I remember being on the freeway on L plates (back in the days when you were restricted to 70) and my dad was saying "c'mon, just go 10 kays faster, I won't tell your mother".

This is also the bloke who chopped the springs and added extractors on my first car - anyone looking to be adopted?

Sorry to say but things dont get any better on ya p's. I really enjoy the stories of l and p platers with skylines getting abused by less fortunate road users, oh how jealous those people are of someone so young with a car so much better than they will ever have. i bet their faces are totally green with envy!

The worst stereotype i reckon is that a young person with a fast car is automatically a irresponsible road user. That really pisses me off

I understand what you're experiencing. I did witnessed idiotic drivers that intimidate the crap out of L platers by tailgating. I have always given them enough space and time as I was once a L plater. The purpose of having the L plate there is to tell others to be tolerant and give the learner a chance.

I remembered being an L plater and making all sort of mistakes.People were courteous and patient back then. I think there are more cars on the roads and impatient drivers. Tailgaters not only tailgate L platers, they tailgate trucks, buses, cars of any sort, bikes...except Police vehicles.

Just yesterday, was doing 50km/h on a suburban street and this black holden ute rushed up behind me and eventually overtook me...i assume it was doing 80km/h or more. Lucky for him i dont remember his rego no.

    • Sounds like the solenoid might be cactus, if the solenoid trigger wire was still attached (and it was just the main power to the starter itself remove). Just to provoke Neil haunting me for the rest of my life... Have you tried tapping it with a hammer while someone switches the key to start? This might work for the fuel pump too... šŸ˜›
    • I need help dealing with an engineer who is massively overcharging me for an engineering report on my modified, written-off Jeep to get it roadworthy. šŸ”¹ Initially, he quoted me $3,500 - $4,500. šŸ”¹ First invoice: $5,315 (already above the quote). šŸ”¹ Second invoice: $1,375. šŸ”¹ Now, he has sent another invoice for $3,100! This is way more than double what I was originally quoted. I feel like Iā€™m being ripped off. Has anyone dealt with something like this before? What can I do? Any advice on how to report him or fight these unfair charges? Would really appreciate any guidance! šŸ™ Am in Adelaide.
    • I dunno man, that VX S with 200,000 k's is still hanging out for 1.5 I reckon the R34 is the better buy, personally.
