I'm 75 years old (03/04/1936) and still driving my M5 as though I were, oh I don't know, 25? I've have been a board member since '00. I have logged over 145,000 miles on my car driving about 2-250 miles every since weekend since buying it in '00. My posts are infrequent. I do however, visit the board for tech help when I need it (which isn't often) and feel a strong bond the with the members and it's founder and guiding light, Gustav. i attach a photo taken yesterday in the parking lot of a staples here in Astoria, NY. Hello to everyone and keep in mind, there is still a lot of driving left in everyone on the board.

Wow, it's great to hear you still harbor the same enthusiasm for driving your Beast 11 years later.

Your daily physical therapy of your left leg probably keeps you in good shape!! I hope you get a chance to extend your right leg as far from time to time,.

Glad to hear you have had many enjoyable years and miles in your car.

Enjoy and keep the Beast in good shape, it will hopefully treat you well for many more years to come.

As they say, age is all in your head!

Congrats! That is where I still hope to be when I am 75...though by that time I am sure there will not be enough petrol to keep the M5 going haha!
