When Giving Directions...

1800 is for the required driving lessons + test. No need for renewal because it's a license for life (unless taken away ldo)

[antidan444]

Are there any other fees associated with owning a car/driving one that you have to pay every 'x' years?

If not, a one-time 1,800 euro fee isn't so bad.

[antidan444]

I can't believe I just wrote that.

Coming up with $75/$100 every 5 years is MUCH easier than 1,800 Euros = $3700ish once, yes?

I can think of one time in my life where I had that kinda money, and it's because I was buying a house.

[antidan444]

Holy crap 1,800 euros is $3,700?! I had no idea the dollar had fallen THAT freaking far. Wow. Jesus, that's going to influence my vote.

TÜV every two years to check if the car is still ok dunno how much it costs but maybe 40 Euro.
One time registration fee for getting a license plate of like 10 Euro.
+ taxes (both on the ownership of the car + on gas) + insurance ldo
taxes are between 6 and 40 Euro/year per 100cm*cm of displacement depending how environment friendly the car is

[antidan444]

OK nevermind 1,800 euros is way too much.

I've never owned a car in my life but own drivers licenses on two continents

How could you?

The license fee steals your downpayment.

I notice when a girl wears little-to-no makeup, but I rarely think anything of it. If anything I think cool, a girl who doesn't wear a ton of makeup...at least I won't be surprised in the morning
