    Ever since I was born i've been obsessed with anything cars.

    When I was 1 when ever I went past a petrol station I siad Beeeeeeh.....Ppppppp (B.P)

    I'm just fascinated with each and every car. I'm fascinated with my mums Corona cause its such a reliable and comfortable car. I'm fascinated with the Porsche 911 Turbo cause its such a fast car, while still being pracitcal. With every car I see I can always see one good thing in it. Maybe its that, trying to find the best in a car. I want the world to be more informed when buying a car, and not to think of it as mere transportation from A to B, but more as an experience. I guess thats part of why I want to be a Motoring Journalist. Informing people of what to drive and why. I can walk into a car park and name every single car without looking at a badge. Most people, even myself sometimes, would call this obsessive but I really am in love with cars. In some cases i'm much more interested in common cars rather than the ones that everyone like (e.g Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc) because so little emphasis is put on common cars and its more fun learning about them.

    And that pretty much sums it up?

    well theres alot that needs explaining, but cannot be explaind
    your brain just takes over and just thinks about cars and makes you obsessed
    then you develop a taste for cars
    then you would start watching programs like top gear or fith gear
    then it will all be added up to obsessiveness!

    I just noticed, I think it started with my absolute love of the smell of oil/gasoline in my apartment building's parking garage at the age of 4-9. Then I moved and I was already liking automobiles.

    It's hard to say why I like cars. Well one of the reasons was my dad. He is also a major car freak. When I was about 5 I was obsessed with trucks, I dunno why then I just caught onto cars. Ever since I cought onto cars well I sorta forgot about the whole truck thing. So virtually once you truelly like cars it's like a disease, you can't stop obsessing about them. I'm CAR CRAZY!!!!

    learner's license and provisional license. you get your learners at 16, drive with an instructor (dad), then get your provisional license at 17.

    L's (learners) are where we have to drive with a fully licenced driver, for 50 hours. then, we take another test, and we get our provisional licence (P's). where we can drive alone, without our full licence.

    the P's have limits on how many people you can have in a car at once, and how fast your legaly allowed to go.
