We combine simulator & road training to reduce the number of lessons required but maximize your learning. In 6-8 simulator lessons beginners perfect the basic skills essential to become a safe driver and reduce anxiety (this can reduce with some experience).
Advanced training exposes you to all aspects of driving & conditions - city & open roads, hills and motorways, so you become confident to drive anywhere.
Students using the full Excellence Driving training system gain their license faster and are more skilled drivers. Zero experience to restricted in 12-15 lessons, often with no errors.
Advanced or hazard awareness training is available to make you a safer driver - we personalise a programme tailored to suit your needs.
Best value for money. 1 hr in Sim = 3 hrs on road.
Teaches to a perfect standard
Fills your gaps in your driving knowledge
Makes you a safer driver for life
At Excellence Driver Training we offer a full customer experience, including booking your licence test for you.
Whether you have completed our full system or just need a brush up before testing, we pledge to help you be the best driver possible in as short a time as possible. Please try to remember that miracles do sometimes take a little longer and as our services are in high demand, we recommend you contact us early to avoid disappointment.
Within a week of testing if we don’t believe you are ready, we will tell you – so you don’t waste test bookings or money. Our cars are available for testing for a small fee if you have done your training with us.
We recommend a short lesson prior to testing to relax you, practice manoeuvres and make your nervous mistakes with us. Conversion from simulator to road is fast (usually 1 lesson for beginners) and within a few road lessons to practice parking, head checks & everything else you perfected on the simulator - you should be ready for testing.
