motorbike man at heart but also want to stay married.

Hi oap70, I was also born 1940 and celebrating 32 again this year, but Walter05 above beats us both! My Z3 also doesn't come out unless the top can go down. It has never reached the end of my road with the hood up!

Did you know... that even in a downpour with the hood down you won't get wet if you keep the speed north of eighty (in Germany of course)!

Hi Mr Silver,
Yep they don,t build them us any more, The number of times i see open top cars with the top up ! But I have strict orders from she who will be obeyed , that rain = top up , although i do try for a passing shower approach prior to closing .
