A BA XT Sedan is classed as a High Powered 6 Cylinder. So you better go see vicroads

This link takes you to the new laws on what vehicles are prohibited.

http://www.arrivealive.vic.gov.au/c_youngGLS_9a.html

There doesnt seem to be anything that would suggest that you cant drive the XR6 unless it has been modified.

youll know its infact a fast car when you wrap in around a pole like other p platers who drive big fords or holdens. thats a pretty senseless and disrespectful attitude to have. what the hell is the point of the turbos? so you can go faster and kill someone? hes a young kid, only 16 or 17, dont give him such ideas.
the xr6 is a nice smooth car to drive, and any car that can go 0-100 in under 10 seconds or over 150km/h is fast.
Its pretty sad reading on these forums, p plate little boys with hardly any driving experience wanting huge power. thats why the laws are in place, because you dont deserve to drive high powered cars.

its fine to have a high powered car when you are on your p's, l's or if you are 10 years old not leagely of course, however, the way you drive that car can put you in the "you are going to get written off" list.

mate every time iv seen you post on this forum it has been negative and pretty much ridiculous.
you are saying my mums piece of crap au wagon is a fast car.
it is stock as a rock with hubcaps and is running like a fat kid towards veggies. (slow as buggery)

it goes 0-100 in under 10 seconds easy.
in your way the only car we should be allowed to drive is a mini. or a bettle.

Yeah, what an awesome idea! / end sarcasm
Lets all get an EA 3.3 column auto to drive for 3 years, and when we dont know how to get out of hairy situations, or know how to overtake/merge...
Then how many will get hungry for more power, jump into a 190kw BF XT and not know how to drive it because of that extra power on tap?
