Default I just got my Ps

After a long hard trip with vicroads (see http://fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11199834)

I finally got my Ps today! :
(manual)

So I hope to see you all on the roads in the future, I'll be in a rundown white '93 ED Falcon, but if everything goes well, it should look great within the next few months.

See you all around!

Congratulations mate, love the first few days of having a license, the freedom is the best thing.

I don't think anyone would have any chances of picking out your falcon there's millions of them in the condition

Nah not really, my tester gave me this feedback:
-Check your mirror more often (I found you have to physically move your head for them to notice you checking)
-Don't flip it out of gear at the lights (manual) (I was doing this because we have problems with the clutch)
-Watch your speed! (yeh... no excuse for this...)
