    No, but if anyone tries to charge you over £20 an hour tell them where to go.

    RE: Driving Lessons. Why the cheapest.

    Why the cheapest.

    You may go for the cheapest and find you have a trainee Driving Instructor. Pay a couple of quid a week dearer (not even a bottle of Bud) and you get someone with 20 years experience. His/her experience could save you maybe 7 or 8 lessons and a 1st time pass instead of a third.

    False economy. Go with an instructor who has been recomended to you.

    not always the case trainee driving instructors are sometimes better as they are fresher and eager to help drivers more been in the industry i agree get someone you are rec but even then you dont always agree with the person that recomends them.
    Also you have to ask yourself why are the companys doing cheap lessons its not always a matter of a trainee instructor.

    Its trial and error tbh but if you wait till october i will learn you!

    I haven't got a choice

    I've been told I've got to go with some old bloke called Al who taught my mum and two sisters. Dunno how much he costs like.

    I'm already doing my car up and I haven't even turned 17 yet, just my luck if it takes me a year to pass.

    RE: I haven't got a choice

    Yes of course. Just keeping it the same colour, flat red/burgandy. Didn't know whether to have the metallic version of it put on. Couldn't decide.
