Member LGVTrainer is Flair training
One lucky member of this site has just won a free LGV course with them 
There are several good trainers on this site and your choice should be based on more than just price and/or location.
We seldom take a booking without a good chat to the candidate to find out his exact circumstances and what he/she needs the licence for. That way we can tailor the course contents to match the persons needs.
We also always advise having a free, no obligation trial drive to further ensure the course length matches the current ability of the driver.
It is important to choose a trainer you will be comfortable with as you only get 1 chance to get it right.
Please PM with any questions you have and provide a few details ie when you passed car test etc and we will do our best to get you through the processes involved.

i have tried to pm you John but it will not allow me. do the prices on your website include vat
I happen to know that those prices are inclusive - not a good idea to give prospective clients a sudden shock with extra costs!
As ROG says all prices shown are fully inclusive. There are no hidden surprises in the costs.
It is important that people know exactly what the price is and what you can expect for that price. Before taking a booking we send a detailed itemised quote so that people know what is included. Any optional items ie accommodation, Tacho card, CPC etc are also shown.

Excellent advice from John.
Unfortunately some people are blinkered by price alone. It’s very important to know what your getting for your money.
Listen to the trainers on here and you will be fine.

James,
I’ve just checked your forum permissions, but I’m not seeing a problem which would stop you from sending a PM.
Did you get any kind of error message?
I’m not sure whether you know, but you need to fill in the ‘subject’ line and compose a message, then press submit.
Here’s a link for you to try:

Please let us know whether you meet with success in sending a PM??
Good luck with your training and tests.
To add to what Dave has said above, be aware that when you send a PM it stays in your out-box until the recipient reads the PM.
The reason I’m mentioning this is because some people have been under the impression that PMs have not been sent because they don’t leave the out-box, but it will disappear from your out-box once it’s read by the message recipient.

That’s absolutely spot-on, and I forgot to mention it. ^^ 
I passed with Flair last Jan all I can say is that John is very quiet spoken with a lot of good advice very good training easy going
Not interested in what he has done but what he can do for you & how to get you through the test but also how to drive "not just learn to pass test "
Best advice is go meet him have a chat an assessment drive he will be fair & honest but also look at a few more in the area go visit them before parting with money as would you buy a car without looking at it first 
I have had experience with other trainers before going to John so this is my personal experience
He will help you as much as possible
I passed my cat c in September (only 3 minors), driver CPC in September (100%) and my cat c+e in nov (only 2 minors). All training was done with Flair and I couldn’t recommend them enough. I had both trainers, Andy and John, and both are great. Would suggest you contact them and go for an assessment drive. You won’t be disappointed.
Will add my recommendation as well - I passed C & CE with John in Feb & March 2012, and felt I learned a lot - not just how to pass the test.
Think I might even still be featured on the website!

Hi Gary
Happy new year. You are indeed still featured on the website at flairtraining.co.uk/PDF/The_ … _Story.pdf
Hope all is going well in the new career. Please let us know if you hear of anyone willing to take on newly qualified guys
I was lucky enough to win my first part of my HGV training with Flair training through a christmas competition on here. Managed to have a chat with John before new year to explain what would be happening and the stages which I would be going through, and seemed like a nice enough guy. So I can’t say so far on the training side of things just yet but experiences so far have been positive 
Cheers

I’m sure you’ll have a favorable review after passing…and you could always decline the goodwill payment in return

I will be, I’m just wanting to get on with it now as the sooner I get my Cat C the sooner I can find work driving ( And move onto my C&E!)
But well it’s a chance people rarely get, so certainly happy I was one of the few who got it…although I’m glad no one was around to see me when I found out I had won 
Cheers

■■■■ me! What is this? The John Dawson fan club? John Dawson who is connected with Flair training has an interesting past to say the least! Many people who parted with substantial amounts of cash never saw it again after passing it to companies this man was involved in.
Just for balance you understand…

Many of us have a past which some of us are not proud of
On his current venture (Flair) I have not come across any problems on any site
