markjodrell Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 My 17 year old daughter, Lauren, has just passed her driving test. Third time lucky.... The waiting was unbearable while she was gone with the instructor :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Congratulations to her! I was surprised I passed first time. I thought I'd racked up way too many minor faults to pass, but he only gave me about 6 in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 She'll be borowing the supe soon then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjodrell Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 Thanks guys She got 6 minor faults , I think they are allowed 15 and no majors. Such a relief shes passed, it was costing me a fortune. The supras out of bounds, besides she cant drive an auto so I think Ill keep it that way for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Just waiting for Edd to ask for pictures... Lol. True. Congrats to your daughter Mark. Especially as my best mate has taken his test multiple times at the age of 24 and hasn't got anywhere near passing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 but she passed, on manual, so auto shold be easy for her?!! Not at all! You try going from driving a manual for 6 years, or even a few months, into an Auto where you mistake the Brake pedal for the clutch on occasions jerking about all over the place for the first couple of weeks! Well that was me anyway........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjodrell Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 Not sure what car to get her, maybe a Kia or a Clio .Must be something small and cheap to insure. Insurance is a joke for "young uns" Its getting expensive for me , wifes got an Mx3, sons got a 1.6 306 , I have a Vectra and a Supra TT and now another on the way AAARRRRRGGGGGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjodrell Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Well done so how do those P plates look on the soop :D Actually I did ask her about P plates when I get her a car sorted out, but she wont hear of it. I think they are a good idea for a new driver, other motorists would give her a bit more space. BUT, kids today, they think they are Sooooo uncool, must admit , I would never of had them when I passed...(30 years ago) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 i didnt bother with P plates. but then my first car wasnt fast enough to be unsafe! haha Fiat Panda. I had 13 minor faults im not dangerous. Congrats to your daughter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt have P plates back then, wouldnt have had them if they were available mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
