          i passed mine in a metro with a dodgy clutch.i think the fact that i drove okish but with a dodgy clutch impressed the examiner.

            I passed my test in a Mk1 tawny brown 1.3 XL. At time I had a 998 Imp in fully works spec but figured examiners would take a dim view of that so took driving school car. Was first time I'd driven it as I only had car off driving school for the test.

                1983/4. Did a few lessons in a Metro, then a couple in a MK2 Fiesta, then a couple more and my test in an old 1973 HC Viva 1300 that the driving school still had lying around with twin controls. Drum brakes all round so emergency stop was no problem as the wheels wouldn't lock up ever, also rev round a corner easy with a car wi a boot. Then jumped into my met blue escort MK1 1300 GT rep ASP 514 M.
