Er - what’s a V20...?! 😄

35, drive a C30. Bit of a let down compared to everything I've owned previously being the basic 1.6 diesel, I'm normally a Jap 2.0 Sport Coupe owner. 20K miles a year commuting now though, can't afford fun any more.

I'm mid 50s and have never bought a car newer that 2007, simply because I don't like the way they drive. That 57 reg car, an S40 D5 only lasted a few months - I was so disappointed, and went back to a '97 S70 T5. All the cars I have enjoyed driving have been pre 2000, so I suppose I'm a bit of a dinosaur! If I won the lottery I wouldn't be buying a new Bentley Continental, I'd be buying a 1960s/1970s classic.

Currently own the '97 S70 T5 and have a '96 850R on the way from Japan - which will be my long term keeper and possibly the last car I'll buy - unless I win the lottery

Picked up my first Volvo in September last year; MY2020 XC60 d4 r-design in osmium grey.

Shortly thereafter I turned 42.

Had lusted after an XC60 for years, so good to finally have one. First Volvo in the family and loving it so far.

I am 50. And just about to collect my first Volvo. A V40 D2 SE Lux nav with some additional extras.
Mainly been a Skoda owner for well over ten years. Currently have a 2010 vRS TDi Octavia.
