As a new owner this year I am curious to know just who in the club is the owner with most years under their belt? Also youngest owner? It matters not a jot of course either way, although being at the older end lowers insurance I suppose. Purchased my coupe In July 2019 at age 68.

My wife bought hers new in 1997 and still has the car. She was 34 at the time. I bought mine in 2014 and was 47 years young.

Bought mine for about £1000 off ebay in October 2004. It was a 16v N/A and wouldn't start, but that was resolved fairly quickly (even Barnacle came over to try and help I seem to remember) after finding out the distributor arm was 180 degrees out. Turbo engine removed from the Tipo and put into the coupe and still have it 15 years later and with a little more power than standard I was 25 when I bought the car and now 40

I bought 'Snoopy' 15 years ago back in the summer of 2004 at 23 years of age. Although she was nearly six years old at the time, I like the fact she was first registered within a couple of weeks of me passing my driving test

Striking to me is the age spread of owners and the longevity of ownership, remarkable. But then again having found out for myself just how good the coupe is, perhaps not so remarkable!

I bought 'Marvin' in April 2001 when he was under 2 years old and I was 39. I have a photo of us the day I collected him from Wimbledon Carriage Company. I also have a photo from earlier this year, the day Marvin clocked up 80,000 miles. I'm now 58, Marvin's worn better than me in 18 years! Great to see new and seasoned owners of all ages who love our coupes
