End of mid life crisis?
I have now had my F a little over six years, and my TF five years. It was said then that I was having a mid life crisis; so now as I approach 60 can I therefore assume the mid life crisis is over?
If that is the case then obviously the next stage is the end of life crisis,.....its a bit glum, but I have requested to my family that when I die I am to be put into my F and crushed into a cubic metre block with my buttocks showing and a rose or two to be inserted, and placed into the centre of the garden.
Don't know or care how the scrapyards going to sort that, but I think its a great idea! :spank:

Oh my , did that make me laugh ! It reminded me a bit of a Billy Connoly joke that the big yin told on The Parkinson show . Hopefully you won't be calling on the breakers yard for a few years yet .

My kids will be fighting over my F and my T16 maestro, they'd ignore me if I requested the same.

I bought my first mgf when I was the wrong side of 60 some 7 years ago. I was asked many times if I was having a mid- life crisis. I took it as a great compliment :woohoo: :woohoo: I now have an f and a tf. My younger brother (who will be sixty in march ) has two F s. Eck and Wally. Three of the four were purchased out of a scrap yard. I've checked the boots this morning in case there are any former owners inside. !!!!

Keymaster...I can categorically state that playing with MG's extends the mid-life crisis indefinitely, I have A TF160 and a V8 B roadster, (which I have had since the commencement of my mid-life crisis nearly 20 years ago).

Ah yes I remember that John, but the Big Yin only wanted to park his bike.

Looks like I will be applying for an extension to my mid life crisis then!

It´s not a mid life crisis. I am 70, and a proud owner of an MGF Trophy.
I bought my first MG in 1967 just before I was 18. An MG TF 1954.
I have been through Austin-Healey, Triumph, Jaguar, Allard (!) and many more.
It is a life time crisis.
The only problem is that as you age, the cars become faster than you.

could it be that all the marketing specialists are wrong and we elderly gentlemen don't want SUVs in real life but a F/TF is the one and only senior carrier? :drive:
