I have to say my '70 Spit is older than me.  Being born in '77 I'd have to
buy a late Spit or TR7/8 to have one newer than me.  Maybe it's time to
pick up a nice TR8 convertible...

There's a good 'survey'-type question - how many listers ARE younger than
their cars? I have a 1958 TR3A, and I was born in 1960. I bought my 1976
TR6
with my own money when I turned 19, as I had been working for a
(unionized)
A&P store since before I was 16. I knew what I wanted, even then! (Of
course, if I had known then what I know today, I probably could've bought
an
early-series TR6 with all options (o/d, 3 tops, etc) for less, or (perish
the thought) some other then-undesirable, now valuable classic. Still, I
don't regret it a bit! Cheers, (& irish beers!) - JD
