What's a "DAS course"?

Training costs as much as it costs. Some people just aren't confident, or make a hash of tests, and need a lot of vagina petting hand holding.

Workmate got a great deal 5 years back when he paid 800 sovs for an "all the training you need" course and needed month after month of lessons to get up to test standard, some of them at 1:1. Paid at full whack, it could easily have cost him that much today.

£60 for a 2 hour lesson, so 2 lessons a week for 10 weeks, would bring you to £1200, chuck in a couple of failed mod1s and a failed mod 2 and youre probably somewhere around £1700

Jesus Christ 20 lessons?! Who does 20 lessons? I'm sure I only had 8-10 tops? Thought that was standard practice? Perhaps if you haven't driven on the roads before?

People learn at different rates (OMG it took you 8-10 lessons, your rubbish ). I have respect for people not giving up. Also with the current license system if you start failing (mod 1 multiple times for example) it gets expensive quickly.

Mine cost me about 600ish with a failed mod1, but I can see how it could cost a hell of a lot more if you need more lessons or re-tests.

And you my little pink friend... need a new bike

Yeah 600 is good going. I thought 800 was around average but I can appreciate how people learn at different rates. Just wanted an honest answer as to how it can end up being 1700. It's an honest question, that's all!

No different to learning anything, as others said it takes everyone different amounts of time. I paid £750 all in for 4 days training, but I picked it up fairly well. If you were not that quick at picking it up or a total newbie then it could easily take a few more sessions.

Mine cost me £121.50, just sayin'

Another member of the no lesson and pass first time club, in fact I made a thread about how to do it and stuck it in my sig




But not everyone is as elite as me and therefore require lessons, if they want to pay £1700 then I certainly won't be using those tears to fap with later

It is not possible. The most expensive DAS courses with guaranteed pass scheme cost about £800-£900.

Bare in mind that guaranteed pass scheme means you get free additional training untill you pass. So it does not matter how many lesson you need. £900 is the maximum you can pay.

Theory test, CBT, MOD1 and 2 14 lessons so far at £85 each
works out at around £1400 so far

Test is this week after 2 more lessons... one on the day before test

I didn't think that was excessive for someone who hadn't been on the road on a bike before.

Also these extra lessons was my idea, cos if im honest im shitting it and dont feel ready for the test, even though my trainer has confidence in me

For the record Barnoe didn't mean to come across like a cunt, was just surprised at the money. Good luck for the test

Your not the only one surprised by the cost LOL

I convinced myself it would take around £700 tops when i started :/

I am partly to blame though, somewhere in the middle of this i had several lessons where i didnt seem to advance like i had hoped.
Still missing the lifesaver and making silly mistakes like forgetting the indicator, lifesaver over the right shoulder at a roundabouts turning right.... no idea why.
had about 5 lessons like that.... then suddenly snapped out of it and started moving forward again.

I dont think your a cunt lol, i get the sense of humour of the forum... lots of piss takers on here
