Fantastic experience: What can I say about these guys! In a word awesome ! The instructors , Stuart and Alan have a wealth of knowledge and the best attitude EVER , getting me through my test first time . Being an instructor myself, albeit on Motorcycles, I'd give these guys a job in a heartbeat lol . What a team . From the minute I stepped in the training office to the minute I walked away , I was made feel comfortable and welcome . The training I received was second to none , with good clear instruction , lots of encouragement and good banter ! I cannot recommend them highly enough . Lovely , modern ,well maintained fleet to learn in also . If looking to do any training , this is DEFINITELY the one to go with ! If I could leave 10 stars I would . Thanks again Stuart and Alan .

Negative experience: Another firm that is to blame for the congestion on the Queensferry Crossing. I just witnessed a driver who thinks it's okay to go up and down the slip roads bringing the main carriageway to a halt. The drivers here clearly don't understand traffic flow.

Negative experience: If you ever thought about using this company commercially then dont, look elsewhere to get a company with better trained professional drivers ! We were nearly run off the road today just outside Kirkudbright, by one of their drivers travelling at speed towards us and unable to take a corner on his side of the road. Crazy that the company employ such halfwits and also have their company name emblazoned across the sides of the trailer.

Negative experience: One of your trucks was overtaking a tractor in Coylton in the village as I was coming out of one of the junctions he was diving very fast on the wrong side of the road and nearly took me out. I had my grad daughter in the car. Please educate your drivers as when it is safe to overtake as this was not one of those times.

Fantastic experience: Tom French and son. I done my clas 1 with Alan Guthrie. Was offered a job straight away! Couldn't believe my luck! David gave me a start and away i went. Unfortunately things changed for me and had to eventually change my plans! Absolutely loved driving and wish things had gone to plan on my side. However would really like to say a very big thankyou to Alan Guthrie and David Carmichael for all their help! Cheers Craig.
