Car

You will have to bring a suitable car to your practical test.  But it doesn't have to be your instructor's car :

YOUR OWN CAR ...

• Must display L-plates and have an extra centre/internal mirror fitted
• Must be insured for you to drive on test (not all hire companies allow this)
• ​Will be your responsibility to ensure all lights are working, tyres are visually safe and legal, and no warning lamps are lit​
• Needs someone to get it (and maybe you) to the test centre
• ​Is cheaper, as you won't need to hire mine

YOUR INSTRUCTOR'S CAR ...

• Will already have the necessary additional items in place
• May be more familiar to you
• Is the instructor​'s responsibility to be suitable
• Means you don't have to get yourself to the test centre, and back home
• Will cost you to hire it for the time of the test
