Emergency Car Hire for
your Driving Test

Being the most borough in London, Enfield has a population of about 350,000 residents. The borough is home to the Middlesex University and Capel Manor College. Furthermore, it is home to successful businesses such as KEA, Amazon, and BT. The London Borough of Enfield has a diverse range of people from all over the world.

Many of these residents have full driving licences in their own counties and are eager to change it to a UK licence. Maybe for this reason, demand for driving lessons and especially driving tests is high. If you are a resident of the borough of Enfield and wish to get a  UK driver’s licence, you need to consider whether you want a manual or an automatic driving licence. 

The biggest advantage of passing your driving test in a manual car is that you will get two driving licences for the price of one. Hire a manual car for your driving test and pass and you will be entitled to drive both automatic and manual vehicles. Manual cars are a lot cheaper to purchase than automatic cars. On average, a manual vehicle costs approximately £1000 cheaper than an automatic vehicle. If you’re on a low budget, it makes sense to purchase a manual vehicle. Furthermore, manual cars use less fuel than automatic ones. On average, a manual vehicle will cost you 10% less in fuel than an automatic vehicle.

The disadvantage of taking a driving test in a manual car is the risk that the manual car may either roll down a hill or even stall. Driving a manual vehicle involves a lot more coordination than driving an automatic vehicle. You will have the additional work of changing up and down the gears.

Once you’ve booked a driving test appointment for your driving test in Enfield, the DVSA will promptly send you an email to confirm this appointment. In that email, they will emphasise the importance of having a suitable car ready for the test day.

Most learner drivers prefer to use their instructor’s cars. However, as the instructors in the Enfield area of London are extremely busy, there is a high possibility that their driving instructor won’t be available to accompany you on the designated day of their test.

If your instructor is not available or you simply don’t have one, you can choose to hire a car for your driving at Enfield from DTC Driving School.  All our instructors abide by the DVSA voluntary code of conduct.

Usually, we require seven days’ notice for bookings. However, even if your driving test is booked for tomorrow, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Our email address is [email protected]
