Got my first speeding ticket, and hopefully my last
120kph on a 80kph road, 340 euro. haha

holy shit
here for speeding like that you just give them 20-30eur bribe and thats all

He doesn't have a driving license, and it's a track car so no tax, insurance or fuel to really worry about.

Working full time & living at home would give you a *lot* of disposable income... I only work 12 hours a week and I could afford the ZT, think what you could get with quadruple that...

Nah Jakg, I JUST got my drivers license
But indeed, it is a trackcar and I can do whatever I want to it. I indeed live with my parents but I do have to pay costs for living and food! No, I'm not rich nor have rich parents. I just work allot (that's the main thing kids. ALLOT, not hard). + weekends I have other incomes...

EDIT: Oh, I started working when i was 15-16... figure out

i started working @ 17 took me 2 years to buy that honda,i have lot of payments to do. now i work less but still at least 70 hours a week,and hard work.i live with my gf who makes 250 $ a week. figure that out than !

And when I was 19, I was working part time for $3.35/hour, going to school, and had more money than I could dream of having now with a wife, 2 kids, house, cars, utilities, food, medical, etc. Oh, and a 97 Civic hadn't even been on the drawing board yet....

I worked as a label printer for a bacon factory 8 hours a day. I only worked Saturday and Sundays which gave me more wages over those two days than my dad made all week and when I did a short spell of 12 hour days I thought I'd hit the lottery. I had way more cash than I ever knew what to do with, so I saved half and spent half. I still had way too much disposable income and I quickly hit thousands in my savings.

I wish I had a job when I was in highschool.. my car would be awesome
actually I would be done with my car, and actually be saving for .. life..


@Sueycide
That'd be a horrible decision to buy that car; even in the images the car looks terrible, it says it has 160,000 miles but it looks to me it's got twice that easily; and I can promise you those aren't highway miles either.. the car is junk, it's been spray painted, it's all dented up.. $1k for that is already overpriced.. I'm sorry, but that thing is trash.. that is by no means a "project car"
Project cars are when you have a few 10k sitting around to fix up a non destroyed car to begin with, and already have something to get around in.. definitely not your primary transportation.

afaik they can only 'give' you points when they pull you over. When caught by a speed camera it could be anyone driving, so they don't know it was you, it just as well could have been your mom or dad or someone you lend your car out to. They just send the fine to the person the car is registered on. So I'm thinking you'd be just getting a big ass fine

speed cameras sound like the work of the lowest, most despicable filthmonkey in existence, I'm so glad they haven't caught on here. Don't we pay cops billions per year in pensions and salaries to have the decency to catch us in person?

jayleehb, awesome car!

Are the Police in Holland really that retarded? In the UK, you get points and a fine sent to the Registered owner. If there was someone else driving at the time, you have to dispute the driving charge.

You have to provide the ID of who you think was driving at the time, failing to provide the ID of the driver is another offence entirely.

You also have a type of camera which takes pics from the front, and also gets one of the driver in case of any disputes, I think they are the Truvelo type cameras.

Well, I think they don't care who drove too fast, just that someone did. In my opinion they are way past the point were they fine you to keep traffic safe. It's all about having a way to make money.

Anyway, to keep the thread ontopic, maybe I'll go out and shoot some pics of the car I (get to) drive It's my moms, so don't laugh at me I'm just glad to have the opportunity to drive a car
