Subject: RE: BS: Middle age crisis cars
Well I've hit my mid-60s, and my car - the most comfortable car I've ever owned - in immaculate condition, large, powerful, 23 years old, head-turning, sexy (hah!), silver, leather seats, thirsty, turbocharged - is my 1987 Volvo 240 GLT Estate...

Women don't throw their clothes at me when I drive past - they add an extra layer.

It's an old warhorse but it's only done 90,000 miles in 23 years and the 2.3 litre engine can pull 5 musicians and a ton of gear. Oh, and on a good day, I can get over 20mpg.
