I didn't notice any problems, a nice clear run with no hold ups.

Nice drive infact, only criticism would be trying to mount the pavement at 1:04 but then again the reflection in the window shows you fiddling with something so prob distracted her. That means its your fault

But I thought she drove really well.

Maybe girls are better drivers

girls ??? . Sheila will be most impressed calling her a girl , that video is the second of three 5 minute vids , I thought she drove quite well considering she hadn't drove for about 8 months and had never drove my car before .... might post the very first video as she tries to get out of the hospital car park , with me trying very hard not to say anything ... yeah she gets very close to the kerb , quite scarey at times , but she will get used to it .

at the end of that vid , it shows her quickly coming up behind a lorry ,the next vid shows her overtaking it , now I did panic a bit as a car was coming towards her , but she did the pass quite well .

well Peter, if anything you have shown Shiela to be a perfect driver. For a start (and I am comparing her driving to yours) she is driving at a sensible speed with control and poise. Whereas you, well, the video would have looked sped up....

I think she did very well considering she hasn't drove for a long time , and was driving a " complicated " car ( her words ) .... its a semi automatic
