I’d feel so much better if I can fund my third year entirely or something.

16 to learn; 17 to drive.

It would cover a used car (probably). But idk what kind of car you'd want. Audi? Vauxhall? Volkswagen? Ford? Porsche?

Green or pink 🤮
Green or pink 🤮

Unless it was that retro dark green that old 60s sports cars had. That's a nice colour.

But idk why people buy bright green cars 🤔.

We used to have a 2003 model ford focus that was 16 years old but that was trashed when ULEZ came just out to where I am. If I lived 200 metres another way, we could’ve kept it but ULEZ is too pricy. I learnt the basics of driving from that but stopped when some old guy complained after staring at me and threatening to call the police. Now no car…
