getting licence is fairly cheap in UK, it is paying for driving lessons and the test that is expensive.
In one of my lessons at 6th form there are 11 people and only 2? maybe 1 can't drive, and out of the 9/10 that can drive 9 have there own car, so a high propertion. Must be a fair bit more expensive or hard where you live, or people are just less interested in driving.
edit, nice car boyi, what about yours or has your little bro beaten you into the driving world

lol, by the time you have spent enough time in UK to learn english rules etc and paid for the test, i'm sure it would be cheaper to do it in your country
Total cost for a test in UK is around £60-£80 as test is £40, but then you have to pay £20 to use the car for an hour, and usually you pay £20 for an hours lesson before the test.

@kristaga, what is that volvo like to drive, it looks like an APC. Prob one of the best vehicals i've seen to cope with what the roads must be like in sweeden, or are they well gritted to stop them becoming covered in snow and ice.
Explain the term "APC" for me.
It is very nice to drive, but is is no race car. Of course, it is not meant to be either. Maximum speed should be around 110 km/h, but is handles best around 70. 80 to 90 is no problem of course, but the fuel consumption rises very much when the speed exceeds 70.
The roads in Norway (and the rest of the Nordic countries) have asphalt (black-top) cover, but of course get covered in snow and ice during winter time. The snow is moved away, but a layer will always remain. So we use special winter tires with or without studs. On extreme conditions lorries and buses put on snow chains to increase traction.
My car can cope on most every road condition. I have driven in water up to the bumper (60 cm) while crossing/fording a river, and driven in 70 cm of old snow (partly floating on the snow). Fresh snow driving has almost no limit.
A photo I took of it the last summer (the first image captured with my T610 in fact):

An APC is an armoured personnal carrier, what the army would use to transport troops to and from the battle line.
looks like it is a bit of fun to drive, and not too much of a concern if you hit another car
only joking.
