1st Talbot School of Motoring, Milton Keynes

Advantages: Good driving instructors
Disadvantages: None that i can think of

...Locke school of motoring is a good school of motoring i paid for 12 hours of driving lessons that cost me around £100-£150 it took me a while to take these lessons because i let my 1st theory test run over the 2 years and i had to take another 1 and i passed it after the 4th time. The driving instructor i had he was great because im short he made me sit on a cushion so i was higher up and i could see a bit better and i told him what i was failing on in my other tests and with his help i got through. The prices at the time last year were about £16 for an hour and about £32 for 2 hours. With Locke i found that the prices were reasonable but are expensive because you could probably get them for cheaper. You can either have a woman instructor or a male instructor it depends on who you feel more comfortable with to help you through your test... Read review

That was a mistake. Dave Miller was the total opposite. Most of the lessons, which were slightly more expensive, were spent parked up talking, rather than gaining essential experience on the road. In 5th lesson 10 mins driving, 50 mins talking. The first couple involved much more driving. £20 per... Read review

...Hello, Please see attached a letter I have just sent to Mercedes - does anyone else have similar experiences ? Customer Services, Mercedes Benz, DaimlerChrysler UK Ltd Tongwell, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire MK15 8BA 9 August, 2000 Dear Sir, RE: C180 Elegance - registration S393EGC I am writing to express my concern and disappointment with my Mercedes C180 Elegance that I purchased from Geyfords (Tooting, London) in November 1998. I purchased my car for £26,521 in good faith based on the quality, reliability and residual value offered by Mercedes. I am afraid that I must write to you to detail the unmitigated failure of your company to meet my expectations on all counts: 1. Week 1: Front grill misplaced and required refitting. 2. Rear passenger window jammed open and required new... Read review
