Have been lurking for a while, so seeing as I have now gained my licence thought I should sign up and say hello.
I live in the York area, so no prizes for guessing who I trained with… (T.T.)
…As they are nearby I’m pretty sure I would have just used them anyway, but it was certainly useful to read about them on here first before committing a sizeable chunk of cash.
.
I undertook 3 1/2 days 1 to 1 training (test was at lunchtime on the 4th day) and was very pleased to gain my Class 2 licence (and Mod 4 CPC) at the first attempt.
In the process of updating my CV before hitting the Agencies, got myself a Tachocard and a Philips truckers atlas (again thanks for the useful threads on the subject).
i do have experience of driving a 3.5T in my own business (now wound up) which may hopefully help a little.
Mac74:
Congrats, I have passed the test this morning as well, and thanks to T.T. as well
one question: where did you buy the Philips truckers atlas? online or a specific shop in York area?
Yes, start to finish thought they were a great trainer, although certainly not the cheapest…
Got the Atlas on Amazon
…and congrats to you too
thanks and good luck!!
edit: yes, not the cheapest, but watching some youtube video about the reversing exercise I’ve seen the quality of the training area, and the vehicles used by others and I can see the difference and I understand the price
