    Most expensive P plater car

    What's the most expensive P plater car you've seen driving on the road?

    (By themselves so most likely not in their parents car.)

    Re: Most expensive P plater car

    When you said "by themselves so most likely not in their parents car", do you mean it isn't their parents car or do you mean parents aren't with them at that moment.

    Mostly likely, it's mercedes, E class and BMW 5 series.

    I've driven my parents Mercedes E350 out alone haha.

    Re: Most expensive P plater car

    I've seen a few E60's around the place but out of my friends, I think the best is a e92 330d convertible or the current E class convertible. Next best would be my mates with 135i's with exemptions.

    Re: Most expensive P plater car

    My Sister's friend received an Aston Martin V8 Vantage (2008) for his 21st Birthday. Second hand, but still quite expensive.Had Green P's for 3-4 months on it I believe.

    Also seen a Bentley Continental GT in work parking lot with Green P's. Always parked next to a Rolls Royce with similar number plate, so I'm assuming family?

    I don't think P platers are allowed to drive cars with W12 engines? I thought V8 and over was banned.

    Anyway, my neighbors drive their parents Audi Q7 and Chrysler 300C around......I drive my parents Toyota Prado haha :P

    His father is David Teoh, CEO of TPG Australia. I guess 350k is like spare change when your family wealth is over $488 million.

    Fair enough. Forget the Aston itself though: insurance for a car like that in that hands of a 21 yo male would be almost 6 figures! That said they probably just got 3rd party on it.
