That's the dream man :biggrin:

Out of curiosity, what plate is our A3 and how much did you pay for it/insurance. Imagine it's fairly (completely) out of my price range though :colonhash:

2007 and I bought it in 2012, £7,000 at the time. £1,600 ish was my first policy at 20 with off street parking etc. Had an internship that paid really well that summer so just spunked it before I drank it away tbh :colondollar:

It's only worth it iff you're making journeys that are already expensive imo

I don't have a car. It's not justifiable for me to been in London for the reason Zurich said, insurance and I'm pretty much always in the congestion charge zone.

When I do drive other people's car though, it's usually a german whip.


Oh alright, well that's fair enough. :smile:

aha, another Dutchie around is no bad thing :wink: Always been over and back to Amsterdam my whole life, usually fly from London City so it's literally a 30m flight but it's just the cost that can add up. It's not a long drive anyway and I find it quite relaxing tbh.

Depends where you live really, always found TFL just the job for me. London's a big place but I have absolutely no interest in anywhere West of Bush, South of Clapham or East of Bethnal Green 90% of the time :tongue:

It is handy for shopping and that for sure, bought a load of ikea the other week and I wouldnt have fancied logging it on the train tbh :tongue:


Yeah ikr :tongue: I miss Holland, it just feels like everything is easier and less fast paced over there :frown: I pay more attention to Holland than I do to my other ethnic half sometimes lol!

Thing is you see, I had my heart set on going to uni in Nottingham but circumstances changed and I realised I didn't want to leave London. Obviously many factors came into this decision but one of the reasons why I want to stay in London is solely because of TFL haha! Not many people appreciate it but honestly it's such a good system ( Most times) when I'm not going to be driving of course. :wink:

I can honestly tell you that I don't think I've ever been South London.

That's quite good tbh, what engine size? Yeah internships help :tongue: got some money saved up and bro' swilling to chip in but max budget is probably £2000 (most likely cheaper, depending on insurance).

It depends, if I go Uni in London then no won't need one but if I'm staying local I'm paying £3 one way for a ride into town even though I live 10 mins drive ffs. It's convenient anyway, got friends that I visit in cities that are effort on the train and there's no one way there so yeah. For you guys in London defo not worth it though.

Strange country, anti-social, borderline autistic behaviour spliced in with brutally direct honesty. Like when you make a bet in a bookies and the old guy behind the counter asks if you know anything about football, in all honesty or you make a joke at the bus stop and are assumed to be a mental patient...:colonhash:

And this country got a reputation for hedonistic liberalism? Holland hired some good PR guys man

Lolololololol!! Such creative writing Zurich, I felt that passion, that sheer pain.
Have to agree though this country I freakin bipolar. Hedonistic liberalism lol, even kids as young as 9 get in with it. Did you see the morning metro? In it there was a story about a guy who was proud of his daughter for giving birth at the age of 12 and for staying with her 14 year old boyfriend through the 'tough times'. I'm such a traditionalist at timex so that's just madness.

You should not be surprised that the alcohol age restriction in Holland is significantly lower than it is here, a recent survey showed that Britain had the probably one of the 'worst youth population' in the world in terms of education, discipline, health and lifestyle etc.

Oh well lol. (Soz I always end up typing an essay, I'm off to bed in a minute so don't worry!) :smile:
Lol Yaboy is back! And guess what his new name is now? 'Yaboy419sDad' lolololol.

Can a girl accuse you of rape for fingering her without permission?

Someone aware me of the legality.
