Seeing the recent 914 event photos seems like the collective 'we' average is in the 50's-60's.

Where are the youngins?

I use the hot chicks thread level on front page as a basis.

That being said, I like the fact that there is a Hot Woman thread.

57 - Just old enough to afford to buy a POS used 914 in my early 20s and manage to hang on to one until now when I can (almost) afford to fix it up the way I always imagined.

I am 55. Held onto 2 of them for over 30 years now.

BTW.. the 21 year old inside of me looks in the mirror every morning and shouts "What the F**K ?!?!?!"

too old unfortunately, and I was not really old enough to afford a new 914 even in 1976. Almost 67 later this month.

51 and living on borrowed time.

Bought my 1st 914 when I was 20 and proceeded to convince all my friends that I would be dead by 30 by driving them around corners in the 914 at speeds that seemed insane to those unfamiliar with 914 handling capabilities.

I’m still here. biggrin.gif

I started with 914 8 yrs ago when I’m 42. So I’m with 914 50th anniversary. Hhhmmm I should find 1969 built 914.

will be 73 next month. This will be my last season with the car. I will be turning over the car to my son, he's a firefighter . I know the car will be in good hands he will be an excellent caretaker for the car.

Great question agree.gif

I have a measurement on my garage wall showing my age.
0" inches at the floor to a height of 100" inches. stirthepot.gif
Each year on my birthday I mark off inches on the scale.
I want to live to 100 years old, so I only have 18 inches to live. w00t.gif

73 is coming up. Recently sold my last Ducati, believe me I'll miss it as it was the real deal for acceleration. My 75 is back date with a 3.2 in it.

Old enough to order from senior menu and fortunate enough to use my military discount at Home Depot and Lowes.

Oh...and love my 79 cent senior coffee every morning.

Younger than your average Triumph, MG, Jensen, Healey and Lotus owner.

About the same as the average Fiat and Alfa owner however.

I'll be 40 next month. I've been around these cars my whole life. My first car was a 73 2.0. My current 73 2.0 I've had for almost 20 yrs now and bought it from the second owner. My 74 2.0 was my Dads car, and has been in the family since 85.
