Not really a "Poll", more like a "Survey". Still an interesting idea.

42!

5 year increments would have been better!

I wouldn't be so close to the 50's bracket then 😂

Dear God, that gives a positive indication of their target group.

Perhaps they should dispense with the RT moniker and just rename it the BMW Sagawagen?

Amazing result. May say more about age groups that still use forums like this. My 24 year old son doesn't, I think he gets most of this type of info on something called Reddit ...
