hey guys, im soon to get my license back, early august.. and have to decide whether to choose 3 months extra to refresh my 12 points, or go on a 12 month option with 1 demerit point, im definetly buying a R34 GTR , and a daily

but after opinions on what would you guys do? if i take the 1 point il be nervous to drive anywhere, doesnt matter how cautious you are you can get done for anything these days

but i also just want to drive again.

or does anyone know someone in vicroads to clear the option and give me 12 points? for $$ ofcourse

opinions/thoughts

I was in your exact situation 5 months ago......

lets just say I get my license back in 1 month now instead of having it for the last 2 months....

And I don't drive like a dick, never been done for high speed, DUI etc etc and Never been done in my GT-R take the three.

You'll still take the 1pt. If you were stupid enough to lose that many points, you're stupid enough to think you can go a year without a ticket. Which of course, you're wrong. ;)

When I lost mine I had a maximum of 4 points, easy to lose 4, one offense really.

So how come you dont get full points after you have already lost your license? I thought that the 1 point or 3 month option was only if you were about to loose your license, thats what happened to me a few years ago and I just took the 3 month option, 3 months isnt much really to wait, just think of it as a time to save money for your gtr.

3 months all the way anth. Sometimes a cop will find an excuse to make you lose the 1 point. You can be a perfect driver and still get done for it lol. Better of with 12 than 1 and only to wait approx 90 days.

Not long now before you find your bayside 34R :)

Will be speaking to ya soon

I'd take the 3 month option. I'm a pretty cautious driver and try to obey the limits, but occasionally I'll drift a couple of k's over and that's all it takes to get flashed. I've literally had like 3 spending fines in the last couple of years all 3-4ks over the limit.

I got done when I was picking my car up from Victoria for speeding (1st offence).

they managed to transfer it to NSW and I'm sitting here for about 4 months w/o licience. I believe I had a 1 point option if I chased it up, but I'd still rather sit it out.

If you get a cop on a bad day, or slip up in any way for that year, you'll need to sit it out anyway.

Escpeccially in Victoria, the f**king Nanny state, the missus and I got fines for doing 5km over and lost two points. cool.

good luck not loosing 1 point in 12months. especially that youb guys have the 1point fine for like 5kms over LOL

seriously, the statistics show the a majority of people who go for that option loose the 1 point.....just make sure if you do opt for the 1point over 12months, you drive like a friggin grandma

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
