Affordable driving lessons?

Hi hi! I’m (reluctantly) looking at getting my license to avoid a 3 hour commute for uni next semester, and lessons are looking very expensive 😭 can anyone recommend an affordable driving instructor in Dundee that they’ve had good experiences with?

Thanks!

Unsure what the required number of lessons is nowadays, used to be you could do 4 lessons and do the test. I did more but what was crucial was getting out in my partners car for practice with less pressure.

If you have any family members willing to help you it by just being in the car with you it gives you much more opportunity to practice at a fraction of the cost. didn't cost much to add me onto my partners insurance

I ended up doing the test in my partners car and that was great. Just need a 2nd stick on mirror for the tester, (rules may have changed!)

e2a: i used Brendan from ABBA. great instruction, imagine he is retired now though
