Don't do it. You hit someone, an expensive car, damage property, you'll be paying that off yourself. And if you injure someone permanently or something like that, it won't be fun to pay off.

thats because its not THEIR car. Its their parents car etc. *loophole i believe*

Yeah i always see P platers driving turbo as well. Most cops dont care though, its just highway patrol you gotta watch out for.

The family car loophole was closed a while back,you cant use it as an excuse anymore. Theres no way around the restriction other than applying for a stringent exemption.

Damn straight. I wouldn't care about losing my licence or the fine as much as being sued for potentially lots of $$$$$

Its a bitch to get the exemption aswell.

Mate who is a mechanic applied for it saying tha the had to drive turbo'd or v8 cars for work reason. His boss wrote the letter and still got denied.
