Default Ages of 75 owners

Since getting my car, a lot of people seem surprised that I own a 75 and that I'm just 20. Some people seem to perceive 75s as an older person's car, so what ages are owners on here?

Ages is irrelevant. Taste is timeless.

Now don't go believing all those tales, I've got an R75 And I'm not old,

Just a very young 74 that's all.

I was 29 when I bought mine. Just shows you know a good deal when you see it.

Indeed. I'm 25, and there are a few of us 'youngsters' on here. I first wanted one when I was 14, so age indeed is second to taste.

There is the saying 'older and wiser', maybe that applies to many 75 owners? If wisdom and taste go together.

I'm sure there's an eighteen year old with a 75 on here or the other side.
