What did you do today?

You have balls of steel!

Too right! The handbrake is getting some hammer. I'm pleased it works good.

Ooh fuck. I'm way more nervous than I should be. Only £40 to add my mother, son and step son on the insurance. I wonder if I could get him covered on the van?

It'd make sense. If you end up working more than a couple of hours one day he can drive you back whilst you recover.

I only work a couple of hours because I can't afford to get buy on any less.

Done 15 miles and aged 15 years. I have a new found respect for driving instructors.

My mother had one of those, in yellow. Wasn't bad. Very competent but mind numbingly dull to drive.

Boot fills with water if you open the hatch in the rain and the rear lights are stupidly wide meaning the hatch is narrow (ofc dumbass regs mean the primary lights cannot be in the boot without secondaries).

Fairly easy to pilot despite it feeling much longer at the front than it is.

I loved teaching my daughter to drive. She was getting lessons once a week, but we would take the Megane out for 6/7 hours a week.
Used to just drive about until I found a nice country pub, stop for half an hour, then drive home. Only one mishap was when she hit the garden wall at about 5mph. Car was fine, but it cost me £700 to rebuild the wall!
Oh, and she wrote of 2 cars in the first 2 months of driving after passing her test. That was £11k in 2 months including her insurance!

You were driving it all wrong.

This opinion of a lack of dynamism is spurred from having been spoiled by driving small Italian vehicles.

The Cinq had a lot more driving character than the 107, even though as a machine the Pug outshone it in nearly every aspect.

Reminds me of sodding years ago with a fit wee lass I knew was learning to drive. For some reason her parents trusted me, aged about 21, to supervise but not her bf. So I got taken to the pub several nights a week and there's more room in a Ka than you'd think

She repaid you handsomely, then?
