    Yup, and make sure that all the lights, indicators etc are working properly, know all the controls, and checks under the bonnet, and of course, know the rotr.
    also should my brakefluid oil coolant all be at max or is it ok once there above the min mark?
    Anywhere between min and max is grand.
    should i indicate off mini roundabouts ?
    Yup, just treat them as a normal roundabout.
    should i go into 5th gear on 60kmh roads or is it a bad idea ?
    No, generally speaking you should only go into fifth gear to maintain a spped of 50 miles per hour or above.
    Also if im on a road that has ramps that are a good bit apart should i go to th gear after a ramp the back to 3rd befor the next one or just stay in 3rd , i was told never hit a ramp in 4th thanks

    You should go over a bump in 2nd, unless its a low bump (as is often the case with zebra crossings. You should go back into third after, and if they are very spaced out, you may go into fourth (if the conditions allow it). Remember, you can drop from 4th to 2nd in the one movement if you want (ie 4th-> 3rd->2nd, NOT 4th->2nd !!!!)
    You should never hit a bump in 4th.


    Good luck in the test :). Don't forget to let us know how you get on!
