Trust me they are not worht the cash - did it - the stress of trying to learn everything etc.. them u are still no gauranteed to passs at the end. much better taking a few weeks and actually learning the rules properly rather than trying to cram it in a week. I also believe the police are trying to get these banned as they apparently don't actually teach you anything other than the correct answers . they say yo do not gain the required experience - possibly 3 times a week with your instructor over a few months would be better.

Don't know whether they do them in Caithness or not, but I did the intensive course for both my motorbike and car licence and would recommend doing them that way. Totally suited me anyway ... and passed first time in both instances.

I have had it in my mind to do the bike one for a couple of years, I'm not going to do it here though. At least you get it over with and more intensive instruction.

If one is going to question spelling on another post it is advisable to have a little knowledge of English grammar

Personally I don't think you can gain the skills to be a competent driver in a week/two!

I don't think you can become a competent driver in a week no matter who teaches you, becoming a competent is only achieved by spending many miles and weeks behind the wheel.
