    Mid life crisis......

    I officially have it.

    I am picking up an Alfa red Alfa with twin exhaust pipes and a stinkingly fast engine (175 horses) on Saturday.

    To do my mid life crisis properly, what else do I need to do?

      Sign up with a reputable breakdown firm. And quickly.

          Get a motorbike.

          Get lots of lycra to wear and train for a triathlon/marathon/extra long cycle race. (Options are listed in order of how unfit you are.)

              Definitely grab a motorbike. I appreciate the effort with the car, but I swapped my 220Bbhp vRS for a 3.0L V6 last week so I think you're gonna have to do better.

                    - Divorce the wife and run behind hookers.
                    - Get a couple of tattoes
                    - Wear bling
                    - Take holidays in Majorca, Mallorca, Lanzarote
                    - Get laid on holidays
                    - After you get bored of the above, grow a beard, buy a Volvo estate (Pre 2000 model) and tow a caravan to cornwall.
                    - Dont forget to dye your beard white.
