All good fun, Pete! But how many motoring journals rate goodness what above the Macan?
Oh, and I'm going on 69 and our Victorian house is minimalist on the inside and contains contemporary and classic design pieces from Vitra, Eames, Ibride, Ruark, Artemide, Foscarini...
I do share much of your taste in classic design. I keep promising myself an Eames Lounge Chair when I retire! Our house is a very contemporary take on a stone country "barn" with lots of glass and fairly open plan. Furniture is a mix of German and Scandi design, with a bit of modern French and English thrown in!
I don't take much notice of most popular motoring press, but I thought it was interesting what the "trendy young" non-motoring press thinks of Tesla. Most 20 and 30 somethings I know are certainly impressed and I like to think I've still got a young mind (my wife would probably say childish!).
I think the age profile is an interesting point and one that points, perhaps, to where this age group is coming from - not from a petrolhead perspective but just a pragmatic future transport viewpoint.
The house sounds nice - and fun! We've always yearned for a Huf House or similar - literally from years 30 ago before barely anyone had heard of them. But sadly circumstances conspired to put them, and many other things like a 911, out of reach.
And Eames Lounge Chairs are sublime and, as Mrs D and I can confirm, well worth the wait. #2 should be here next week.
For your future reference try Stephen Baldwin at Material Life. Always very competitive on price - if you ask!
