Driving test tomorrow, yippee!

Oh, does anyone know if you can get a bike in the back of a 106 or clio if you remove 1 wheel (from the bike :roll: )

Cheers

    not so sure about a clio but my cousin has a 106 gti and he takes off both wheels and it fits so a clio should be alright with one wheel off i suppose :!:

    You can get a bike in most cars if you take off the wheels.

    Good luck with it! Of course you're going to pass so perhaps you don't need luck :D

    What about a bike rack?

    My ex had a clio and it was perfect.

    bummer thats harsh. I failed first time when I pulled out onto roundabout in front of a van, passed 2nd time with 14 minors (almost maxed out every mirrors section :D ), but I still haven't had any crashes and can't think of any near misses either (5 years later).

    hope you've re-booked already?

    12th nov, obviously gonna look for a cancellation asap but I have to wait 2 week (??? - stupid rule).

    Question now is - is it worth buying the car I was planning to buy today anyway and use it to practice in til I do pass? The insurance is about the same anyway and petrols cheaper than proper lessons, could just have 1 or 2 before the re-sit.

    Might as well get the car. good for getting practise. have a parent sit in while you drive around the local town. You're close enough to passing to not need much advice so tell them not to say anything. You'll probably be a better/safer driver then them at this point anyway. the more experience the better.

    That is unfortunate- good luck for the next time though.

    I have been in a fiesta with three bikes (wheels off) in the back and two people so your bike will definately fit in the back of the clio or 106.
