Five reasons to rent a dual control car


Learning to drive is something we only ever plan and intend to do once. The earlier you get good at it, the more experienced and responsible you will be on the roads.

However, many people are put off by the rising costs. On average, a driving lesson costs £25 and the number of lessons you need will depend on how quickly you learn – all things considered, it can be an expensive exercise.

That’s why Arnold Clark Car & Van Rental are offering learner drivers a chance to cut their learning costs by almost half.

So, if you’re ready to hit the open road, here’s why you should consider hiring a dual control car from Arnold Clark Car & Van Rental.

Save money

It’s no secret that learning to drive can tighten the purse strings. However, at just £18 an hour, our dual control cars prices are amongst the lowest in the industry.

Yes, you should still learn with an accredited instructor but when you’ve got your provisional licence, you can get extra hours in by practising with a parent or family member. After all, the more time you spend on the roads, the quicker you’ll pass your test – it all (literally) pays off in the long run.

Gain confidence on the road

It’s natural that the more hours you spend practising on the road, the more confident you’ll be. When you’re with an instructor, you might find that you’re restricted to certain test routes but in a dual control car, you can try out other areas and get more acquainted with the road and real-life driving – all with a qualified driver alongside you, of course. The more your confidence grows, the more likely you are to pass first time.
