You wont be able to keep it on your P's, Will you?

[Drawnnite]

yeah nice first car.
looks pretty clean and neat. just requires 4x same rims

enjoy driving it while you can. then youll have to wait 4 years before driving it legally on the road again =P

Engine Type: 6LTR V8

Are you sure its a 6L.

I dont really understand buying a car like this on your p's. Oh also would look great for cops, your on your L's and have stockers on the back...

This is just a whole thread of stupid/

[V-ahhh]

by the sounds of it he swapped a bike for it not a car......

[nathanVY]

Unless it's had a conversion it won't be a 6L.

[VP-PWR]

sorry typo its a 5L. I just got my L's so its my car till im 18 then will just be a project, yeah wheels will be the first thing i get after I get rego. I swapped it for 1997 Honda CR 125

[azkwazere]

who in their right mind would swap a 6-7k car for a 3k(max) POS bike?

aZk.

[ClairBear]

its my car till im 18

It's modified therefore you cannot drive it until you are on a full licence.

[dobesz]

U van drive whatever u like on your ls. There was a 11 second vl turbo at my mechanics with a learner driver lol just once he hits his ps he can't drive it!
Don't see the problem with it. Will then be a project car, what's so hard to understand about this? I have a few mates who drive ls1s on there ps!
I had an 02 200sx when on my ps in 04. Never got done for it and made 220rwkws

[Vsfan95]

if you read into the laws surrounding L's and P's when under the age of 25 it states that you can't drive a supercharged or turboed vehicle whether factory fitted or aftermarket except turbo diesel engines and you can drive any car you want as long as it doesn't exceed 200 kw in power

[dobesz]

Well he is fine then as no chance the five 0 has 200kws

All the rich kids drive mum and dads v8 metcs etc

[VP-PWR]

everybody, i know i cant drive it on my p's! Its my car till im 18 and then it will be a project.

On your Ls you can drive whatever you want and as he said that's what hes got Ls. I used to always drive my 5ltr stato on my Ls got pulled over but never had a problem with it.

And nice stato mate not a bad car for a 16 year old, i was 16 when i got my old 5ltr stato to.

Are you saying you intend being on your L's till you are 18 given you are 16 now?

[dobesz]

Um that's an odd question? Can't get your ps until 18 so what els would he do

[matty94]

Are you saying you intend being on your L's till you are 18 given you are 16 now?

Here in Victoria you cant get your Ps till your 18 so yeah he has no choice but to be on hes Ls to hes 18.

Would have thought you being a Moderator you would have looked at the state.

[ClairBear]

Would have thought you being a Moderator you would have looked at the state.

What an odd thing to say. Do you think we exam the profiles of every member we reply to? For that matter if I did notice he lived in Vic and I am here in SA, would you then assume that as a Moderator I would know the ins and outs of a ducks bum for every states rules?

Um that's an odd question? Can't get your ps until 18 so what els would he do

I live in SA. As stated above, I don't profess to know the laws in every state, hence my question.

Well you said 2 times he cant drive it so why would you say that if you don't know what the law is? anyways its hes thread why don't we stop filling it up.

[some_guy]

I think he means project car, until its legal. So many people on here jump on the legality of things. Its not your life. Criticise the vehicle our leave. Sick of everyone linking government transport sites telling people " you can drive this, you can't drive this " us it your life? No.
