I suspect age limits will go the same way in the EU as they have done in the US. Almost no US regional airlines have max age limits.
If you can pass the class 1 and check rides, that is all they want, so I'm not surprised BA list 58!
I've only just returned to fixed wing flying and just started to look around for non type rated P2 jobs (I have an FAA ATP and ADX ticket), so if anyone knows of anything then please PM me.
