did my test in a mk1 - its great 'cos the guages are buried so far into the dash you really need to lean over a loong way to see from the passenger seat. got mine first go too.

got mine first go too and only ever had 1 lesson (with a instructor) - pretty much taught myself, with a bit of help from the olds...

Jeez! Well at least it's less than 1,000.

It took me 2 goes, and the second with only 2 markdowns Started reversing out with the door... erm... open.

Passed the knowledge test first go. I let the car coast above 60km/h down a hill and failed my first practical test. Passed the second.

3x lucky ... first failed to honk the horn for a stupid car cut into my way during the test and also took my left foot off the clutch on neutral at the red light.

Second almost failed to stop at red light (turning green just in time as I drove past the light). It was at the tricky multiple traffic lights on the (Sydney) Neutral Bay - Millitary Rd overpass ramp to/from the Warringah Freeway if you know what I mean ... too overwhelming for a nervous L-platter

1 go. almost didn't because they said I did 60 in a 40 school zone, but seeing as my test didn't start till the school time zone ended i corrected them and passed

1st go, was so easy, i did my odd 100+ hours of driving with my parents, (german) so i got mauled into driving properly, did it in a huge lifted and bullied up Nissan Patrol, my instructor fell out of the car when he got out. serves him right, trying to make me reverse park where there was a tree sticking out and in between two closely parked cars. but i managed 1st go, he didnt belive it too thought i had an automatic reverser or camera installed.

2nd attempt, the first failed within 2mins of the exam, i was with an utter a$$hole.
