    silly question.. but did you pass your test in an auto?? if so, check with the DVLA to see if you're actually allowed to drive a manual.....

    No passed in geared car.

    Well drove it this morning and was better than I thought it would be. Just one stall at a roundabout when I forgot to drop the clutch. Otherwise the one thing I need to get used to is when pulling off in first and trying to get used to the biting point.

    So --- so far so good:j
