Was just wondering what the average age of coupe owners within this club are? Haven't seen a coupe YET to be driven by a 18 year old chav. Would have thought the age band would be widening now as prices have dropped to affordable ranges,even insurance was ok at 23 for me \:D

well im 20 "sweetride" and ive got a coupe \:\) but ive also gt my own flooring business i started 1 1/2 yrs ago so i needed to trade my fiesta turbo for a more suitable car for when i go to customers houses to give estimates as little red fiesta turbo burbling away outside a customers house doesnt give off the right impression. . . .. . where as the coop is bit more of a mans car \:D and much more comftable to drive etc!

The problem with trying to work out an average age for coupé owners is when Came2dance posts his age up! \:D

Just put me down as old °\(

25 here, was 23 when i entered into the weird and wonderful world of coupe ownership. It was also my very first car! Having driven my mother's 1litre Suzuki Swift for the 5 years previous to that.

Happy Birthday Blue20vt

I was 28 when I got my 16v n/a. It's been sold over a year now.

However, I'm 31 now and within a month or so of getting my 1st 20VT! Sweeeeeet...
