man... manuals are piss easy...

got my manual p's first time and haven't looked back.

get used to roads on L for a couple of months and then jump inot a manual and get going, its really not hard. I used ot be so **** with take off but once oyu learn a clutches pattern it easy!

PLUS! manuals are faster, cooler, drop better skids and gives your left foot somehting to do!

GO MANUALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i know in vic, once you get off your ps, your licence becomes completely open, can drive auto and manual. dont have to do any other tests, etc, just drive it.

yeh u cant do that in WA once u get ur auto licence ur stuck wid it til u convert it to manual...mate just get ur manual licence...in the end ur guna get manual anyway so why not just get it now and then ull have more time to pratice.

and mate thats the whole purpose of the l plates...to learn how to drive and its the period in which those plates excuse u from making driving mistakes....well technical ones anyway.

just go for it and be confident about it....if ur not confident about driving a manual (which it sounds like you are) then best thing to do is practice...and practice makes perfect...mmm few too many years of school coming through there lol :thumbsup:

go for it bud! :thumbsup:

yeah its definitely not a rule in SA. apparently it used to be when autos started becoming more common but they got rid of it years ago.
