Skyryan, its not the easiest thing passing a manual test these days cause of hoons, you get pinged for absolutely everything. Right at the start of my test, I pulled out onto the main road which is 3 lane (1 right only and far left is normal + left turn) and I chose the far left and the assessor commented on how I'm the only one to have done that for a long time, points lost if you didn't. There's so many ridiculous trivial things to get done for and its hard to concentrate cause as a beginner you have to worry about what gear your in etc.
Also, you have no idea how hard it is to resist going for a drive in the GTR when you have it sitting sadly in the garage on auto Ps.... (Thankfully I never did that )
