Exiting a shop earlier, a Renault Clio 197 is lovely red pulls up.

Out steps a little old woman, hunched over and well into her 80's.

Impressive enough...

I said, 'thats a fast car'

She said, 'Yes 200 horse power'

Awesome.


About 8 years ago in Morrisons car park, a similar aged woman cruised past in an M3.

Whats the best car you've seen a 70years plus woman driving?

1960's 427 AC Cobra!

Mate of mine used to go over to the Lakes every year and take it for a blat for her, then take it to be MOT'ed.

He had worked with her husband and promised to look after the pair of them.

Late aged women in a P1 scooby. The best model in my eyes.

My mum in an XR3i but that was about 20 years ago!!

I don't know if she was as old as that, but I suspect so, driving a 1920s bently last year (My parent wedding anniverary dinner at a hotel and the bently club turned up, which was fun!)

Thats not a granny!!

Definition of a granny 'hunched over, arthritic, rheumatic, carries large stock of biscuits and smells of lavender, and a bit of wee'

It is not inconceivable for a granny to be 32, younger if illegal acts happened with the under aged


Ninehigh - 21/6/13 at 08:10 PM

Yeah but surely a 32 year old granny is more likely to be on Jeremy Kyle than an Evo

If you think she is 32 there is something very wrong!
