Bay parking lessons in Aberdeen
Bay parking is the easiest of the three test manoeuvres if you have reliable reference points. We drill both forward bay (drive in, reverse out) and reverse bay (reverse in, drive out) in the kind of car parks Aberdeen (Cove) examiners actually use.

What we focus on for bay parking in Aberdeen
Forward bay is easier on the way in but trickier on the way out — the reverse out is where most marks are lost, because pupils relax once 'parked' and forget to do a 6-point observation.
Garthdee routes lean on Bridge of Dee and Anderson Drive; Cove routes use the A956 and the residential streets around Loirston and Charleston.
Who this is for: Pupils preparing for Aberdeen (Cove) test, post-test drivers wanting tidy parking, refresher returners.

In short: Aberdeen pupils train on the actual Aberdeen (Garthdee) routes, with one instructor, in one car. The A90 corridor and the Bridge of Don streets are part of the plan, not an afterthought.
If you're just outside Aberdeen — say edinburgh — pickup still works on the same route plan.
