Hello ,welcome and congratulations on passing the test Kane 
Hope you realize that you have only learned the basics of car control and hopefully you will not fall into bad habits like so many do so quickly.
May I suggest that you undertake additional training and instruction like a defensive driver training course then a skid pan day.as young drivers are in the main overconfident and tend to take risks.
You may want to join a car club that runs events to build up your skill level by entering events they organise.
Do not mod your car as that will drive the insurance costs sky high so keep it stock drive safely and build up your insurance history.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
I am looking at doing my pass plus and a few other things to help me get more car control and confidence.
Car clubs didn't even cross my mind but i'll look into it now as its a very good idea thank you.
Im looking at a few mods at the moment but I know they will hike my insurance up and tbh dont have the money either for them but want to make the car abit more personal in time with a few cosmetic mods and maybe a new exhaust.
