How old are us w203 owners

I was creeping on the w209 and w204 forums tonight and saw they each had a thread of members posting how old they are. I though it would be cool to get one going on the w203 section.

Physically, I just turned 46 last month.

Mentally, though, I'm still in high school, I will readily admit.

I am 50 and pleasantly surprised there are so many other members in their 40's at MB World. Good to see so many W203 owners in their 20's or younger also.
My car was actually bought and still owned by my mother who is 74 now and prefers to drive her 2010 Toyota Yaris instead.

Right there with you, 45, but mentally still in college (sorry, hated high school), with someone else paying for my gas and insurance -- and all my points!
