Stressed about finding a car for your last-minute driving test in Charlton? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
By law, you need a DVSA-approved car for your driving test. This can be your driving instructor’s car, a rental car, or even your vehicle (if it meets the requirements).
Many learners prefer using their instructor’s car because it’s insured, has dual controls, and is familiar. However, booking an instructor with short notice can be difficult. Here at DTC, we can even help you find a last-minute instructor if needed.
Maybe you secured a short-notice test but your instructor is unavailable, or perhaps your car isn’t suitable for the test. Whatever the reason, we can help! We offer both automatic and manual cars that are readily available, even for short-notice tests. Ideally, we like a week’s notice, but we understand things don’t always go according to plan, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.
On top of the car rental, our service also includes a qualified instructor who will be there to guide and support you, increasing your chances of passing your test and getting your license!
