Back from shopping in Milton Kyens, on A5, I was just wondering why i didn't see the other scooby today. After 10 secs, there was a MY03 Sti with full body kit passing by. I flashed but no respond. Looked carfully, there was a very very old lady, maybe 70 or more driving in it. I can't believe it that such an old lady can handle that monster. Amazing. Concentrated on that, i almost involved in a crash.

So there is another question coming out. That is who is the oldest and youngest scooby driver here?

In my area there is an old grey haired chap (age I dont know) who drives a silver EVO 8 FQ. And also I don't know if this counts but when I lost my license, my mother (in her 50s bless her) had to drive my 300BHP GTIR 200 miles down the M4 to Oxford.

In my younger days as a wielder of the white van weapon I had a dice with rather an old lady in a VR6 golf (this was when they were quite new and rare))

I might not be the oldest, but certainly a member of the Grumpy Old Men Club at 50 with a 2000 turbo wagon (and non of them new-fangled modding things on it). No baseball cap yet (either way round - although would cover the rapidly disappearing hair) but loud music with plenty of rock on it from Rammstein to Nickleback. And a Road Angel to remind me not to act my shoe size. When I remember to plug it in...................

I once drove past a couple of pensioners in a
Renault 5 GT Turbo Raider. Took me a while to
recover from that one!
