3:15 ''I stress too much'' - I would not add the distraction of talking to a camera while driving if you're lacking confidence - that said since you're wondering, a Citroen C1 tank capacity is 35 litres, so about £50 to fill up from empty. I agree it's one of the best cars to start driving, just be aware of road bullies out there. You will feel more confident as you add more miles to your driving experience.

Safe journey.

Great video! The blindspots mirror seems genius move, never heard of those before, good one!

Congratulations and welcome to the roads. Try and keep calm, there are a lot of idiots around. It's not worth getting angry with them.

[gravemind]

Citroen C1, Peugoet 107 and Toyota Aygo all have a really high clutch even brand new ones it takes more getting used to than most cars. Imposter syndrome is normal for awhile.

This came up as a recommendation, iv been looking at a C1 as a 2nd car
Speaking as a 53 year old, you never forget your 1st car
Happy driving Holly 🚗

Hi! Congratulations on passing the test and getting the car :D I passed my driving test last December and I’ve been driving for a few months now and I just have to say you’ll get used to the your car and sharing the road with other people very quickly so don’t stress too much. You can do it!

My nineteen year old niece passed her test last year, my heartiest congratulations to you! 😀👏👍

[BaldwinChua]

Hi Holly. Happy and excited for u on your first car

[Ruby-ntlf]

i've recently passed my test and i have a peugeot 107! but i'm the same with the imposter syndrome, it just feels so weird being on the roads hahah but i'm sure we'll get the hang of it :)

[gabriel-xpur]

congrats on the new car! i wish in america they taught standard first before driving a automatic. when i bought my first standard car i was 40 minutes from home and I had to learn to drive on my way back lol

[HoneyLeigh]

Ah I’m happy for you! I just passed yesterday so I’m on the hunt for a car :)

As a novice driver, I learned to use the gas a bit more to avoid stalling.

[Bubbles-ef]

I have the same car in baby blue 😊, recently passed and I find it easier to press the gas before finding the bite as less likely to stall and will be a lot smoother pulling away, it’s taken me a long time to get used to it tho.

Holly, that was wonderful to join you today in your C1 car, before you know it you'll be able to go near or far. Without making mistakes plus your driving stress will leave you, allowing you total freedom to do whatever you want to do! While just now you've to think about what you've to do, in a few weeks I guarantee it'll all become second nature to you! And while I know I shouldn't say this here, I feel I'm compelled too, it's though your C1's really very nice, it's not half as nice as ..go on, I'll give you one guess at what the missing word is! It's super easy to guess it, and me, well I've got every confidence, in 'you!' ;-) I. Shane. G. 🙂

i find it funny how everyone is thought to find a bite, but after driving for 2 months alone you figure out it dosent matter just need to step on the gas a bit and ur golden :D

[carlostavares]

Congrats. Good luck and try to show the pedals too while drive. Have a nice day!

[Johnjones]

Brilliant video Holly!! Really enjoyed everything about it :) If possible in the future, could you do a video revving up your car? So we can hear how it sounds!! 😄

[BUCKET_BOY]

i think YT knows I'm looking at buying my first car with this recommendation. nice car, im looking at Mazda mx-5.

[Maj-SHIPWRECKED]

how have i ended up here 🤣. Who is this fascinating Holly bod

[bradleyoliver]

Love this i brought a 2012 C1 in December i have been learning to drive with a friend quite different to my instructors fiesta, got my test in a few weeks hoping to pass first time and get out there on my own to keep building confidence with the car my bite is quite high normal on these apparently at first i hated it but just had to get used to it feels really nice to drive now im not so nervous about the high bite now I'm more comfortable with it the gear stick also doesn't feel the best quality but you get what u pay for a first car. Do you mind disclosing how much ur insurance was i have been quoted £1250 black box and 1330 without black box. Your smashing it tho great job good drive!
