Newbie with a 205

[MentalSarcasm]

I'm new! I'm a woman, and a student, and my current car (and also my first) is a Peugeot 205. J-reg, can't remember the engine size but I've been reliably informed that it's very powerful, used to be my Grandad's car before he gave it to me and got a small Merc instead.

And...that's about it.

Thank you ^_^.

Welcome. More women in fast cars needed in the world of Pistonheads if you ask me. I might start a recruitment campaign.

Nice car, but then I am biased!

Unfortunately having a powerful car doesn't necessarily mean I use it. I was going to drive a minibus for the Students Union this year (Non-Res bus service set up by our Union to combat drunk driving, for £1 it'll take you anywhere in a 2 mile or so radius and runs until 4am), which you need a clean license for. That and I'm a student driver and my insurance is pathetically high so I tend to drive carefully, desperately need to build up a no-claims bonus.

Worked so far, haven't crashed once yet. (Touch wood).

Interesting. I just signed up to drive the uni non-res buses at my uni! The coincidence!
