WrightStart is brilliant

WrightStart is brilliant, the driving instructor Lewis is great easy to talk to and a great teacher. With my test I passed first time with only 3 faults and that’s all because of WrightStart.

Bought this as a birthday present for our 11 year old however, he was so excited in the build up, we thought we would make it a more regular event if it went well.
We were a little surprised to find that the cars are manual but that didn't hinder him at all. It actually seemed to enhance the experience as it was a 'proper' gearbox. We didn't see one kangaroo the whole time!
As for the drive itself, he absolutely loved it! I suspect he'll be regaling his friends with all of the detail at school tomorrow. Will he be going again? He certainly will.

Great experience for my 11 year old. He looks forward to every session. Wrap up as a spectator as the car park is windy.

Not really sure why this has appeared now, when we've only purchased the driving experience and not actually done it yet! The buying bit was fine! Sure the driving bit will be too, as my daughter had one last year and really enjoyed it.
