Well done Max, no doubt you'll be a safer driver than the rest of us!
I can just about remember passing my car and bike tests, on both I thought I had failed but survived unscathed.
Best advice I had was to drive as much as you can to build your confidence.

Thanks you guys. It is great fun. I'm very conscious of the thin line i walk though at the moment being a young driver, so i can honestly say i have not driven like a goon, as i'd rather like to keep hold of my licence :p I topped up the little 106 thismorning with £20, didn't make much difference to the level in the tank :/ It's nice not to have to ask for lifts now :) I'm guessing it won't be long before i get angry that the buggy isn't finished yet haha.

There are the aforementioned and then there is Radar (Pete) across the Pennines. Then the next nearest would be Alan probably? We feel a tad isolated up here :p Thanks you guys, It'll be great to get the exhaust done!

Well done Max, congratulations, just remember 2 things,

1. Everybody else on the road is a complete & utter moron & IS trying to kill you
2. You can't actually drive as well as you think you can

Remember both of those & you'll enjoy a long & happy driving life.

It's odd how many people say those things! I really have taken them on board. I had some moron woman in a people carrier try to drive out of a junction in front of me in a supermarket car park without even looking. So i correctly used my horn to let her know of my presence ;) I also live somewhere where tractors pulling out of gateways onto single track lanes is the norm so driving carefully is a survival skill. I understand that a crash in a peugeot 106 will not end well. I'm thinking of doing my pass plus too. You do some further things on car control which could be quite valuable.
Thanks again everyone :)
