The age demographic of "young" I would think to be around 30 for this particular vehicle. I personally am just a month past 32 at this point (31 when ordered), then again I am rather fiscally responsible as I bought my first house at 23. But when I drive around the local University campus, there are college aged kids with $70k GT-Rs and modded M3s. People in this age group run the entire spectrum of monetary worth. Also, never underestimate the power of the D.I.N.K. (Dual Income, No Kids) households.

Hmm, I fancy that the 'young' in America have far more disposable income than the same university graduates in the UK, who will leave Uni. with debts in the region of £12k - £24k. at age 23 -34, so by the time they are in their 30's, will not have significantly reduced them, jobs being as difficult as they are to get. Their first priority will be house, family, and general living expenses, not a toy car, so I ask again, who are these 'young' buyers that Morgan are talking about, at least in the UK?

I would like to assume that there are a few who are lucky enough to do so well for themselves fresh out of school and that the people I see with flashy sports cars on a campus (known for burning couches and riots over sporting events) have been blessed with the 'bling' via the parents. As, most of the guys and gals that I went to college with all came out with debt. Although my priority went job, house, car, girl, car, 3 wheeler...

At last, after a lot of problems with papers from MMC mine was registered yesterday so I will pick it up at the dealer today. Perfect ride to our Midsummer Party. I have already driven it 1 000 km on dealer plates to sort it out. We will leave for England in it on Wednesday next week. See you at the Sprint or at Shelsley Walsh. __________________________________ Stig
