Category C1+E Training
Category C1+E MGV (LGV / HGV) training runs from our site in Stowmarket, Suffolk and tests are taken at the DVSA Test Centre in Ipswich. C1+E is the category that allows you to drive a vehicle over 3,500kg up to 7,500kg with a trailer over 750kg and a combined weight of not more than 12,000kg.
We can also take you for a 4 hour (£220) assessment lesson and advise you on how many additional hours are required to come to test standard – most people requiring only a further 8 or 10 hours with some requiring only 4! All C1+E training is charged at £55/hr, DVSA Test Fee is £115 (£141 out of hours). This means that your C1+E training and test could cost as little as £555 including test fee!
Once you have passed your Category C1 practical test, your C1+E practical course can be arranged and the practical test can be booked – the test lasts approximately 1.5 hours.
The Category C1+E practical test consists of several parts:
- ‘Show Me Tell Me C+E‘ – You will be asked 3 questions from the list (Different to Category C1 list)
- Reverse Manoeuvre – Off Road (See Below)
- General Road Driving – On Road
- Independent Drive – On Road
- Trailer Un-couple and Re-couple Exercise – Off Road
Reverse exercise demonstrated here by one of our previous Categeory C+E Vehicles.
Upon passing your Category C1+E practical test, your examiner will send your licence to the DVLA for updating to the full entitlement.
