A senior citizen bought a brand new BMW and drove it out of the salesroom. |

A few years ago I saw an elderly chap driving a very powerful convertible Porsche. He had obviously been through his mid-life crisis and was enjoying spending the grandchildren's inheritance. |

Well, I'm a well-looked after, but clapped out, old girl who drove our well-looked after, but clapped out, 15-year old BMW Estate over to my allotment this morning. It contained a 10-year old clapped-out wheelbarrow and a few clapped-out tools. |

Next door neighbour (72) has just swapped his Renault Clio for a Lamborghini. Took it down to West Wales today for its first spin and on the way back phoned his wife from Sarn Services. |

Errol. Think this one might be an Aventidor. Foreign anyway, and Renault Clio looked quite nice. |
