finally
 

Finally I've passed my driving test. With only 3 minors i'd say thats not too bad. Well insurance will be sky high so I might not get a car just yet.

Re: finally
 

thx

I failled my first test on 5th December, on a technical matter called "speeding", I went 45 on a 40. this was my second

Re: finally
 

LOL you really did deserve to fail that time :D :D. Keeping to the speed limit must be the easiest part of the test.

Re: finally
 

Well done on that kash - passing on your second. I know i took more than that. Never got done for speeding though.

Re: finally
 

Congratulations! I passed my test in 1969 and my instructor at the time said that I could start learning to drive now, I wondered what he meant, now 38 years later I know exactly what he meant, in fact I am still learning. Well Done and good luck!!

Re: finally

Re: finally
 

Well Done Kash

Re: finally
 

passed last year and insurance was pretty high i think it was 880 fully comp but teh second year its dropped by nearly 300 quid

do the pass plus it gets even more discount on your first year

tesco are good and after 1 year with them they gave me a bonus 1 year no claims so although only driving 1 year i have 2 years no claims discount

Re: finally
 

bloody hell thats cheap! what kinda car you got?

Re: finally
 

pegeot 206 1.4 petrol on a 52 plate 2 carefull owners and not commenting on current owner as i want to sell it soon lol :D

Re: finally
 

oh thats why then. small engine etc you got cheap tax too?

Re: finally
 

actualy for teh 2 liter engine it would have only been an extra 40 quid on my insurance and that was last years quote , petrol prices was why i got 1.4

Re: finally
 

but dont they reckon diesel works out cheaper in the long run?? even though petrol is cheaper

Re: finally
 

And the fact that you wanted to live long enough to insure it for the next year :D :D :D

Re: finally
 

only if you do a lot of motorway travel realy

my next car ime gonna try and get one that runs on gas as well coz thats realy cheap

Congrats kash!!!

As others say, NOW you start to learn to drive. The test is only to make sure your safe to be out there, not that you are a good driver.

Don't be afraid to ask, make sure you take the opportunity to learn. Most bikers will often sit there after the ride and think about the ride and where they were off line/too fast/too slow/ a little careless etc. if you are critical with your own driving it WILL make you a far better driver in a very short period of time.

so get out ther and practice!!!

Re: finally
