Huge congrats mate - far more important than any car, for sure.

congrats ginger! hope all the planning is going well, there are a few more taking the plunge this year round here.

my mrs loves the rocco so much so that when i gave the mk6 gti for a week she handed me the keys back after a few days and asked for the rocco back immediately

Letting the girly drive

Letting a new-to-the-road drive a Scirocco
It is by far the worst car I have driven when it comes to view out the windows
You cant see where the hood stops, its unusually wide for its size and the rear view is a joke.

But boy do I love the driving

Well i've been driving for about 2.5 years and i ordered my own, don't know how her insurance is so cheap??

- Also, I bet you're quite young as well too?

Trix, if the time comes and you really loved them enough, you'd trust them... right?

Oh, youvebinaced, have you tried putting your parents on your insurance as named drivers? I reduced my premium by about £100 (from £600) And they don't even know they've been named

When I asked the insurance company they said it was reduced due to a perceived reduction in risk. The £20 is the fee to add the driver. Apparently having two people on the policy, especially a female, suggests that you will value the car more. If you crash it effects the other driver also so the thinking is more drivers = more care. Thats what they said anyway. I was not complaining!

She is still improving every time I have her out. Now she does not have an instructor doing the thinking for her she can plan her driving herself. As long as she does not plan a dent or a scratch I am happy.

your forgot kerbing in that list

Argh just did that myself today, so even the experienced are prone to it... :oops:

I am afraid I beat her to that ! After only 2000 miles as well. I was gutted. Still to get it fixed.
