Sharree was amazing at sorting out my training and driving test at such short notice and super friendly. Ben and Andy were cracking trainers and helped me to feel calm and prepared for the driving test, giving clear instructions and advice. Overall, everyone was really nice and helpful. I passed my C1 first time after only 14 hours of training. Max Brewer Done the class 1 HGV driving experience with Sean and oh boy what an experience it was. Met Sean and got straight to it driving a 50+ feet lorry around the track and getting a feel for the lorry. Would certainly recommend and heavily persuaded to do it again!!
