Too old for what, pray tell? I have you beat by a few years, but as a wise man once said, it's not how old you are, but how old you feel. Does the Clubman make you feel younger than your years? You betcha.

As old as Methusalah in dog years - in my early 50s... What does "early" mean? Younger than mid 50s?

There's a thread like this on MINI2, for the whole board, and it's rather interesting.

My guess is that the Clubman tends to attract more over twenty-somethings.

I wonder if the Clubman skews older a little bit. I am 41 and my DH is turning 40 next week (or as he likes to call it, Thirty Ten).

Happy B-Day MINI Trekkie!

Looks like 27 is the youngest so far. Yes it does appear that the Clubman attacks a slightly "more experienced" driver. Lol
