I have been learning to drive for 4 months now, and i have never stopped hating it.
Feels like a chore everytime i have a lesson, and going out in mine is the worst.
I do feel like an idiot driving along in my car all modified with L plates on it, and i get alot of other boy racers trying to race me which is annoying.
Also my exhaust is very loud now i have the remus section on it, so it attracts alot of attention and being that my car is a 1.0 i always have someone driving up my ass.

I do like the sound of the exhaust but it ain't doing the car any good, and its abit harder to drive it.

So are my feelings towards learning to drive normal and did/does anyone else feel like this?
Or am i just worrying to much?

cheers

It's different when you're learning, there's pressure.

Learning to drive was smart, although if I had a bad or a boring lesson i'd feel like "what's the point" but after passing it's soooooo worth it, ditch the mods so u don't get noticed as much!

you have first dibbs if they go lol.

You will have to sort out the front indicators though, i just chucked in some orange bulbs that fitted, but they flash to fast so you'd have to sort that out.

thanks, i have a few plans for it still, to make it stand out less.
Such as getting rid of the side and rear badges- all the irmscher ones, getting rid of the mudflpas for some standard ones, i just think they look alot better.

Exhaust is next to go, perhaps the headlights and eyebrows next and replace them with depos.

don't be silly its tough when you are learning, it seems like hassle and stress to drive, ppl up behind do not help matters but ignore them their just twats!

when you have passed just think you already have a nice car to get about in unlike most, who will be driving sheds about until they can afford to do something with it or sell it

when you pass plan to be there on the cs stand for trax
