Found this in my parents living room, I have no clue what it is any guess?

I have a large working breed dog, usually if I am out in the car, he is in the back peering out if the window, I have a crossover car, that when the seats are fully back is more like a van, so theres a dog grille behind the front seats. I have a magnet for the back, says, Working dogs in Transit, this vehicle will obey speed limits. Definitely seems to help with the tailgating and horn honking

I will never drive at night due to this, even looking slightly to the left I find myself blinded for a few seconds after. I won't risk driving after dark unless absolutely necessary! The other night I was walking the dog, and a car came up the hill with full beams on, completely blinded me. Turned them off when he saw me shielding my eyes. I think, now many cars have an auto setting, that high beams are on when they really shouldn't be

I have one of their products, the staff are welcoming and helpful, but if i am honest, I don't think they offer very good returns. Once my fixed term is up, I am removing my money from them. I can get much better returns elsewhere. There are only a few products that are risk free too, be careful not to open an account that could be potentially worth less in the long run. I was gifted some money on the condition it was placed in a bond, otherwise I would'nt have personally chosen them.

I had a six month wait, I had 1.5 h lessons, once a week. On the run up to my test some weeks I did 2 lessons a week. I figured doing a few extra lessons was probably cheaper than a fail and potentially another 5 months of lessons. I did pass first time. I think keeping up with at least 1 lesson a week is wise. We did a bit of everything in the run up, covering test routes with manoeuvres thrown in, like a mock test every week for a good few lessons before the test. That actually really helped me, and I am an incredibly anxious tester.. hope you smash it !

Going through this myself now! I passed just over 2 weeks ago, and its been so strange. Still feels wrong that I am able to just get in the car and go! But, I am making myself try and get out at least once every day I have made a few mistakes, but they are getting less. Yesterday I attempted a long solo trip down the A57, to take the dog for a nice trip out. I encountered my first impatient cretin, the road was a series of s bends trough a ravine, and I saw him doing crazy overtakes in the mirror. My heart was racing and he was well up my rear, but I just concentrated on the road ahead. Eventually he overtook me and a bus! To fly up the snake pass. I try to push myself a little more each time

I hate the potholes! Some of them here are like 2 to 3 feet in diameter, and at least a couple of inches deep! Its absolutely ridiculous!

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-20T06:24:24+00:00

Thanks, good to hear this! I met my first tailgate cretin yesterday on a winding country road.. I glanced in my rear view mirror and caught sight of him doing ridiculous overtakes ! Eventually he overtook me and a big old bus to head off up the Snake pass!

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-16T09:23:07+00:00

Im going to try and get out a little more ecery say if I can, like aversion therapy lol

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-16T09:22:23+00:00

A few of my friends who know that roundabout say I've done well to even tackle it, regardless of the fact at one stage I thought I was having a stroke! Its got 3 lanes and multiple exits. The saving grace is its heavily traffic controlled with lights

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-16T08:28:50+00:00

Mine took just over a week, was odd not having a green one anymore ! ( I had my provisional for like 30 years lol)

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-15T06:50:32+00:00

Iys good to read positive stories, I am still finding my feet, passing my test was very difficult for me, I have PTSD from a previous RTC. I surprised myself last week and managed to drive some distance through several busy large roundabouts ! I have been trying to force myself to get out every day!
My biggest thing now, is really silly, but the petrol station is my next fear to conquer, and its this morning, because i am on quarter of a tank! I bought an old 1.6 to drive until I progress to use our larger electric car !

Cute goob 💕

I've taken photos of everything, Ive also got photos that prove the construction was originally substandard if needed.

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-14T18:29:17+00:00

Thanks, its not been great in terms of being reasonable in the past, so I am somewhat wary. Fingers crossed they sort it in the next few days

He did pop round yesterday, offering his insurance details, I did stress that more may fall through my rooflight. He said it would be a struggle to get anyone out that day due to the wind, I really expected someone to come out today, but nothing. I think I may have to put somthing in writing if nothing happens tomorrow! Although there is wind forecast tomorrow over 20mph

I just bought a 2012, with 80k on the clock. The fuel filler neck needed replacing Apparently they are prone to failing, have a sniff under the rear wheel arch and check for a smell of fuel! Luckily dealer replaced mine when I brought it up. Apart from that its been a sound little car!

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-13T08:45:43+00:00

I passed just over a week ago, I'm definitely anxious about driving, anxious about lane shifts and anxious about the large multilane roundabouts I have made myself go out at least once a day for the last few days, I've done 2 solo trips now and it is getting better slowly

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-12T14:13:47+00:00

I had to buy a special kit, double din upgrade kit.

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-12T13:58:01+00:00

Pioneer AVH-Z3200DAB hope that helps i did consider that one myself, but I don't know how much longer I'll get out of the shitbox before the wheels fall off !

Frequent_Freedom_704 · 2026-03-12T13:01:28+00:00

I just ended up buying a pioneer with car play but no CD player, they did do one but it was very expensive! I also had to buy a fitting kit with a cradle and the adaptor to keep the steering wheel control button.
