  • Can't recommend them enough. Andy was an amazing instructor, very chill and funny, great at explaining things and answering any of my questions. If there was anything you were nervous about Andy would take the time to go over everything with you, it's not just about ticking a box they make sure you are confident in what you are doing. If there were any areas you wanted to practise before a test they were more than happy to stop and focus on it until you were happy. And also thanks to Mike not only for doing my CPC test but for staying in grate communication when i was enquiring and answering any questions i had

  • Couldn't recommend them enough. Mike stayed in friendly and welcoming contact from enquiring through to passing first time. The Andy's are a laugh and are there to give advice and answer any questions rather than just ticking boxes to pass the tests. Good value too, will be back for any further training.

  • Was very lucky to come across and get a course booked in with these guys. My instructor Andy was brilliant by teaching me everything I need to know about driving a class 1 lorry. I very, very highly recommend to do any form of professional driving courses with this company. 😁
