Southwell 29-06-2009 01:11 PM

The biggest thing to watch is your speed, if an examiner catches you over you will fail instantly. O and to always watch your mirrors, but don't move your eyes, move your head. The test is piss. ;)

bodgit 29-06-2009 02:40 PM

I wrote off 2 cars in my first 18 months backended another and destroyed 3 gearboxes. The good old days all on my mums ins TG was right lol

If you're after a van try this as a starter before you upgrade to a t5. Total babe-magnet and you can sleep in it at races ;)

Apparently, I was going to hit the car in front after a parellel park even though the steering was on full lock and the car got in there fine.

My driving instructor just said he "gayed me up" so I failed :)

Minors are only a worry if you REPEAT them.
Multiple repeats of the same minor becomes a major and a fail.

ben 10-12-2009 01:52 PM

haha i got 3 for the same thing..

Corner entry speed :rolleyes:

mw02veg 10-12-2009 03:26 PM

ashleyb4 11-12-2009 04:36 PM

Cheers Guys

Grant what are we aiming for?

Had two driving experiances since my test drove my dad's volvo yesterday around the show ground and just reversed my nan's corsa up the drive as she cant reverse up our drive for some odd reason. Deafently preffered driving the though volvo.
