Q: My driving instructor has let me down and my driving test is tomorrow can you accommodate this?
A: Yes we can, in 99% of cases we can accommodate for your driving test even on the same day within a few hours sometimes, in busier areas such as London we can have a driving instructor and fully insured car ready for you in hours.
If in doubt please call us.
Q: will the driving instructor pick me up from work / home ?
A: Yes, we pick you up from the address you give us as long as it’s not more than 5 miles away from the test centre (London) Or 10 miles away in any other area, we also drop you back after the driving test.
In the worst cases driving test candidates have met our instructors outside driving test centres (1 hour prior to test start time) then after the test the test candidate will need to make their own way back home.
Q: How much does it cost and what do I get?
A: You get approximately 1 hour practice before the driving test start time on the day of the test, this gets you used to the car and the driving instructor will answer any questions and give you some vital advice before your driving test, total price £135 for Manual car & instructor, £145 for automatic car and instructor + full driving test insurance but we always like to offer our customers the lowest price so please contact us if in any doubt.
Q: what car will I be using for my practice lesson and test?
A: this depends on the available instructor at the time of your test, cars range from a small VW Polo to a larger Mercedes-Benz A class and that’s still fairly small, fully insured and have dual pedals fitted. Dual controlled car.
Q: Will the driving instructor be approved?
A: Yes, all have been approved and have obtained a criminal record disclosure certificate so your in safe hands.
Q: what are you payment options?
A: 4 options, card over the phone, bank transfer, PayPal or use the link “Buy Now” at the bottom of any of our website pages, and no full payment is required.
Q: what happens if the driving instructor don’t show up on my driving test day?
A: this has never happened but we would refund you in full any monies you paid us and rebook the driving test for you.
Q: Do I have to pay the full amount upfront to book a car & driving instructor for my driving test with test car 1?
A: No, you only make a small part payment and the remainder is paid direct to the instructor on the day of the test before the initial practice drive.
Q: What if my driving is not at a safe standard?
A: Unfortunately the driving instructor would refuse your test and no refund will be given, all driving test candidates are expected to be at a safe level of driving.
Q: what if I book with you and change my mind and want a refund?
A: unfortunately we can’t offer any refunds on your part payment as we do a lot of work to arrange an instructor for your test day.
