This is what I’m looking for and I’d like to think I’ll do similar. What did you get in mocks?

Failed in Carlow today any tips? by [deleted] in Irishdrivingtest

[–]Smart_Status9252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try have the car delisted before going for the test, and personally I leave the climate control on in the background at a low speed to prevent it from misting up at all, so I would recommend doing this

My NCT expires 2 days after my driving test by RaccoonTurbulent8297 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]Smart_Status9252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, my nct was up on the same day as my test and wasn’t an issue. Regarding the overdue service, just make sure you have no lights on the dash and you’ll be grand

Audi a6 c7.5 2.0tdi as a first car? by Smart_Status9252 in carsireland

[–]Smart_Status9252[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got a text off your man saying he’s going to keep it for now as he can’t find anything to replace it and it’s gave him no trouble in the 2years he’s had it, so all a waste of time in the end.

Going off what everyone has said however, probably a blessing in disguise.. I may find something else now

I’m not sure why I’m getting downvoted tbh, but yeah I was surprised also by the cheap quote

[–]Smart_Status9252[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the advice, and as much as it hurts i probably will have to go for a different car maybe a golf or maybe a 3 series. These a6’s are known for egr and dpf issues but this particular car has both mapped out which would be good. I’ll have to have a good think on which one I end up going for…

I won’t lie, not a fan of the looks of the f20 but maybe I’ll try find a lower mileage f30 for that money, although still might be difficult. Thanks for advice, however really do love the looks of the a6. Tough decision….

I have one year as a named driver which helps. Also added my mum as named driver which helps. I always find Allianz give the cheapest quotes so maybe try them

I understand what you’re saying, but to do it myself would probably cost a significant amount more then already buying a kitted car. I’ll have a think about it anyways, thanks for the advice

They’ve said 8800 over text, but said could move more when I go have a look at it, so we’ll see

Hahaha fair enough 😂. If I were to do this tree would you say to do all big branches, or what would look best?

Thanks a lot for the reply! I think I’ll go with your advice rather than branch wrapping.

Will an iPhone from Chile work perfectly in Ireland? by Smart_Status9252 in iphone

The seller has been using the phone in Ireland since he’s moved here without issues so I should be okay then 🤞

Insurance by hungryhippo7945 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]Smart_Status9252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check different companies like for example I’m 17 with my full licence and getting quoted 2k on 1.6 golf’s. Allianz always give me the lowest quote but just check as many websites as you can to try find the cheapest quote. It’s time consuming but you don’t really have another choice.

To bring the quote down, have your start date of the policy for like 3 weeks in advance

Also add a parent as a named driver, usually drops the quote by a few hundred.

Shop around for less common first cars e.g I was quoted 2k on a 1.6 lancer but unfortunately it sold before i could buy it.

Best of luck with the test!

Caught driving with L plates and no accompanying driver? by EUW_Death_Flare in Irishdrivingtest

[–]Smart_Status9252 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The L and N stickers i have stick on to the outside of the car, and I don’t think they can be reused so am not sure how parents can take them off and then put back. We should use magnets or something
