Can somone reccomend me of a decent instructor who's reasonably priced?
cheers
Also, is the driving simulator worth a go on? My sister is adamant that it is no use and i'm better off with real instructor(she's been driving few years) but looking at BSM leaflet they start with 5hours on the sim? any opinions?

My driver instructor is really good, I pay £45 for a 2 hour lesson every week. Which I think is about average? He used to be with BSM but recently went on his own. I learn in a brand new 307 .
He must have the patience of a saint teaching me!
I could pm u his number if u wanted.

passed on nov 5th 1992 woot
driving lessons were £10
Dont use the simulator, that aint the real deal..... the instructor has dual control if anything goes wrong, and he is trained. life experience is better.
Remember the krypton factor...

Yeah, my advice is to not bother with the simulator. Just sounds like a rip off to me...
The best experience is real experience

Only reason i thought the sim would be any good is because its gotta be cheaper to learn the basics at £16 ph than it is £25 ish...
is there anyone on here who's actually used the sim?
Praps if i book a normal lesson first and then if im real shit i'll get some sims before taking lesson 2 :badteeth:

maybe get someone to take you out somewhere quiet in their car so you can get used to using the cluth, pulling away and gears before you have a lesson.
you might save alot of time and money that way
