I made the choice to book my class 1 training with Flair even though they weren’t local to me . I stayed in the hotel literally next door to where they are based and it worked out perfect .
Absolutely first class training from both instructors Andy and Preme . They have a wealth of knowledge gained from many years of experience and have an expertise in teaching these courses. Many thanks also to the guys in the office John and Jaki who where always there to help with any inquiries and very helpful and encouraging.
I would 100% recommend anyone to book with these guys and look no further .

First off all I would like to thank my instructor Andy who trained me really well and got through to get my licence. The team was very helpful from the day I started till I passed and all those that are looking to upgrade their license I would most definitely recommend flair and again thank you very much. Tatenda
I can't recommend enough.
I have just completed my car straight to artic driver training with Flair & passed the test 1st time. I cannot recommend this company enough. From the very 1st point of contact to the end they were brilliant. Great value for money & everything Is taken care of, all you have to do is turn up. Making the whole experience hassle free. Thank you to John & Jaki in the office & extra thanks to Preme & Andy for getting me through both tests. 👍

Not sure to find a better company like Flair. The instructors John and Andy were very helpful. Thank you very much John and Jaki for your patient. A bit long but you helped me to go through this chalenge.... Don't hesitate, they are really good and profesional.
Fantastic service
Fantastic service, great instructor.
They help you at every opportunity and correct and explain every mistake.
Best experience would highly recommend.
Class C passed
The app they use to inform you of the training and tests etc is very good. All very well organised lots of reminders etc. I completed the CPS and Class C driving
The instructors were good and I got through my test first time with one minor(in terrible weather). Would recommend using them.
Passing, Patience And Practice
I completed my training with Flair today. I successfully passed first time with 3 minors. I felt the whole experience was good, I have a newfound appreciation for HGV drivers, it is much more challenging than it seems from the perspective of a car driver.
The reverse training which took place on an old airfield gives a safe and secure space to learn and make mistakes, it removes the pressure and allows you to totally focus on handling the vehicle and how to reverse, I found this excellent.
The driving practice itself is thorough, intensive for sure, but a real life scenario that gave me plenty of hands on experience. The instructors were patient and understanding, even if I made a big mistake. I found learning to manage an HGV quite overwhelming, but Thier calm and patient approach helped me begin to build confidence, enough to pass my test!
I would recommend Flair to anyone who wanted to embark on Thier HGV training, they help set you up ready to pass and have some confidence behind the wheel. Thanks for your help.
