[reed]

Well, after 4 year of riding my bike through winter, i have finally given in at the age of 20 and decided to do my driving test. had my theory for a year or so and have done 5 lessons over the last few weeks, test is booked for next week. (will be keeping the bike too.)

Here is the sexy little number i will be cruising the streets in...

Good on you. I was 26 when I made the decision to grow the fuck up and get a car licence. There's no man points in riding all year round I'm afraid, despite what the sad beardy weirdy's might say.

[Ariel Badger]

I rode all year round into my 50s, I just took a long time to learn I was being a dick and should use the car licence a bit more.

Well done on the car license, not so much on the car but then again you got to start somewhere

Would rather walk



But, no matter how ugly it is, it beats the hell out of sliding down the road because of ice, that much I can say.

Guide to pass your test with no lessons!

I've never understood the whole 'man points' thing etc - never seen it as much hassle because when I've been riding through winter, I've just sorted out the right kit so I don't get cold.

Often found myself overall warmer on the bike than in a car because I leave the house wearing a warm jacket, rather than getting in to a cold car and having to wait for that to heat up.

Pff, where is your willpower? I passed my car test at 17 and 13 years on, I've still never owned a car. Why would I, they are boring as shit.

Fair play to you&your determination to be a hard bastard road warrior Instigator!

To the OP, nice move in getting your car licence and well done. That little runabout will be great for the winters, but not just that. The next time you need to pick up the dry cleaning, a garden table&chairs, or your re-decorating the house and need 10litres of paint/wallpaper etc.

That looks to be in very good cosmetic condition for a mid 90's Fiat, and if it's rust free, it will hold it's value a bit, as PPC type car nuts like these things for sticking in bike engines or making into cheap fwd track cars etc.

Oh and I like small light car's and for fun on a day to day basis they are much more satisfying and fun to drive than a big powerful sports saloon etc.

You can't beat a car during the winter.
I used to ride through the winters also but I hated sliding all over the place, the salt eating my bike and toffee knees I'd get with the freezing cold rides to work.

It's not rocket science.

One has a bose stereo, heated seats, climate control, xenon lights, wipers, dimming heated mirrors, ABS and ESP and will do 155mph.
The other has handlebars and will not.

And if there's no traffic (including at any shops etc - I particularly dislike taking 4 wheels in to towns/cities), I'd certainly be considering taking the car instead of a bike in summer too.
