xrt Member 160 Member For: 16y 6m 14d Posted 26/10/10 09:17 AM Share Posted 26/10/10 09:17 AM people forget that some 19 year olds are on pretty good money, theres apprentices here in WA working away earning over 70 grand a year on there way to a 140k+ pay packet in a few years. so just because your young it doesnt mean you cant afford a loan.theres no laws in WA either and I bought my xr6t 2 years ago when I was 18 on green P's, also had a ba v8 fairmont before that on red p's.never been pulled over once.drive responsibly, dont cover your car in *beep* stickers to make yourself stand out, and you wont get done.but saying that if I lived over east I would definatly be sorting out my insurance properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just drive a non turbo till your off your p's mate It's not that long of wait, and you will respect the turbo a hell of a lot moreAlso p-plater with turbo is 90% chance of losing your license, and if you have your own business you can't afford to not have a license (Also I just turned 25, so I'm not an old Bugga whinging, haha) just offering advice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiftyOne Bronze Donating Members 1,145 Member For: 11y 6m 3d Gender: Male Posted 31/08/14 01:11 PM Share Posted 31/08/14 01:11 PM Just going to put it out there so [FlameSuitOn]I've been part of another fords site for some time and whenever this question is asked, there is a sh*tstorm of hate. I don't wish to sound like a kunt, but learn to drive first. These rules are to keep all & sundry safe, right or wrong the exceptions are there for a reason. The latest plate reading equipment they have would have alarms going off everyday and I'm fairly sure the cops have descression how they allow that so my best is if you continue you'd be on foot walking within a week. My take on it? save the money and buy a house. That gets the bitches moist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnz Member 3,047 Member For: 11y 1m 15d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 31/08/14 09:25 PM Share Posted 31/08/14 09:25 PM Do a couple of mods to an N/A, an fg will make over 200rwkw. I keep saying this every time this question comes up. Were spoilt for horse power these days and it makes us greedy. 300hp at the tyres is alot of power for a first car and alot more than we had back in the day. A dude on here dropped a bomb on a 6cyl vk back in the day and ran sub 80rwkw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
