Went to the Sherborne car show today, great day and lovely weather but my other half said to me (I hadn't really noticed) have you noticed all the car owners seem to be around my age (66). I bought my first (of 6) TVR's when I was in my early 40's, so it got me thinking is the hobby dying with guys (not sure hobby is the right word as in my case a life long passion) thinking of cars as just transport (my eldest buys a car like any "white" good).

I have to say that the TVR enclosure (I've since gone to the dark side with a 911) had a good number of very nice cars but the owners didn't seem to want to chat frown.
