101-year-old drives Ford Mustang Mach-E – 90 years after first learning to drive in a Model T

Description

Born in 1920, Harold Baggott, had his first taste of getting behind the wheel of the Model T aged 10, driving the family’s milkman’s delivery float on a farm. He went on to get his license in 1936 (the first year they were introduced), and purchased his first car, a Ford 8 Popular in 1937 for £100 and a Ford Anglia the next year.Since then the family has owned 20 Fords privately, as well as Ford commercial vehicles in chassis form, converted into coaches for a fleet of 140 run by their travel and coach business.Mr Baggott was reminded of his Model T experiences with rides in a 1915 model from Ford’s heritage collection, before moving bang up to date and behind the Mustang Mach-E’s steering wheel.Driving 15-year-old Felix, who has ambitions to be a racing driver, and his 12-year-old brother Charlie, three miles from Beaulieu to former shipbuilding village Bucklers Hard, Mr Baggott was struck by the quietness of electric motoring.

  • Is This 101-Year-Old Man the World’s Fittest Grandfather?

    This fitness enthusiast is not your average senior citizen. Yang Maolin says that regular exercise is the secret to his age. How old is he exactly? Actually, he's 101 years old. Yang lived all his life in the countryside until he left three years ago after his wife died. He moved to China's Xi'an to live with his children, but never stopped exercising. The 101-year old has become very popular in his new home town, where many locals recognize him at Revolution Park.
