I think it's low just because he has to be supervised. I expect it'll be 4 or 5 times that when he passes and will be out on his own.
He won't be anything like me - he a steady lad and his car will be for getting him from A to B and he'll probably keep it until it falls apart. Best I get him in a nice 1.6 ZS to begin with eh ...
