ye granthams quite a good place to take it i think as long as you know the roads! some of the roads can be quite confusing!

1 minor! git. I had 3 on my car test (2 hesitation, 1 control on reverse round a corner "but it's nothing to worry about" - examiner) and 2 on my bike test (wobbled at traffic lights and put my right foot down, and also missed one shoulder check before turning right into a side street).

Congrats! You got a car already or are you building your first ride?

thanks alot paul,

Im going to be driving the parents fiesta round for a bit (school and work) but will be taking my bike test aswell in the near future and hopefully getting a 400.

Then eventually will be driving the car that im building aswell

smart@rse!

No, actually: congratulations. I failed 2 tests when I was 17 then left it until my final year at uni before deciding I really ought to get it done. It was quite "interesting" going for driving lessons along the Embankment, Fleet Street, Westimnister, etc. in London! Made the test itself (in Wimbledon) a doddle.

Well done, and drive safely.

Well done but you wouldn't have passed the English exam.

Well done that man! What a marvellous feeling (I have a good memory!!).
Just be warned that passing the test is a minor issue compared with learning to actually drive.
