How quickly can I pass my driving test?
It depends on your experience and test availability where you live. Many learners are test-ready within a few weeks. Courses themselves run over 1 to 14 days, and most start 2-6 weeks after booking.
How much does an intensive driving course cost?
Manual courses run from £502 for 6 hours to £2,752 for 48 hours. Automatic is from £520 to £2,896. You pay a deposit today (from £262) to secure the course and the rest directly to your instructor when the course starts.
Does the course include a practical test?
Your course comes with free Test Swap Pro support. Since May 2026 only learners can book, change or swap their own practical test, so we help you find a suitable date and you confirm it directly with the DVSA.
Do I need to pass my theory test first?
Ideally, yes. You need a valid theory certificate before a practical test can be booked. You can start lessons beforehand, but it may affect your timescale.
Manual or automatic, which is right for me?
Automatic is quicker to learn because there are no gears or clutch, so it suits nervous or time-pressed learners. An automatic licence only covers automatic cars. Manual covers both.
Are your instructors DVSA approved?
Yes. Every course is delivered by a fully qualified DVSA-Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) local to you.
What if you can't find me an instructor?
Our money-back guarantee covers it: if we can't arrange an instructor for your course, your deposit is refunded in full.
Which course length should I choose?
Roughly: 6-12 hours if you're near test standard or recently failed, 18-24 hours if you're part-trained, and 30 hours or more if you're a beginner. The course matcher on our home page will recommend one in about 20 seconds.
