too true

just be thankful you hadn't bought it off him yet! Glad to see you can laugh about it though

looks sweet bud, well impressed

If your car tax runs out whilst it's off road don't forget to get a SORN

I've only been pulled twice so far: 1st 'cause I was leaving a bar at 11pm (I worked there) and they were having a crackdown on drink drivers, so I wasn't bothered 2nd 'cause I only had 1 out of 3 rear brake lights working, he just told me to get it fixed ASAP

Is it not to do with people assuming it's safer in the middle lane? As in there's a bigger margin for error? Still does my nut in though

had about 15 'proper' lessons, but i failed my test first time, totally my fault. I wasn't thinking straight, got onto a dual-carriageway and assumed 70 mph speed limit. it was 50 mph. Quite a few of my friends did the same thing :s

S/he clearly knew exactly what s/he was doing. How no-one crashed I have no idea

I don't think it really matters, after all, learners are allowed to drive on dual carriageways (with supervision, of course) and motorways are, essentially, just dual carriageways with an extra lane. I never had a problem with driving on motorways after I passed my test

Nah don't really bother, fabia's are common as muck so there's no point

Fair point, I see where you're coming from now :sad2:

I only mean that it's a good idea for the first couple of years, once the premiums plateau then it's not necessary anymore

I think it's a great idea! I only passed my test a couple of years ago and 'cause I'm young, therefore, I'm a bad driver, which I'm not. For my first year, on a 1L 1999 Nissan Micra I paid about £3000 for a years insurance!! Anything that will help young, genuinely good drivers lower their...

haha my bad!! :toung:

Try taking out all the stuff you don't need. It'll speed up you're acceleration and increase MPG so it's win/win!! :D:D
