Paid Members Kookoocachu Posted May 31, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted May 31, 2013 Passed  Nice one.  What marks did you get? Think I passed my theory by one mark. 47/50 for the questions and 48 out of a possible 75 for hazard perception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfMetal Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 well done. You looking to book your proper test now? My advice would be to try and get a mid-week slot if you can, but obviously it depends what your local area is like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majik Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Just got back from my test and I PASSED!  This means so much to me, it really does  Congrats! Don't listen to anyone that tells you to buy a crap car. Buy something nice that you'll love, clean and look after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolann Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I hate the idea of having to drive - and am a firm believer in the wonder of public transport. Â We are getting ready to move to Oz next year and the only downside is having to learn to drive. I really dont want to but its an absolute necessity. Â I had one lesson so far - lovely instructor - orange cauderoy trousers. Will probably have another dozen and am now saving up to just do a one week intensive thing to get it out of the way.

Philo_Vance Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Kook, just seen your post- Congrats. Also, I'm going to echo the advice given to me in here- DRIVE, as much as you can. I passed about 2 months ago, but until this morning I hadn't driven my car for 3 weeks and my confidence was shot to pieces. It's so important to drive every day if you can!

patiirc Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Just got back from my test and I PASSED!  This means so much to me, it really does  Congrats! Don't listen to anyone that tells you to buy a crap car. Buy something nice that you'll love, clean and look after.  Gotta echo this, spend a little more ( assuming will need some motability style adapts?) and have something that isnt a bit of junk. My first car was a V reg Metro with a paper Mache floor! Never again!  PS Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philo_Vance Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Just drove the missus home for the first time, it's about a half hour drive through the country, quite a pleasant little trip. Except that the road she lives on is an absolute bastard to get out of again. T junction, on a steep uphill, with no visibility either way, on the busiest road in the town. She can get the bloody bus in future, I was sitting there for minutes waiting to get out. Â Also, not driving for a while has resulted in completely losing the ability to park, it seems.

When I had to stop my lessons for 4 months I came back and could actually park better than before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philo_Vance Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 I think I'm just having a bad day, seem completely unable to get it straight. Anyone looking out of a window must have had a right old laugh watching. I'm probably going viral on youtube even now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
