I passed my test third time. I didn"t have to buy my first car, because Lancashire County Cricket Club had a deal with Lookers Rover and you paid one per cent of the car"s value per month on a rent, so it was like 150 per month, and another 33 for insurance. But they wouldn"t give you a 220 Turbo. So I had 216 Coupe, in blue. At 17 years old. I was the nuts. I didn"t drink, so I used to take my mates home and I"d get stopped by the police in Preston every night without fail. Because in Preston, that car, a 1.6 Rover, was the equivalent of driving a McLaren in Chelsea. I swapped it for a Cabrio, but they"d sent the wrong car it was purple instead of blue, so I had that for about three months, then I got a pay rise and I stretched myself to a 620ti. That was a car. And then someone went in the back of it when I was on my way to a team game in Cheadle. So I couldn"t play that day because of whiplash, but I got a grand for whiplash and taped the boot up.
