What we focus on for own-car lessons in Edinburgh
We can't run learner-permit lessons in your own car — the car needs dual controls and L-plates, plus the right insurance. Once you've passed, that restriction lifts.
Common own-car requests in Edinburgh: motorway confidence, parallel parking refresh, urban driving for foreign-licence drivers, and post-test 'just got my licence and the car feels different' nerves.
Who this is for: Full licence holders only — refresher, foreign licence, post-test confidence.
