    You'll be grand.. I'm actually well used to reversing at this stage as our car park in work is pretty narrow (and my car is actually fairly long for a coupe)

    Oh a classic:D You do keep me amused kaiser during a long day in the office. You have to be the worst person I have seen reverse in my life. Have already warned you before about this and not checking your blind spots etc.

    Faily long? its tiny. Also your carpark is massive. Want to see the cubbie hole they call a car park in here and then try to park a passat in it!

    yeh i really dont mind reversing as i reverse into my space in work every day too,but im just worried about them marking you on how far away fron the kerb you have to be,but yet not too close to the kerb either,im goina practise for an hr before i go into the test centre,and im also goina eat the rules of thr road book to make sure i do well on the questions,its actually the questions im more nervous about cos ill have to speak to the Mr Tester.And because its not til 5.50 im sure he'l be pretty peed off at the hr of the evening and wont be in any form for me stuttering and stumbling thru the questions and road signs,cos i dont know the exact names of all the road signs but im sure if i tell him in my own words what they mean he shouldnt be too hard on me!!

    Where are you doing it? I'm doing mine in Finglas...

    Guy I got last time was alright.. not much on conversation, but I expected that.
    As for reversing, you're allowed be as far as 18 inches out I believe which is miles :D... Just take it slow and look all around you and you'll be ok. It's not a race remember.
