Driving lessons

This is my last car post, whats a decent price to pay and a repuatble school to learn with?

I've been quoted everything from £10 - £30 an hour.

ps. Amy/Fidds I am not baiting and there is no racist content in the above post.

I went with an independent instructor who advertised in the back of the free Gateshead Herald

Was only £6.50 an hour. That was about 8 years ago though!

Don't think it matters if you go with a reputable/big company or just an unkown independent, as long as you get on with the guy teaching you. Have a few with different people/companies and see who you like best.

I used Discover Driving about five years ago. I would definitely recommend them.

My mam charges £50 for the first 5 lessons, and can do further discounts on further block bookings. I think it's about £15 thereafter but I'm not completely sure :fart:

Happy finish after an emergency stop?

Aarrggh I really need to learn to drive.

It's been my new years resolution every year since I was 17 (now 21) and I'm putting it off because I completely resent the idea of spending something which a) I will hate and b) I will be shite at.

I'd do an intensive

Much better way to do it.

Dont use Jowetts!

I went with the AA. Brilliant instructor, good -6mnth old cars, a little pricey but I found them to be really worth it.

Mary Ashby are the best without a shadow if a doubt, everyone i know passed first time with them

do you recommend this mate, long did it take yo if you done it

Took me 3 days, but i was given 2 weeks

An intensive test really relies upon your ability to take things in all at once. If you're the kind of person who knows you're gonna be shit etc then it may not be the best idea to go with an intensive.

If I were you I'd get about 5-10 lessons spread over a month. While you're doing these lessons book your theory test, get that outta the way. Then book your practical test. keep getting the lessons you already paid for and then get about 10 lessons in the week before your test (2 hours per day).

It's no good getting one lesson a week. You waste loads of money donig this.

what about HENRY FORDS personal driving instructions not sure of the price like

you seem bitter about something Jim

Pay £17 p/hr for mine like

all the local instructors are £17 but they're on the poverty line I reckon I can get them down to £12

i wont be bitter soon enough

whys that?
