Category C+E Training
Category C+E (Class 1) LGV / HGV training runs around Ipswich, Suffolk and uses the DVSA Test Centre in Ipswich. C+E is the category that allows you to drive a vehicle over 3,500kg with a trailer over 750kg. Typically these type of vehicles go up to 44,000kg. We only recommend a full length 20 Hour Category C+E course – don’t be tempted by the short courses offered by other trainers who are already planning your re-test. Ensure you are sufficiently prepared to maximise your chances of a first time pass!!! 20 Hours – £Contact – price includes the practical tests fee of £40 & £115. |
