Originally from Deal but currently in Faversham...but will be in Maidstone from 3rd Jan, so im gradually moving closer to the border

That is a nice car to have for a first one, be gentle with it!

Mate, I worked at KCCC (Kent County Cricket Club) 7 years ago - was hospitality manager of one of the boxes.

Assuming you know Abi? She runs the place, lol, her and I go way back.

Keep a look out for a Red GP, white alloys, white wing mirrors and triple white stripe on the sides... I'll be the one on the right hand lane overtaking everyone lol!

 

[rayrayli88]

Mis read that - thought you worked there lol! You just have a rave down there lol!

Haha awesome I'm always in Maidstone and yeah for a first car You can't go wrong really can't wait to pass my test and get off those L plates haha

It's a great feeling, but also little odd not to have someone sat in the passenger seat telling you where to go.

Watch how you drive buddy, insurance will be high for you.
I've had many near misses when I was younger, at 18 I'd just passed and drove a 1.4 VW Polo.

Almost stacked it into a tree and lost control twice.

Have you had a look at having a black box installed? If you are as careful as you seem then it might bring the figure down a bit.
