Hey everyone. I've just joined these forums - I've got a MK4 Dragon Green 1.3 CL which is my first car.

I'm 17 and I'm not that clued up on cars (always been more of a bike person) so no doubt I will be pestering you all for advice at some point!

Cheers!

Yep, my practical test is actually booked up for just under 4 weeks time. *craps pants*

Gorgeous wheels you got on your car by the way - what are they?

Hi, welcome etc etc

You're not alone being young and the polo being your first car, I'm 18 and my mk2 is my first car and there are plenty more

Good luck with your test - only advice I can give is to relax, just remind yourself that it's not the end of the world if you don't pass first time and you'll be fine.. I failed my first test (due to an over-pedantic examiner and a last minute change of local 'rules'...

), but passed with no problems at all second time round because I was so much more relaxed about it - and it only took me two weeks to get a retest as well, so it's not something to get anxious about

Well it's totally standard at the moment, but I've just ordered some clear indicators and side repeaters so as soon as they're fitted I'll post a pic.

How much did the Momo's set you back?

Cheers for the advice. I passed my theory test a couple of days ago, thought I had blown it but it turned out I got 34/35 and 51/75 so maybe if I go into my practical thinking I'll fail then I'll pass, hahaha.

Nah seriously, I'm crapping myself a bit but if I go in with the right attitude I reckon I'll be fine.
