Hi lookin 4 c1 training in north east or yorkshire area and approx cost and timescale of training

2

There is Tockwith that many people go with or i went with L + T Transpory training services down at Fitzwilliam Near Pontefract.

I cant fault them on anything.
took me 3 days to pass my test but think they average on 4 days but go down for an assesment and then go from there.

I would say good prices aswell but if your stuck for places to go for training there is an approved trainer list on the forums which are good aswell.

B+E is usually much cheaper than LGV C1 or C especially when you include all the medical and theory costs

If you can find a trainer who uses a 5 tonne van for C1 then that might be a little cheaper than if they use a 7.5 tonner but that means you will not get the experience of a 7.5

Remember that you will need Mod 2 and Mod 4 if you are aged 18, 19 or 20 even for private use.

If there is the slightest chance that you may want CAT C at some point in the future, the best advice has to be to go for CAT C straight away.

But if you want to stick at C1, then to use a trainer with a Daily/Sprinter type vehicle makes perfect sense.

It’s well worth ringing round for prices for C1 - you will find quite a big variation.

All the best, Pete :laughing: :laughing:

Not correct Peter

Those aged 18 to 21 need the initial for anything over 7.5

7.5 has always been aged 18 and that did not change

Might be a good idea to give him some cost comparison to do cat c , so he can make an informed decision to doing c or c1
