I am kinda nervous for my first driving test. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations to cary out before the day? I have a feeling if i just leave it until the day i'll f*** something up man.

Also, what was your first car?

Mine is a 2001 renault clio. Current mods; i have installed an engine start button and i have installed lower coils.

I don't have many tips, however the main reason people I know have failed is not looking in their mirrors enough or when coming off a roundabout. Check blindspots and mirrors is all I'd say..

First car was a Mini 1.6

It really depends on the instructor. My drivers ed was 6 weeks, 6 different drives + a driving test. Some instructors were hard asses which sucked, and some instructors would pass you as long as you don't wreck the car. Past the instructor, driving is just common sense.

My first vehicle was a 1997 Ford F-150 4x4.

Not going to lie when I took the test I was nervous but what I would advise is to use your blinker EVERY WHERE yes including a parking lot. This may sound like a gimmie, but where I'm from so many people failed from not using their blinker enough.

Crack open a beer when you get in the car and they'll let you retake it again when you are more confident

I honestly felt horrible just before the test, nearly wanted to throw up, but as soon as we sat in the car and got passed the show me tell me questions, you should be fine, my nerves pretty much went away when we started driving. Just remember to check mirrors at all times, and all make sure you do them in the right order, I got minor marks for something that could have been avoided, when I was asked to pull over, before setting off again I indicated then checked mirrors and blindspots, make sure your check-indicate-quickly check again and set off.

My first and current car is a 1.6 Mini Cooper 02

Goodluck with your test
