Moderator Cynic Posted August 1, 2015 Moderator Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) Lets put a better spin on it, I failed the practical for my class 1, a while ago now,. That was £250 for the retest and another £250 for the truck and instructor for the 2 hrs needed. And yes I paid for MY HGV licence, to find you need another 500 quid after stumping up £1500 to start with hurts. Didn't have a theory test to do though...

Katie1 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Good luck! I was told passing your test in rain, sleet and snow was character building 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vayduh Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 And confidence inspiring when you realise what the bike can do in the rain (if it's set up right).Also worth remembering that the test centre Tarmac (at least the one I went to) was perhaps the best Tarmac I have ever seen - better than a runway and sticky as hell.Keep taking those steps forward ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
