A Ford Fiesta, if I remember rightly.

Fun fact, my grandfather never took a driving test since he got his license back in the days when all you needed to do was hand over five shillings.

Good news! It was a Dacia Sandero!

'99 Renault Megane scenic 1.9D (manual)

it was dangerously slow. And I failed my first test because of it. I was supposed to merge in front of a truck, but i simply couldn't get up to speed in the space i had. The exam lady refused to believe me that it couldn't.

A Buick Roadmaster Estate Master...thing cornered like an ocean liner... floor it and like in fifteen minutes we'd be doing 60 mph. Every ten minutes we'd have to get out and pledge the sides... because of the 'wooden' sides.

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Imaginary. I've never taken a driver's test or had a driver's license.

I am, however, fully instrument-rated on my local urban mass transit.

[–] prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Which mass transit vehicle did you pass your test in? How did parallel parking go?

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I had to sit in an empty seat between two strangers on a New York City E train. It went fine because I remembered to take my backpack off beforehand and put it in my lap.

[–] SektorC@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 21 hours ago

The car i'm failed my drivers test was a Ford Ranger.

[–] pan0wski@infosec.pub 1 points 22 hours ago

2017 Dacia Sandero.

I was going to take it in a 1987 Toyota Camry, manual transmission, but the clutch burned up (not my fault... Maybe), and my parents didn't want to get it fixed. I took the test in the driving school's only manual transmission car, which was... A gray sedan, with a second brake pedal for the passenger.

Not a bad way to gather some security question answers I guess

[–] tyler@programming.dev 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

To anyone reading this, generate a password for your security answer and stick it in your password manager. It’s safer than trying to remember a fake security answer and much safer than using a real security answer.

[–] medgremlin@midwest.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I just use nonsense answers or answers that make absolutely no sense to anyone else. (Inside jokes and the like)

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

i did that until i needed to recover an account years later and didn't remember the inside jokes

Manual transmission, 1982 SAAB 900. It was canary yellow in 1981 when it was made. It was what I called dog puke yellow by the time I learned to drive in '95-'96.

Kia Pride. First generation. Falling apart, basically a soda can with wheels. Clutch so atrocious that I basically had to relearn how to drive during those fifteen minutes. Allegedly someone I knew got one that didn’t even have a gas pedal, just a relatively high idle.

Only the finest public property here in Lebanon.

I passed in 2007 with a VW Polo ❤️

At the moment, my learners are passing in a 2015 VW Scirocco 😎

[–] Million@lemmy.zip 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Scirocco looking kinda fly ngl

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Thanks! Plenty of people questioned my choice - I questioned my choice 😂 - even as I was dropping hundreds on getting the dual controls installed.

But honestly, it has been such a perfect choice ❤️ thankfully the gearbox fucked up IN warranty! But apart from that one got no complaints. The learners love it as well!

Plenty of horsepower gives them confidence on the motorways 😎 and the power delivery is so smooth ❤️ it is literally just a Golf with a sporty body

[–] genuineparts@infosec.pub 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Fairly easy. VW Golf. Almost all Driving School cars here are some sort of VW Group Cars (VW, Audi, Skoda)

Some Audi, it was quite nice and new and the instructor would pet it and whisper to it every time I stalled the engine during lessons.
