    Road Test Car Rental+Two Hours

    $195. GST incl.

    The   most frequent and ideal solution is to use the car that you have been   taking lessons in. It is often the case that you will take the  practical  test in the same vehicle as instructors often use many  reference  markers, especially for parallel parking. These reference  markers are  usually car specific and as each car is different you will  feel more  confident using the same car for the test.  

    Brush Up - Lesson 2 Hours

    $130 GST incl.

    This   package is designed for students who wish to improve their driving   performance and driving habits before taking the road test.  It is very   helpful if students take this course before the road test.
