Hope you´re well. Just wanted to say a massive thank you for everything over the last 6-7 months, that you taught me to drive. You instilled me with confidence in my own ability, and every week I was finding I thought myself better than the week before. You never gave up on me and encouraged me all the way, and you gave me 110% support throughout the entire course. You helped me to pass my theory test first time to a high level, and gave me that one final push and confidence I needed for my driving test, and I passed first time with only 2 minor faults, all down to Chris, of course :). I have encouraged all my friends who are learning to drive To pick Top Gear Driving School. I miss my lessons every week , I almost wished I hadn´t passed :). Chris one more big thank you! Your a brilliant instructor, person and I wish you all the best in the future.

I was previously learning with Martin Regan and I took my driving test at the end of January and failed due to someone overtaking me on a dual carriageway. After that I had to take a break from driving to focus on my university work so I rescheduled my test for when I'd be free again under the knowledge that Martin had said he would be able to make the room to take me out again.
After I moved the test and tried to get in touch with him to let him know what was happening and what my plan was, he stopped answering my calls and started ignoring my texts which resulted in me a) having to move my driving test again and b) having to find a new instructor.
My test is booked for the 26th May 2:42pm and in that week I'd be looking at booking one or two lessons so that I'm able to get used to the car (previously I was driving a Ford Fiesta 1.5 titanium TDCi Diesel) before the test.
Any help you could give would be much appreciated or if you can't help but could point me in the direction of someone who could that would be great too!
Thank you!

I took my test years ago and put off learning again until recently. I've had about 10 hours of lessons recently and 20 hours of practice driving.
I've got a test booked on June 6th at 8.20am in Plymouth. I was wondering if you'd be able to accommodate the test and be available for some lessons (ideally 2 hours ones) the week running up to that?
I'll be based at Fort Picklecombe (PL10 1JG), but I know that's out of the way so I could be picked up on the Plymouth side of the Torpoint ferry.
Thanks,
Anna

I'm looking to start driving lessons as soon as possible, from now and up until the middle of July I am only available at weekends as I'm working away in North Devon. After the middle of July I can be more flexible. I have driven before, but never had any proper lessons, my dad was teaching me and it was a few years ago.
Look forward to hearing back from you.
Thanks

My name is Kitty Weale and I am hoping to start driving lessons again to pass my test by the end of summer, I have had a few lessons before but due to stop and starting have never actually done my test, practical or theory.
I live in St. Germans near Saltash and was wondering if you cover that area at all?
I find driving makes me nervous and quite anxious but I do really need to pass before graduating University next year.
Kind regards,
