Probably not a big deal for all you TR4 and prior owners but, my TR4A turns 60 tomorrow. The build date according to the BMHT Certificate was November 4th, 1965. Just didn't want the date to pass with no mention. And the car has been a part of my life for 25 of those year, purchased on July 1, 2000.

My "6" will turn 53 the 16th. of November. Easy to remember because it is the day before MY birthday. When this was new, I really wanted one, but with a new wife and a low paying job, that was not going to happen in the fall of 72'. ...J.D.

Mine turned 60 earlier this year, and I did mark the date. It's delightful to imagine it 60 years ago, sparkling in a dealer's showroom, with no one expecting it still to be on the streets today.
 
Mine 3’s old enough for Medicar.
 
I appreciate all your comments gents! Glad to hear I am not the only one silly enough to mark the date.

"Medicar" - I see what you did there, that's great. My initial reaction was a typo...haha
