i was just browsing around and stumbled on it, was totally shocked because i loved Mk1's and 2's

http://paultan.org/archives/2007/03/03/vol...-citigolf-18ir/ yes thats right, in South africa they never stopped production of Mk1's, they reused the chassis and renamed it the citigolf

I was surprised to find that everyone at work rang up to ask how i got on, i didn't think they would even be bothered one of the lads smashed his Mk5 Golf up the same day he fitted Adjustable Coilovers and almost wrote it off lol More lessons are getting booked in to ready myself for the 19th, im still gonna do a load of lessons to stay at the standard i was for my test, better to have more than enough than a few here and there just because i did ok

i used to go at weekend days when it was quiet, i didnt know they had jap car nights let alone car nights at all anymore? how often are they there? and Idrees, put it forward to the 22nd Nov because my test is on the 19th

i thought the brackets weren't needed, wasn't there a discussion about it before?

I've also made one that way before, we used to aim at sides of warehouses

Geos has snapped off partly before so its not uncommon

that is one rather odd selection lol. one minute you get respect, then the next song selection you lose it all then gain respect again rofl

thing is, ive even seen people do the same as me on that roundabout because it is a shit one. i asked my brother about it and he cant even remember if it has road markings and he drives up and down the country every day! ive never said im better than anyone on the roads, safer yes because all learners are (which you gotta admit because as a learner your not being taught to drive, your being taught how to drive safe and pass), a better driver is someone who knows how to adapt like Asad mentioned

Quite the opposite mate, ive had other learners nearly bumping into me because they have been indesicive and gone too slow. Almost every lesson i get my instructor shouting at OTHER people. i also said ive BEEN being gas heavy (not i AM), which isn't a bad thing because i never go over the limit, im not a learner who sits and does 20-25mph in a 30 limit, i'll always do 28/29 and get myself in and out of junctions straight away i.e not block them up at 3mph because thats how accidents do happen. With regards to the roundabout, i changed gear to 2nd, looked in all 3 mirrors, and was doing early

ive put nearly £1000 into trying to pass my test, a 1 hour lesson is £22 and ive had near the 40 hour reccomended amount of time which is about £800+ right there, plus the amount ive spent putting petrol in my own car to go out in and money spent to book theory test and now 2 tests (which is £56 a pop, so £112). I've also lost 2 days worth of pay and will lose a 3rd days. People like to laugh at learners but the way i've learnt to drive ive been gas heavy and taking risks to get out of junctions quick. I made this thread to show how you can be punished

i mean, if people want to mock, let them. When did you last hear people dieing with a learner at the wheel?

its ok, lets face it, the real cunts are the people who have their licenses, us lot who are learning are all better drivers IMO

im not sure, i hope i do get him actually because that way he knows he's ripped me off once already anyway and will get a big shock when i kick off if he fails me again alot of people don't realise when they see me that i have a very short temper hehe. when i lost my last job, i smashed the fuck out of my room, so yeah, i don't take failure well lol

a WISH list isn't the same as a rumour mate.

I've explained to my dad what happened and he totally agreed with me and my instructor, you shouldn't be punished for something like that because its pure inexperience, i can drive safer than the popemobile chaffeur, but not knowing where anything is really fucks you. How is a learner who ISN'T allowed on the roads going to know where those roads are? my dad said i will have to point him out when i see him lmao

Well i failed with only 1 major fault. I was worried i was gonna fail on 3 point turn and reverse but i got them PERFECT. yes perfect with no faults. i got 3 minors for hesitation and speed (about 11 minors in all) My instructor told me afterwards i got one of the strictest testers and i did well to impress with my maneuvores. Now for the bad part, i got to a roundabout which i didnt know much about and he said 2nd exit left, so naturally i kept in the left lane and dropped into second because there was a car going out in front of me, so by the time i'd checked my mirrors i musn't of seen t

They got the inspiration from you mate.

i was planning on building an Install this weekend but if you put pics up and a price i might buy it

try motor spares shops, they might want someone part time on the counter or something, good place to learn.

this was most recent (last night) but wasn't something i ate but still. Optrex eye bath (for infected, sore eyes etc) i did both eyes for 30 seconds, looked at bottle afterwards, and it says "dispose after 3 months of opening" first opened it...last november... so if my typing seems off in a few days, its because im starting to turn blind

I'm addicted to UKSC

I take my hat off to people who tune Micras because at the end of the day, they are jap, but when they do stuff like this to em, its not worth it. Asad, have you seen a red Micra kicking about anywhere with silver/chrome wheels?

mine has 16" wheels, they are crap BK ones, but you get the idea from looking at it (it isn't lowered YET either)

he means torque, which you said was WRC
