On the doorstep of your test at Colwick
Your practical test will be at the Nottingham (Colwick) test centre, which is right next to Netherfield. That is a genuine advantage, because almost every lesson can be on the style of roads, roundabouts and junctions the examiner actually uses. As your test nears, we run mock tests under realistic conditions. There is more on our Colwick test preparation page, linked below.
Why automatic works well here
With no clutch and no gears to think about, an automatic lets you focus on the road, your positioning and your decisions. On the busier retail-park junctions and roundabouts around Netherfield, that makes a real difference, especially for nervous learners.
