in Northern Ireland, when u pass ur test u have to display R plates which mean Restricted and u are limited to 45mph max! (even on motorways) :(

thanks for the comments! :)

also smoked side repeaters here but waiting till the car passes the MOT before i put them on

. wrote: you have to be kidding me?! you can only go at 45mph?! is that not dangerous on the motorways going so slowly with fast moving traffic all around you?


yea, i think it is dangerous and stupid, but if we get caught without them the police come down pretty hard on u :(

its quite irritating watching everyone speed past but they have to be displayed for one year after you pass your test :(. 11 Months left with them lol

@ Dash - its an ashley competition twin 3\" backbox...its not loud, makes a nice subtle rumble and affordable to ;)

@ Octane - i think it is an invite for nobheads to overtake, anyone who is young and on R plates (even worse if they drive a corsa) is deemed as boy racer by everyone! :(

@ . - lol, if u are caught without them u will get a fine and a warning, if caught without them twice i think they put points on ur licence and another fine which sucks a lot! and lol, i agree many irish people are weird...as is ireland :P

another update**passed the MOT yesterday (yay ;D) but today when i was on my way to the bank i heard an awful noise so i drove down a side street and checked the rear to find my exhaust was just about hanging on no more....the two rubber mounts have either fallen off or broke somewhere....any ideas on how i can over this so it doesnt happen again?
