I did, but it required far too much work for its MOT, this Mondeo come up at a good price so I got it

11 months MOT and 6 Months Tax, along with a cam belt change 300 miles before I got it

Well done, happy motoring

Well done, the best drivers pass on their 3rd attempt

Take it easy out there

I think the number of times needs to be settled once and for all...

The best drivers pass.

Well done on passing, as Taken says though, now you really learn to drive. Enjoy the car, but be sensible...I know I wasn't when I passed...and I should have been.

But play safe.

Don't want to have a 'I just wrote off my car' thread the day after you've passed.

Ive been having fun, but so far have only covered about 30 miles

, damn work!!! I am loving the freedom

Tican · 19 Jun 2008 at 22:43

The Mondento is sooo easy to drive, one problem is that the insurance details aren't on the database yet, any ideas when it will be on there?

Just a quick q. to you Blinks.

How did you find hazard perception? I've got a dvd thing for the pc with videos and while it's alright the videos are really quite crap quality which makes it hard to spot things...did you find it fairly easy in the real thing?

The actual clips in the test are pretty much the same quality i'm afraid

It's quite hard to make things out sometimes.

Having the same problem too. Is your DVD the one that makes you watch ALL the videos before revealing a pin number at the end, which allows you to access the 'practice' section?

Tican · 19 Jun 2008 at 22:49

I only scraped that one unfortunately! But the real one is higher (slightly) quality than most clips available for it, but in the disk I used it was the same. The best software I found was "Driving Test Success 07/08 [DVD-Rom]"

The software also tells you when you are ready for the theory, and also offer a money back (theory money) guarantee, as long as the software tells you that you are ready
