    Go for it, I say. If I'm still walking around at 100, I'll do what I damn well please with my money! :D

    He looks pretty sprightly for a century; I've seen guys in their sixties that struggle more to sit in behind the wheel of their car.

    He seems more confident on the road than a lot of 45 year old drivers here appear to be...

    Jaysus fair play to him! He doesn't even look 100, more like 80.

    He can get into the car more gracefully than me anyway and I'm a quarter of his age:D

    Looks well able to drive too

    fair play indeed:D, I know a few old people 20 years younger than him who cant handle a car at all but he seems pretty capable!

    100 years old, impressive, he really is in good shape for that age...
    I would have thought he would have buy an automatic though...

    Yeah defo would've expected an automatic as well.

    Fair play to him!


    Although, from 0:12 to 0:17 in that video is probably the funniest thing I've seen in ages.

    *Camera's are rolling... crap... I'd better start pulling levers and twisting things!*
