September 25th, 2010 Administrator

Emily from Sharnbrook & a Sharnbrook Upper School student passed her driving test FIRST TIME this week.

She took driving lessons in Bedford with Bedford driving school Txt-Drive.

Emily passed on her FIRST attempt & made just 4 minor errors on the driving test in Bedford. She was asked to do the reverse around a corner & the turn in the road.

Emily wrote to Txt-Drive driving school in Bedford to say :

“I would definitely recommend Txt-Drive driving school. Had such a laugh but knew I was improving steadily. My driving instructor (Chris) adapted to my slow pace well but never made me feel like I wasn’t learning something every lesson. Thanks Chris, I’m looking forward to Pass Plus!!”

Emily was given personal recommendations to take driving lessons in Bedford with the local Bedford driving school Txt-Drive.

She was given Bedford driving lessons in the BMW MINI. This is the car that the local Bedford driving instructors from Txt-Drive use.

If you would like to learn to drive in Bedford & in a BMW MINI then contact Txt-Drive. If you want to try to pass your driving test in Bedford FIRST TIME like many of our Txt-Drive pupils do – then call us on 0800 8600 983 (FREEPHONE) or visit www.txt-drive.co.uk or text DRIVE to 80039 (standard text rate).

All Txt-Drive driving instructors are FULLY QUALIFIED. Txt-Drive JUST use the BMW MINI. Some other driving schools use the BMW MINI but our is kitted out with alloys, Bi-Xenon headlights, air con, fully adjustable seats & steering wheel etc.

Also some other driving schools that use the BMW MINI also use ‘poorer quality’ cars – therefore you may be disappointed when a Ford turns up!! DON’T be disappointed – call Txt-Drive to learn to drive in a BMW MINI!!!!

Sean, a Mark Rutherford Upper School student, passed his driving test in Bedford on Monday.

This was his FIRST driving test & he passed!! Sean had taken a series of driving lessons in Bedford with Txt-Drive driving school & he passed his driving test just 38 days after his first driving lesson. In total Sean took 27 hours of driving lessons in Bedford before passing his driving test.

Sean was asked to perform the reverse around a corner & the turn in the road maneuvers on his driving test in Bedford. He picked up just 13 driver errors (minors) on the test.

Sean took Bedford driving lessons with local Bedford driving instructor Chris from the Bedford driving school Txt-Drive Driving School. He wrote to us to say :

“Chris was extremely helpful on my driving lessons. Calming too. Felt very comfortable & had quite a laugh! Would definitely recommend to everyone! Thank you!”

Since Sean passed his driving test in Bedford he has already recommended Bedford driving school Txt-Drive to 2 of his friends & they have block booked driving lessons in Bedford with Txt-Drive driving school.

The PASS PLUS course with his Txt-Drive driving instructor from Bedford is the next step in Sean’s driver training. He will continue to drive the BMW MINI on the PASS PLUS course when he will drive on the motorway for the first time!

Txt-Drive driving school would like to say a big “CONGRATULATIONS!!” to Sean!!

The truth about those 5 for £56 driving lessons!!

September 8th, 2010 Administrator

You’ve probably seen those local & national driving schools offering 5 lessons for £55 or 5 lessons for £56?

They may seem like a good deal at first – but look deeper into the figures & they aren’t that cheap after all!!

The DSA suggest that learners require 44 hours of professional driving lessons with a qualified driving instructor before passing their driving test. These 44 hours are in ADDITION to 23 hours of private practise with a parent therefore 67 hours on average before you pass your driving test.

So looking at a large local driving school which offers 5 driving lessons for £55 it means you would pay £874.00 for 44 hours of driving lessons including the 5 for £55 (£21 per hour after the initial 5 lessons). Looking at a national driving school which advertises a similar offer of 5 lessons for £56  you would end up having to pay £873.05 for 44 hours (including the 5 for £56 & then £20.95 for each additional hour).

Txt-Drive would only charge £825 for the 44 hours of driving lessons. This includes our offer of buy one hour, get one hour free (valid on the first lesson only) & our cheap low cost prices!! We are the best part of £50 CHEAPER than the driving schools which offer 5 lessons for £55 or £56!!!

If you did not have any private practise then you would be looking at 67 hours of driving lessons before passing you driving test (according to average figures from the DSA).

With the 67 hours of driving lessons in mind the local driving school offering 5 lessons for £55 would charge £1357 & the national driving school would charge £1354.90!! Txt-Drive would charge just £1270 for 67 hours!! This is up to £87 CHEAPER than the local driving school!!

Txt-Drive prides itself on offering EXTREMELY good value for money!! We use the BMW MINI car for driving lessons in Bedford & are still cheaper than the large local driving school which also uses the MINI.

Don’t be fooled into what seem like ‘cheap’ driving lessons! Sit down & take your time to calculate how much driving lessons could cost you! Many of our competitors use cheap prices or special offers such as the 5 for £56 to draw you in & then hope you will continue to pay the higher rate of driving lessons!!

So if you want cheap, low cost driving lessons in Bedford with FULLY QUALIFIED driving instructors & want to learn to drive in a BMW MINI, then Txt-Drive is the driving school for you!! Call us on 0800 8600 983 (it’s a FREEPHONE number!) or request a FREE call back by leaving your details on www.txt-drive.co.uk or text DRIVE to 80039 (charged at your standard text message rate) & we will then call you back.
