Your car

You might already have a car in which to practice. This will certainly help, even if it's quite different from mine.

​If you're deciding what to buy, think about (1) initial cost, (2) running cost, and (3) fuel. ​ If you'll drive under 20,000 miles/year, a petrol-fuelled car is probably best, though it's not as powerful at low speed (= easier to stall).  Then there's EVs.  For broader info, see guides on owning a car.

​I trust these user-car dealers to help you decide what suits you: Onions (West Heath); Smallbone & Son (Selly Oak); The Wigorn Garage (Selly Park); Glenavon Motors (Maypole); Park Garage Autos (Selly Park/Oak); Addison Road Garage (Kings Heath).
That said, a brand-new car is more capable, comfortable, durable, reliable, and may cost LESS OVERALL.  And don't forget electric cars !
