Sounds like you'll do OK.
Congratulations!

Well done! I got my test on monday aswell

[MGZRod]

No doubt I'll do stupid newbie things but I've seen first hand what happens with young folk behind the wheel and know that metal can be fixed, bodies are slightly less easy to fix!

Sounds like you have a sensible approach to the start of your driving life.

Congrats, drive safe!

[DanGPR]

I know everyone says it, but this is coming from an 18yo pistonhead, with a crash.

Be careful, I miss my first car terribly . Congratulations too, mate.

Congrats! Be careful though, the next few weeks are probably the most risky of your driving life.

So, what first car ?

I read that when it was posted I've been Reading here for a while, too long probably!

I've got my (second) MG ZR 1.4

Perhaps now's a good time to read it again then... (I've read it a few times - I suppose we all relax into thinking 'it'll never happen to me')

You've already had an got rid of an MG ZR before you passed your test?

[MGZRod]

The first one ate it's own engine, so got a refund for it and spent ages looking for another good one.

It's v nice, 32800 ish miles and has only been unreliable once, or twice, maybe 3 times but that's irrelivant it's fixed now! *touches wood*

[BckFlash]

Well done Rod - give me a flash (of your lights....) if you see me on the road!
