Q) How does your course work?
Once a deposit has been paid, you and your instructor agree a start date, normally a Monday. The instructor picks you up from your chosen pick up point every day. The in-car training would be done during the week, Monday to Friday (3 - 6 hrs per day). The exact daily times are agreed when the driving instructor calls and books you in. Please do not book any time off work until you have spoken and agreed the dates and times with your instructor.
If a theory test is required, we book it for you normally Monday or Tuesday afternoon, so that you take it after your lesson that day with the instructor.
The in car training continues daily to use your hours up, and we get the quickest possible driving test, ideally for Friday PM at your local driving test centre. The final 90 minutes of all standard driving test courses is for hiring the car to take the driving test using the driving instructor's vehicle. The DVSA do not provide cars so you will need to use your driving instructors vehicle.
Q) The waiting list for a driving test in my area is 2 to 3 months away, how do you get one for the end of my course?
Quite simply we have a team of staff who will find you an extremely short notice driving test, while our instructors are busy teaching, we are busy doing the admin. Most driving schools cannot have this system because they are one person teaching during the day, they have very little time to actually access the DVSA website or call them. There are cancellations all the time at the local test centres, several per week get cancelled and rebooked by other pupils, you just need someone doing the hard work to find them before anyone else snaps them up for you - that will be us!Most driving schools or driving instructors will tell you that you cannot get a test before 3 - 4 months away, and that is true on the normal waiting list, but they won't have a team of people online and on the phones all day. That's what we do! Over 90% of courses have a test on the expected final day. Those few that run over by a few days for whatever reason, finish off within a few days, still 2 - 3 months quicker than the normal test waiting time.Q) Are the test fees included in the priceA) Yes - all prices we quote include the test fees, we book them for you. You can book in with your own tests already booked, we just remove the fees off the total cost.Q) Do you help with theory revision?A) There are around 1000 questions in the theory question database, so you're looking at a lot of revision time. We recommend at least 30 hours, and that is only 2 minutes per question! For practical reasons we will give you free access to the premium version of the theory test pro website, so you can study online at home or on the go, with your smartphone via the website or app. Our driving instructors will be happy to assist with the theory in the car too if you need help, just ask. We can go through more complex questions with you, which will boost your chances of passing the theory test when you take it. It would take us hours and hours to cover everything once, so that is why we give you free access to the revision website.
Q) What if I fail my theory test?
The driving instructor will continue to train you and get you up to the best possible standard within the hours we have arranged with you that week, we will then either book the theory test for you again (£35, includes cancellation finding service) for late in the same week (if possible) or the following week, it all depends on local theory test availability, or for £25 you can rebook it yourself on the standard waiting list on GOV.UK, and check for cancellations yourself, and we will await you to contact us once you have passed the theory. You have to wait 2 clear working days if you fail a theory test before you can take another one. The instructor will normally save the final few hours to finish off once the theory is passed if necessary. If you are at a safe standard and can take your driving test once the theory is passed, we will book your practical test for you as soon as you pass the 2nd theory test.
Q) What if you cannot get me a test for the Friday?
Most of our pupils want a course at extremely short notice, so we have to work off the DVSA system to get you a cancellation slot for the Friday, much quicker than the standard waiting list which can be 4 months or more. We aim to get you a cancellation at your local test centre, or one reasonably close (with your permission) so you can have some practice hours in that area during the course. If we cannot get you a practical test for Friday then we will offer you the first available slot, which would typically be early the following week. However it falls, you won't be waiting weeks and weeks. Your driving instructor will save a few hours back in order for you to finish up early in the second week. 95% of our courses are done by early the following week, if not on the Friday.
If you need a 100% guarantee of a driving test for a Friday the only way this is possible is to pass your theory test first about 3 months before beginning a driving course, then for us (or you) to book a driving test on the official booking website, on the normal waiting list here at GOV.UK, but you may have to book your course 3 months advance, on the normal DSVA waiting list at the back of the queue.ats not practical so we are the next best thing.
Q) What if I fail the practical test?
No driving instructor in the country can guarantee you a pass 1st time, we do try our best and the majority of the time people pass. If you are unlucky or just make one silly error with just a few minor faults then you will be able to rebook with us (call us straight away). The DVSA allow another test to be sat only after 10 working days have passed, so you can rebook with us immediately and we will search for a retest as soon as on the 10th working day. You probably will only need to arrange a couple of hours practice prior to the second test. If you fail with lots of minor faults or more than one serious or dangerous fault, then it may be necessary for you to evaluate your driving skills. You may need to arrange another few hours to fix these errors in your driving before taking another driving test. Learning to drive is expensive to most people, but it is ridiculously more expensive if you keep going in for practical tests when you aren't ready.
FREE RETEST OFFER:
If you book a 5-hour retest course through our website WE WILL PAY THE TEST FEE for a standard weekday driving test, saving you the £62 if you had booked it yourself.
We should get you another driving test around 2-3 weeks after the last one, reducing the cost of the course by £62.
Q) I have booked my own test and/or just require weekly lessons leading up to my test, can you help?
IWe can, please book a course or weekly lessons and let us know our test time and date and we will accommodate it.
Q) Can I realistically pass in one week?
Yes! if you have arranged enough practice hours in the week, you pass your theory test and we can get you a test for the Friday and you pass it, then you will have your license! Sometimes it may take a few days longer as we depend on finding cancellations in your local area, unless you book your driving test on the normal waiting list, well in advance.
Q) I have passed my theory test, is it cheaper?
If you have passed your theory test then you will not have to pay the theory test fee (£35). Our prices include the cost of the practical driving test, we just add on £35 if you need us to book you a theory test.

Q) Do I have to pay extra for my test day?
Not for an intensive driving course - the DVSA do not provide cars so you will need use your instructor's vehicle. If you are taking an extended test or live quite far from the test centre, a little more than the last hour would be required for taking the test and taking you home at the end of the course.

call us and ask a few more then please don't hesitate.
Q) Do you offer a 'guaranteed pass' course, OR free retest?
I'm afraid nobody can 100% guarantee you will pass a test first time, we just charge you for 1 theory test and 1 driving test in your initial payment. Some companies may offer 'free' retests or something similar, but you'll generally pay more in the initial payment, then they will pay for extra tests if needed. Some companies may offer 1, some may offer unlimited free retests, with strict terms and conditions you have to abide by. We have a good pass rate so most customers wouldn't benefit from a more expensive 'guaranteed pass' type course. If you fail either theory or practical test 1st time we will book you the quickest possible retest so that you can continue your course, but you will pay the test fee.
Q) Where are you based?
Our calls are taken at our office in Greater Manchester, but we have many instructors nationwide, registered to teach courses for us, who offer a door to door service from your home, college or work. In London we sometimes have to agree a meeting point if travel becomes an issue to the instructor.
Q) Are your instructors fully qualified?
All of our course instructors have qualifed as ADI instructors, we will not provide you with a trainee or unqualified instructor. All driving instructors are CRB checked every time they renew their 'green badge' - the license to teach.
