In 20 years....... ?

Despite being older and having less hair do you think the sort after cars will be the Focus RS and RS500's like the Cossies are now ? Or will we all be driving German and Japanese cars as Ford never really replaced the Cossie ?

The facts are that very very very few people who are petrolheads in their 20/30/40's are still interested at 60. Look at this site only 3 of us aged over 65 all the others that were going to be life long petrolheads are no longer here. Even i cant imagine owning a modified car at 70 so i realise my petrolhead days are almost over maybe as soon as next year.
