LGV Training Manchester

First off hello to everyone, I’m new here.

I’m looking to get my lgv cat c and c/e, I live in Manchester. I’ve seen Enterprise Lgv about a bit and also noticed it’s listed on this forum as a decen training provider. I wanted to know if anyone on here has ever used them and if they’re any good. I’d also like to know when I get my cat c c/e will it entitle me to drive c1 c1/e?

Thanks in advance

Hiya Murray and welcome to TNUK. Enterprise are listed on the recommended training providers LGV TRAINING TIPS [Reworked 01/02/2022] (Read only) - #5 by rog - NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE) - Trucknet UK along with a few other trainers local to Manchester. As for C/CE allowing you to drive c1/c1e the answer is yes :smiley:

C1 is a subcategory of C
C1+E is a subcategory of C+E

If not done so already please have a look at all the stickies in this forum

Redrose. they’re at Bolton now. You won’t be disapointed.

Is it possible to pass with 16 hours of training?

I know where red rose is :slight_smile: work takes me to europa way now and then.

Yes - a lot depends on the capability of the trainee and the trainer

I recommend red rosé at Bolton passed cat c in november doing c+e on waggon and drag January with them also booked adr and cpc end January.red rosé is a test centre so on your lessons you are driving on test routes.

Done my Class 2 and 1 with Enterprise, also my ADR.
Happy enough to tout their name out.

I did some hours DCPC at another provider in the Manchester area, so unimpressed by them that I wont give the benefit of announcing their name.

Absolutely. Our normal course is 14 hours 1:1. As Rog quite rightly says, it depends on the ability of both trainee and trainer. We have problems extremely rarely where a candidate just isn’t ready for test - - around every 2 years this happens. Other factors that can drastically cut training time include the trainer having their own reversing area and test centre (no travelling backwards and forwards to a DSA centre) and, very importantly, the standard of vehicle. We have an alarming number of folk come to us to have trained elsewhere and wrestled with knackered gearboxes and generally poorly maintained trucks. Clearly, running a fleet of new vehicles eliminates these issues.

I would strongly suggest you book assessment drives before you book anywhere. If you struggle with the vehicle, try another one. Don’t be fooled into believing that all trucks are the same - - they are not.

Good luck with your search, Pete :laughing: :laughing:

Agree with Peter go & look book assessment drives so that you are happy with the company you are paying
