BEC Driving Lesson - from a girl....
FFTS - 2/5/10 at 03:46 PM

Amazing - my girlfriend has finally decided, after months of persuasion, to drive Becky. Unfortunately she really liked it!

She attended a 30 minute briefing session about gear changes, wind speeds, emergency exits and reserve drills.

It took me weeks to get used to the gear changes and to stop stalling the engine. Expecting her to be considerably worse can you imagine my horror when she drove like an absolute pro! Were the country lanes enough for this Sunday afternoon bimble... Oh no..... We then had to go down the M65 and M61.

She is now enjoying her drive de-briefing by cooking my tea.

p.s. I really must remember to log off properly.

That ace.

Had a few girls drive my car, which is ofcause fairly easy as a ford derived cec but thye have all enjoyed it a lot.

One did tweak her left foot and stuggle to walk the following day. But rather embrasingly ive also done that once (driving in just socks as i had my steelies on)

My wife said she drove the car better than me, until she got stuck and wasn't strong enough to push it backwards.

She has a few things she wants on the next car i.e. more feel to the pedals, better seat / steering wheel layout, quicker rack and a reverse box

You've made a big mistake

Don't think that'll be a problem for me. Apart from the wife still being on L-plates, I'm 6ft4, she's 5ft2 and the seat isn't on runners Still, with no MOT at the moment on the Seven it's immaterial!!

YES!!! I did make a big mistake.. letting her know my password!

Do you really think I would be so complementary although I must say she did really well and loved it. Sorted for the next one though as she cant see over the aeroscreen in the VortX hahahaha.

P.S. REMINDER TO ME!!!..
LOG OFF WHEN OUT.. CHANGE PASSWORD.

Chris is probably too tall to fit and drive my little Fury, so your more than welcome to give it a test drive.
