Negative experience: He is non contactable. I have gone to his mentioned address and was not able to find his office.

Fantastic experience: For my B+E training I opted to avoid the big companies and go with the local guy and I never regretted it one bit. Al really wants to get you through your test and is really professional in his teaching techniques, he's full of energy and happy to chat the time away! He has a great truck and trailer setup that really helps you pass the test first time. Al has passed every driving test going, who else would you want to teach you? Thanks for your knowledge and getting me through my test.

Maria Greenwood 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I felt very nervous about my B+E test, but Al made me feel at ease. As I have towed before and feel I am a confident driver, I did the day course. Al came in cheaper than his competitors, but the service was very thorougher and great value for money. I couldn't have passed my test if it wasn't for the assistance and advice Al gave me and I have certainly recommended his services to others I know looking to do their B+E test.......cheers Al!

Oliver Sykes 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend Al, he was absolutely brilliant and really well organised. Having very limited experience driving with a trailer he was able to help me pass my B+E test first time! His prices are the best around which is the main reason why me and my partner chose to use him for the training over more expensive providers! Overall I really enjoyed the training and I am now looking forward to being able to tow my larger caravan on holiday. Thanks again Al!

Fantastic experience: Alun was a brilliant instructor, very thorough and explained things clearly. I had used another company before and couldn’t get my head around reversing the trailer after two whole days, but Alun had me understanding it and successfully doing it within an hour! Highly recommended.
