Driving in Nottingham

Nottingham is about 38 miles south west of Lincoln on the A46, roughly 50 to 55 minutes.

Three test centres serve the city — Colwick to the east, Chilwell/Beeston to the south west and Watnall to the north west — so tell me which one your test is at.

City driving here includes the A52, A60 and A610, tram lines and bus lanes, plus the M1 at junctions 25 and 26 for dual carriageway work.

What you need to know

  • You must already have a DVSA practical driving test booked. Courses are planned backwards from your existing test date, and I cannot obtain or provide a test for you.
  • All dates are subject to my personal availability. Courses are delivered by me — this is not an instructor-matching or course-management service.
  • No management fee — the price covers your tuition.
  • The DVSA practical test fee is not included.
  • Prices for Nottingham already include the £150 out-of-area delivery supplement.
  • Hourly, weekly driving lessons are available in Lincoln only.

Automatic car availability

Automatic courses depend on a suitable dual-control automatic hire vehicle being available for every day of your course. An automatic course is only confirmed once that vehicle is secured.

The automatic price shown includes the current dual-control automatic hire allowance, so there is nothing extra to add later.
