How long does it take to arrive?

@@jvong8860 shut up mate
How much u get paid to say that?
@@jvong8860 fuck god hes not real
I have to disagree with the P plates, people see that you've passed so they expect you to have the same sudden knowledge and experience as a person who's driven for 20 years. It's better to just blend in so people don't know. A lot of bullies on the roads, don't wear the freshman sticker.
This 💯💯💯
Unfortunately in Ireland it is mandatory to have N plates for the first 2 years after passing your driving test
@@ciemny9410 I understand, in Britain or the UK it's only mandatory to have L plates when you're a learner. P plates when you've passed are optional here.
In Australia it’s mandatory to have them for 4 years :( red p plates are for 1 year then you change to green for 3 years
L plates and P plates make other drivers do dangerous things. Definitely better to avoid them. I literally stopped using L plates, never ever would of got P plates.
Thanks for all of the kind supportive messages guys, appreciate you all!
You’ve got a really nice car. Keep driving safe 😁
How have you already stall the car? I got vw polo last month and I still haven’t stall. I used to always stall in my instructor corsa. But this vw has a very strong biting point. I thought all new cars will rarely stall?
@@Pit-jt3lw different feel to the Hyundai I practiced in so it felt very different. Took some getting used to but it's all good now.
@@Pit-jt3lw shush lad, why are you so concerned 🤣
@@brandonkaila7435 can I hug you
Pin can’t resist still being the instructor in every way! 😂
How is he still getting lectured 😂😂 love it!
Innit
Like let the guy drive now🤣🤣
😂
Pins gonna show up to his wedding like "you want the ultimate driving course yeh?"
@@barackobama7255 🤣🤣🤣
Loool
It’s great to have more videos with Brandon. A legendary video I say would be a video with both Brandon and Taz in it. That would be epic.
Agreed
Congrats on your first car Brandon! I had my driving test fairly close to when you had yours, bought a new car (a ford as well) a month ago and I’ve loved the videos. The only exception is that I live in Greece. Happy travels man, stay safe!
Hi there I passed my test yesterday on the second time your videos really helped ill be showing yourself to my friends and family who need the info for passing keep up the good work and thankyou very much for the help
I’ve learnt in my instructor’s car and he’s got exactly the same of what you got! It’s a lovely car Brandon! So happy you’ve got your first car!
My instructor has a Focus as well, but ST version, very stiff wheel😂
I got my first car a month ago, didn’t even finance it, just brought for 6.5k. Poor Brandon don’t know what he is doing
Thankyou very much 😁
@@Pit-jt3lw what car did u get? I’m only spending 2.5k on a shitty car so I can get used to driving then I’ll get a better one
@@ambiva bet it feels quick when you stuck your foot down!?😂
Loved this video, so good to see use reunited and Brandon driving his new car after passing was great to see. I would love to see use do a lesson on the motorway. Thank you for sharing ☺️
I'm so happy to see you continuing to make videos with Brandon!
Nice one Pin & Brandon, nice video! And great to see you test-driving your new car Brandon. Look forward to you having some motorway lessons in the future! All the best!
Beautiful car Brand.. I was after a focus at the beginning after passing in December 2021. I came across a vauxhall insignia 2.0 diesel and it's so awesome. It literally feels like 2nd nature now being on the road. Been driving it a week. Congratulations on your first car my friend 👍
I've watched all of them with nostalgia. It took me back to my lessons. My instructor sounded just like Pim. They must all get trained the same way. It took me a lot longer to pass than Brandon and I'm still learning, which is why I watched them in the first place. I love those dingy old industrial estates where they start off on. I couldn't find the handbrake either on my first car. An excellent series. Well done and thanks for making it.
Enjoyed watching your various driving videos and I'm very experienced and just never done car test but did my bike test 11 Yr ago, finally passed my test yesterday 21st March 1st time with only 7 brush up lessons and no minors at all. Thanks for the content.
I passed my test today I really felt your videos and course help so thank you 😊 x
Passed my driving test yesterday! These videos helped me so much thank you !!!
ive recently started learning and i have absolutely no experience with cars and costs as no one around me has ever driven, so this is really helpful and insightful thank you :)
Brandon is a genuine guy and you can tell.
Just passed my test first time and wanted to say thanks your videos helped a lot
I just passed my test first time around an hour ago, 5 minor faults. I am honestly so excited, and so thankful to not only my instructor, but to you. I was watching these videos long before I had even started my lessons, because I am a very panicky person. These videos and your Ultimate Driving Course helped me so much you do not even understand. THANK YOU!
Also, the examiner lady was extremely nice and kept the conversation going to ease any sort of stress, I thank her for that too.
@_ Habibi Yeah I got a little Hyundai i30
@@massapin9293 how’s the car doing?
@@Joetibbles All perfect so far mate
I love watching this. Almost reminds me of getting my first car back in July, haven't stalled it yet after 8 months of being a new driver.
I'm tryna be like you 😎
@@brandonkaila7435 Won't be long before you've got it my dude. Ford gang.
Passed yesterday morning with 1 minor! Same as Brandon passed on my 2nd time, so glad to finally join the ‘Passed but still watches’ crew.
Cheers Pin for all the videos they were a massive help
Finally getting to watch these as part of the passed test club 🤣🤣 failed my test the same week Brandon did in autumn but now finally passed on the 2nd attempt too! Congrats Brandon, your new car looks fab 🎉
Love to see it! You can see how proud Pin is, just beautiful.
Awwww love Brandon, wishing him all the luck with his driving
Congrats Brandon on your new car !
I wanted focus too . Started learning when I was 36 years old , passed at 37 so I'm a bit older driver lol got myself an old fiesta when started learning but after passing I bought Suzuki Vitara which is about same price as your focus . I pay about the same in total for my car , but I'm looking to change to a different insurance company soon as I can get it about 50 pounds cheaper .
Thanks for all the help in your videos, been a great help watching them- just passed last week! I learnt in a car pretty much exactly the same as this one. I never learnt to use the hand-break as you normally would, so I'm working on that now. Also working on getting the gas before the bite.
Lovely car Brandon, looking forward to seeing your motorway videos, the motorway terrifies me now. I'm with you on that bay parking! I never go shopping on a weekend.
Hey Brandon, Thoroughly enjoyed your honesty with getting to drive a new car with Pin providing expert advice and driving tips. I'm sure both your driving confidence and skills have improved since the last video and looking forward to viewing watching your driving experience on the motorway. Happy motoring.😊
Great video, amazing car, safe driving Bran, well done 🌟
I’m so happy for you Brandon!! 😁 I’ve got my driving license last week and I can’t wait till I get my own car!!
Just passed my driving test big thanks to you!!
Aww congratulations brandon ! Your car is beautiful and well deserve!
I passed last july and have an 04 peugeot 206 ! I love my car for a first car but i cant wait to upgrade one day
Love the new focus, good choice. Looking forward to watching some motorway driving
Been watching this channel for awhile but respect 💯 congrats
That a sweet looking car. Still saving for my car after my driving test.
It's good to see Brandon we thought we never see you again after you pass the exam and congrats for your new car stay safe.
Finally part of the passed but still watching gang💯👏🏿 this channel was a massive help
Same here 💪
Congrats 🎆👏👏🎆🎆
So happy for this dude. He worked hard, but it all paid off. Perfect. 😃
Congratulations Brendon. Very nice car indeed. My first and only car is my 2013 Hyundai i10. Got it used in 2015 and we're still going strong. Hope you grow as attached to your car as I have.
I'm loving every minute 😎
The hyundai i series is honestly amazing. For a korean brand thay have really managed to keep up with fords and vw hot hatches. They have allota soul for a car c:
I flipped mine 2 weeks in
not arsed
I got the (older) Ford Focus mk2 for my first car, love it Brandon!
From first lesson to being with the once a learner driver in their new car is amazing
I just passed my test and the ultimate driving course was a huge help. Now looking to get my first car
I can relate to him, I bought a golf for my first car recently and I have stalled quite a few times on a hill trying to get used to the auto parking brake 😅 definitely improves with practice!
When i passed in 2015 i bought (well financed) the same car as what i learnt in which was a ford fiesta 1.0 ecoboost which was great
I know exactly how your feeling Pin. I sat with my ex- student yesterday who also like Brandon has passed and bought her own car. I kept looking for my pedals aswel.
I learnt to drive in a similar ford focus, if you hard press the brake it'll automatically put the handbrake on - saves you messing with the switch!
Ur videos helped me so much, passed first time today!!!!!
I relate to Brandon so much with the parents as passengers thing - my mum's always saying I'm too close to the curb, and dad's very critical of even the most minor mistake.
I drive much better alone or with mates.
I agree so much with this
Yeh my step dad is very critical too 😅
Like if I sit on the clutch a little bit too much it would trigger him 😂
Tell them to do a mock test. I guarantee they have minors. Parent's always contradict
This is literally what I thought just a few days ago when I drove my parents to the mall. Them reminding me in a stern voice how close I am to cars or curbs next to me just made me even more anxious💀. I’m so much calmer and relaxed when I’m driving alone or when I’m driving with someone who doesn’t know how to drive.
Good to see Brandon with is new car enjoying his driving respect 💯👍🥊
Please keep bringing up brandon, such a great lad
It’s a good feelin when you get your first car congratulations brandon🎉🎉
Thankyou 😁
@@brandonkaila7435 you welcome
Congrats brandon 🎉
Way to go 👍
Passed today 5 minors your videos really helped thank you
the car reads the last speed sign it sees for the dashcam - happened during my driving test last week (which i passed!) where at a crossroad the road ahead had a sign saying 20 but i turned right which was a 30 road but no signs came up immediately. so i did 20 on a 30 and got a minor and then i told my instructor after and he explained that the car read the 20 sign and assumed 20 until it saw a 30 sign
Congratulations on the new car Brandon🥰
Brandon also has an automatic brake in this car, when he stops and presses the brake pedal again, the parking brake will be activated, which is useful at traffic lights or while waiting on a hill.
Autohold !
I didn’t know that nice one
Glad my car doesn't have that.
That is autohold not all cars have it
I got my first car six weeks ago. A 2003 Honda CR-V 2.0 Auto and cost me £2,995 (high price due to the current high 2nd hand market) I’m 54 and insurance was £950 (no black box) I had to drive it from Burnley to Manchester on the motorway (no previous motorway lessons) in pouring rain. Talk about thrown in the deep end. But I coped with the pressure really well. I’ve currently done over 400 miles with trips out gaining experience.
Thanks for doing this video. My current instructor has the same auto handbrake thing.
All the best to Brandon, he's very teachable, even after passing he's still is up for some lessons. Nice car too. I passed last week first time with 8 minors. Wasn't easy as I'd been on and off learning for 3 years. So grateful to God, my instructor, my mum and brother for letting me use their car when they weren't busy and these videos Pin, really helpful! for those learning, keep going and don't give up. you will pass! I'm looking for cars now. Any suggestions for a fairly small and cheap car in good condition for a new driver?
Congratulations on passing your test
@@DGNDriving Thank you!
Hey, congrats for the car, I actually have the same car (also as my first car) and I've been using it for a while!
I'm 21 and I also recently got the driving license so it's basically the same situation as yours but in Italy and 4 months later.
Here are some tips for you:
1. Handbrake: you can use it for starting on a hill by holding it UP, and when you release it, it will set OFF automatically. The passenger can also use it to slow down the vehicle in case of an emergency by pulling it UP and keeping it UP until the car is stopped, however you can override it by keep pushing the accelerator. (A lot of cars with electronic handbrake has this feature)
2. Autobrake: it's the button you have under the Handbrake one (it's like this: "(A)"). You can enabling it by pushing it. If it's enabled it will automatically apply the brakes when you are completely stopped and press the brakes harder. When the car is holding the brakes the "(A)" icon will appear on your cluster display and it will release the brakes when you build enough power to overcome the hill you're on (so basically the correct throttle and clutch pedal). It also works when you are not on a hill so you can avoid putting the real handbrake on. Also if the autobrake is holding the brakes and you open the door, unbuckle the driver or turn off the car, it will automatically put your handbrake on.
3. Auto Start/Stop: it's ON by default and it will turn of the engine if you're stopped, the battery is charged enough and the temperature is correct. It will also restart the engine for you if you stall it. You can disable it by pressing the "A" button on the last button on the right of the gear lever. It will automatically disable if you put your car in the Sport mode and it will be more aggressive if you are in the Eco mode (which I probably used one time only)
4. Driving modes: if you put your car in Eco mode the acceleration it's a lot smoother, it will help you to get used to your new car. It's the first button on the right of the gear lever. I usually use Sport mode when I'm entering the highway so I get the best acceleration in case I need it (and it's also funny).
5. De-fogging: if you rotate the A/C temperature to the max (and then rotate it harder to make it click) it will automatically set your A/C settings to the Windshield to quickly de-fog it. When you're finished you can re-click it and it will restore the previous A/C settings.
6. Automatic emergency call: if you pair your bluetooth device and enable the Automatic Emergency Call on the screen, in case of an accident it will connect to your phone, call the emergency services, send the coordinates (and occupants info) to them and open the line for you to speak to them.
Read the manual as it's full of amazing stuff and knowing your car it's only going to help you!
I freaking love this car and I'm sure you will too!
If you need something else don't hesitate to contact me, have a nice day :)
Aaaand sorry for my bad english :D
Fair play mate happy for him, snazzy car, im also doing my lessons and honestly your videos DGN have helped alot for that thankyou
also mate not sure if you'll see this but do you cover the stourbridge area?
@@PrimalBran no
The PARK brake is only for parking on an incline. For holding the car without the brake pedal there is the BRAKE HOLD function. It's not gonna be good for the park brake motors to keep engaging and disengaging
Great car, great video n just wanted to say, i just made my purchase for the drivermedics in black (from the USA) n can't wait to get them! 😁👍
Great find, Brandon! I passed two years ago, my first car (which I still have) is a 56-plate Nissan Micra, BUT it only has 19,000 miles on it which is great for a 16-year-old car! Cost me £1,800. My insurance was £1,400 the first year (no black box, I was 36, my mum named as additional driver). Two years later with no claims, it's £530!
A YEAR!!!???
I’ve passed my test but will enjoy watching these videos
You two have a really good bond too which helps this series with Brandon. Really enjoyed this episode!
Just passed myself in Feb and pick up my Honda Civic 1.5L sport Wednesday cannot wait :)
çøñgråtülātîôñs... on your new car!!! superb video.
Sick first car I'll tell ya that! Congrats
Congratulations, Brandon! I hope that you're enjoying your new car, keep practicing your driving abilities. All the best!
I passed today first time with 2 minors! Your videos have definitely helped. Thank you!
Congratulations!!! Happy for you.
I have my test tomorrow and can't stop talking about it. lol. I've only done about 6 hours of lessons. Lmao!
@@donjols1605 hey! any updates?
@@dragraceworld710 Pleased to say I passed my driving test!!!! 5 minor faults though.... 1 from the tell me question (distance for using a fog light? Ans: 100m), 2 from hesitation at junction, 1 for taking off too early, and the last fault for control while reversing (I did a 2-car length reverse and parked as close to the kerb as I could but examiner said I made him dizzy in split seconds while trying to be really close to the kerb, lol)
Yes very smart a nice first car to have so enjoy all your journeys in that
It’s a lovely first car! Congratulations !
I passed ,2 days ago 🎉.thank you for all tips
thank you for your videos. passed first time today with 4 minors and i couldn’t have done it without your channel!
When you press the foot brake harder you will activate the handbrake , so you don't have to keep pulling the button everytime you want to put the handbrake on :D
I passed around 6 years ago and still remember stall. I'd learned in a diesel Mini and bought a 2.0 petrol Golf. Struggled with biting point 😂😂
I’ve been doing the same thing with parking … I just find a big empty space in the car park. I agree, I found drivers worse when I had P plates, no respect, so I’ve stopped using them now. I also got a new car and people seem to think it’s crazy for a new car, but I wanted something nice and reliable. I think it also encourages you to be more careful.
Got my driving test tommorow wish me luck 👍🏼
Thank u brendon:) driving going well :) i failed my theory but next one August more time study and i know what go be like now :) thank u 4 video :) just need work on few things 😊🙂🏴
I too bought a pair of your driving shoes sooo true they are so comfy they are so good for driving in, and fast delivery got them in two days thanks. 😊
I think same day I passed I pretty much disregarded all the stupid messing around looking round every second parking and that also hate driving with 2 hands on the wheel so that went straight away, it’s pretty much drive however you want once you’ve passed obviously as long as you’re safe !
I wish Ford kept the Focus in Canada but was discontinued back in 2019. What a lovely car, Brandon!
My car costed 2500 and with interest around 1100 (on finance 3600 total) hyundai i20 and my insurance is around 1250 per year. Couldn't think of going for an even more expensive car until iv paid my car off. Been driving since October 2021 and had a minor issue with accidentally scratching paint off another car when forward parking in a bay.
Passed my test 2 weeks ago, driving around in my own car. But this I could not do now lol, taking my driving instructor out 😂
I get wary of some new technologies being put into cars in the name of “quality of life”, but I do like how if the car does stall all you have to do is press the clutch back in to restart the motor. Definitely good for learners who stall and panic just to be able to press down again and continue on without causing a hazard or disrupt the flow of traffic.
Also, Brandon seems like a top bloke, and I know I’m not the only one who would like to see him do some vlogs or youtube of whatever he wants. Whether it’s fitness videos or if he did a roadtrip in his new whip, I would definitely watch. Very nice, polite and non-judgemental, and would definitely succeed in every endeavour he takes :)
Would love a video or something on advice about car buying. Be great to hear some insight.
Sweet!! A little bit over 3 weeks ago that I gotten a 2020 Ford Escape SE in black just after my 2015 Ford Escape SE broke down on me. My sister had to helped me In getting the vehicle and it was paid in full. It is almost liked a Ford Focus. In the states from Ford that can’t get new small cars anymore. Mostly SUVS, trucks, and Mustangs. I used to have a 2005 Ford Focus ZX5 in SES model. All the cars that I used to have were automatic transmission in them. My new Ford Escape is an automatic vehicle. It so easy to drive automatic for me.
Nice to see Brandon again, such a nice decent guy and a funny character. Nice car too great choice of colour. (not a fan of electronic hand breaks tho). I see Pin is still telling you what to do :P Good drive tho, good to see your confidence is growing. Hope to see you on here again soon.
I got a 14 plate Astra (May aswell be 15 plate as it was registered late december) for £2100, 1.6 Diesel and due to the EcoFlex engine it's Tax free. Insurance for the year is about £1300 as a lump sum. It took about 2 weeks of looking at cars to find this so it's definitely doable, just have to give the cars a good check and walk away from any red flags.
ahaha this was fun to watch!
Take care Brandon
I was 35 when I started my lessons but due to Scottish lockdowns, I had to wait to do my driving test. I passed my driving test in June 2021, aged 37. When I started learning, I had 2004 Honda Jazz for private practice but I bought a Hyundai i20 (same as Pin's instructor cars) in August.
Having the 2004 Jazz for 2 years helped bring down my car insurance. I now have multicar insurance with my husband so saving a considerable amount.
I was summoned for jury duty the week after I passed. So I had to drive on the motorway. It was a little daunting but not too bad as, on my test route, I had to drive on a 70 mph dual carriageway. When I first started driving, I found it weird not having my husband in the car giving me instructions hehe.
Nothing like the freedom of having your own car. Nice car, Brandon!
no one gives a shit
Congrats!! You deserve it :)
23 Sunday my daughter is 6 Sunday happy birthday bro 👍 my wife just had the hyundai kona electric 33k it's so nice
Really nice car congrats, only thing is with it being a diesel keep an eye on the DPF, if it doesn’t get a good blast out at 70 every now and then it’ll clog up and be an expensive fix.
Congratulations. Worth test driving a MK 7.5 Golf to see what you think.
What a great looking first car! 😍
Nice car tbf mate , would love something like this for my first car
