Areas We Cover

Before your First Drive.

Do I have to book a full course?

No. Start with the 2-hour £100 session, experience the tuition and then decide whether to continue.

Will an example programme get me to test standard?

The hours shown are examples. Everyone starts at a different level and learns at a different pace, so they are not a promise of test readiness.

Can we arrange an early start or collection?

Early starts, flexible scheduling and collection or drop-off can be discussed by arrangement. Enquire about your preferred times and location.

YOUR FIRST DRIVE

Two hours. £100.
Your decision after that.

Meet your instructor before committing to the rest of your course.
