How Old Is Your Car In People Years?

Heard this on the radio the other day. Take your mileage and divide by the year of manufacture.

Mime is 125k and 2007 equating to 62 years old!

My focus is 27.3 years old. Lol

I propose a new game on this, see who can recognise the cars actual full year (to no decimal points) with a genuine mileage and year lol. Alex and russ are on track for this one lol as I presume Chris and I both rounded generally lol

Apparently the the Volvo is 66 years old and the Fiesta is 45. The Focus is 93.5 years old, and it is definitely showing its "age".

Mine is apparently 6.15 years old - about 12400 miles / 2014. I don't think this is a very good indication of a car's "age" though, for example you could have a car that was built in 1980 and had been sat in a shed for most of the time with the same mileage as my car, probably made of rust but only 6.26 years old lol.
