    As for your first car and you can put up with the shape and looks of it then you can't go far wrong with the last gen Nissan Micra. Built like tanks and go quite nicely too. Failing that a Nissan Almera can be had for not alot of money these days and are just as bullet proof as the Micra

    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Quoted for TRUTH! The key for me in learning from the failures was.... make sure you get the nice examiner.

    No I really don't want to have to do all of it again, the test was worse than the day of GCSE results

    Re: Passed :D

    Well done on the pass! Best feeling in the world till I remembered I couldnt afford the insurance . Back to you another thing to do is look at what the cheapest insurance is for certain cars and look at them as their can sometimes be a fair bit of difference. Shame the scrappage scheme has probally taken many bargins away from the market to be crushed instead.

    Nice one! hope you can afford to run a car unlike me - passed in 2003 and have never owned or been insured on a car or even driven one (on the road) without my instructor sitting next to me. One day.

    That's like my friend. She passed 20 years ago, but has never had a car or driven by herself. She's taking refresher lessons now, and is struggling with her confidence.

    I have had 4 hours worth of refresher lessons about a year ago because I thought I had a job but I didn't in the end.

    Out of my £128.60 a fortnight I save about £20 if I'm VERY lucky if not then I spend it all. It's very difficult to buy tobacco and alcohol and pay my mum for food out of JSA.
