I subscribe to Classic Bike and each month I look through the For Sale section. Continually amazed by the prices asked for some bikes that "back in the day" would never have been envisaged as becoming classics.
 
Ah the old Focus ASBO. Anyone under 30 in one of them just looks like they're having a mid life crisis.

Goes like the clappers though doesn't it?

Good luck old man

Jeez! I can remember when it was a 200Z! I 'housed' a US Tennis player in '88 who stated she intended buying a 300Z - for her mother after winning the tournament - having lost in the 1st round of the previous 5 and this was the last before returning home! She ricked her back in the warm-up for the final, but did Ok from there - she's now President of the USTA!

Nope, they don't put um in any more. Don't smoke in the car anymore anyhow, got a little one. Only place I can smoke is at work or the top of the garden at night. Its got me down to 3 a day in the week, then 15 on the golf course...
 
Did my mid life crisis at 30. Joined the council estate Ferrari boys and got an Impreza. A lovely classic WRX STi V-Limited that was running at around 350BHP, but without stupid big after market wheels and a bean can exhaust system.

Know I'm knocking on the door of 40 I have a wife and 3 kids to get around so a nice sensible 5 Series is my ride of choice now. But then again it is the 550i Msport with that lovely big V8 under the bonnet...........:whoo:

The new Tesla comes with an 'insane' mode... 0-60 in 3.2 sec... I would not mind getting one of that. Got my lottery ticket and not afraid to use it..

Certainly a car on my shopping list, drove a few of them. This is definatly turning into a car of choice for people with money now. A lot of the pilots where I work have them and although never actually tried the insane mode, when you do touch the pedal, they just go. Weird car though, totally silent and amazing to drive.
