Haa haa.
Yea Tom Drives a Femini
doesn't he.
He once had a 1600 sedan, but he crashed
it, he was in a huge rush to ge a replacement, I sold him a nice wagon
fixerupera, but afaik he was in a rush to get it SA registered, threw in the Z18
out of the sedan, and tried to get it passed over there without doing anything
to fix her into a nice car.
He got it stickered and it hasn't seen the
road since.
Seems a shame to know there is a unloved
wagon over there in SA.
Later.
Rick White.

You
forgot
NO CLASS - you drive a
gemini
Tom,
In Perth you have the
choice.
E-Class Any motor car
with automatic transmission.
A-Class Any motor car equipt to seat 10 or less adult persons
including driver.
And No You Can't drive a manual with only a E-Class
licence.
I hope this sorts out all the
questions,
P.S You can not get a cheap upgrade to
A-Class after 12 months over here in Perth, you need to resit your test in a
car with manual transmission.
