2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Baltic Blue

You are only as old as you feel....

The DVLA have written to me today to tell me that in the next 90 days my driving licence expires when I reach 70.
Then I see 2012 Vogue SE’s going for peanuts...

I don’t feel ready for the scrap heap and B.B. still feels like a new car to me.
Plenty of life left in both of us ( hopefully they will renew my licence )

And then they make you renew it every three years.
I think they are just checking that you can still read the forms and that dementia hasn't set in.

Alistair, but in truth, I hang my head in shame, because I have missed my October 6 monthly oil change .
Daughters wedding and annual holiday kept me from getting it done, but first dry day opportunity and I will be back on schedule.
Cheers to all.

No problem you'll get it ....My dad's 75 and he is still driving without a problem. His Freelander is in use every day. Apparently for driving my mum round the bend, but that's another story! Tony
