Our regular training course is 14 hours 1:1 for CAT C and 16 hours for CE. This allows a bit more time to get confident with the reversing and coupling/uncoupling.
Time on driving test is in addition to this.
Whether or not 14 hours is sufficient depends, to a great extent, on the quality of the training. In our case, all instructors are fully trained, registered and NVDIR qualified. None of this is a legal requirement and few “instructors” have followed that route. Our CAT C vehicles are all purchased new and their average age is 2 years. New vehicles are purchased each year to stay up to date. We had the first private driving test centre in the UK. Our centre features 2 reversing areas, both correctly marked and both used for driving tests. Our customer service team is second to none and it is their task to look after our valued customers every step of the way.
Generally, we’re not the cheapest. But look at the offers above and decide if we really are expensive!
My advice to everyone considering training is not to concentrate on price - though it’s obviously a factor. Have a look at the quality. And, if having a good training experience is important to you, make a decision on what you see. I frequently encourage folks to ask about us on the forum; we have nothing to hide. Better still if you’re able to visit. No appointment needed - just turn up.
Good luck, Pete
