Being a P Plater is a state of mind.
Symptoms:
Delusional Traits -
You believe you have Engineering abilities because you can wield a zip tie and duck tape.
You are sure fitting enough BA parts will actually rewind your odometer.
Your try to convince others that your tyres arent bald, they are special racing retreads.
You keep adding layers of bodgey tint in an attempt capture that "Gansta Pimp" Look. You consider fitting Jaycar Sonar to navigate during the night as you cant see Jack.
You tell your peers that your car is "dumped" when in reality you have sold your springs for fuel money, and replaced them with Milo Tins.
Hallucinations -
You can sense the boost from your electric supercharger.
When you are Black Flagged and ejected from the McDonalds Superdrome aka drive thru lane, for excessive smoke and a loose bumper, you complain to the Race Stewards aka McDonalds Manager.
When your engine bay catches alight, you try and convince the police that it came that way from the factory. They believe you and leave.
Physical Traits -
You can be seen lingering near the canon muffler aisle of supercheap, dreaming of what could be, then purchase that 6 pack of degreaser and a new head gasket, remembering what is.
Treatment
A Regular income and an actual savings plan.
Prognosis
Without treatment the E Series owner will continue to fix his vehicle until no stock parts remain, however the value of the vehicle will never increase to a level higher then the owners next happy meal purchase, minus the value of the free toy.
