My first car on my P's was a HX Sandman 5L 4 speed, 1st gear was gone in the box and i was driving along and saw some mates on the side of the road, hung my head out the window and threw some cheek, when i looked back around i was on the wrong side of the road heading straight for the local police car coming the other way, i just about crapped myself and of course they pulled me over and just let me off with a warning, then i had to start off in 2nd gear on a fairly steep uphill slope, the cops just shook their heads as i drove off, this is the best pic that i have left, wish i'd known back then what i had and looked after it a bit better, oh well.
