Well I too am a granfather of two, and have, over 40 years of exclusive Fiat ownership, had quite a few Fiats, all with twin cams except my current Grande Punto and my 1988 Bertone X/19 which I sold when I purchased my Coupe.
I turned 60 last October and still enjoy my sport, including Ocean Racing, and off to Noumea next June competing in the Brisbane-Noumea Race.
Last Thursday, I stood down from President of the Fiat Car Club of Queensland at the AGM as being the longest serving President in the Club's 47 year history.

Plenty of grandads on here.Although now i have read the posts above i feel like a young whippersnapper of a grandad.These Fiats do seem to get in the blood though.

I'm only a grandfather of one (though she is of *course* the best grand-daughter in the world, goes without saying, really) and I've had the same coupe for sixteen years.
Though I could give it up anytime, right? I'm not actually *addicted*? Although he doesn't say so, I can vouch for the fact Neil is well old. ![tongue tongue](/forum/images/graemlins/default/tongue.gif)

4 grandchildren and two on the way.
Have owned Italian cars for some years.... really enjoying my "new to Canada" coupe.
Cars that are not sold here (like the Coupe) must be 15 years old before being eligible for importation.... so I have one of the first legal Canadian coupes.

You lot have made me jealous. My elder kids are now 26, 23, 19 and 18 in feb. Youngest are 10, 3 and 2. No grandkids in sight. One of the reasons why we have the 3 and 2 year olds
