mattbowey Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I need to get my trailer test done. Anyone know of any north east based or nationwide, that may have a branch in the north east, companies that do a 1 day intensive course including the test.

rtbiscuit Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 what are the rough costs of doing a towing course and licence, i'd like to add it to mine. i can already tow 15tonne trailer but not covered to do ti with the cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattbowey Posted December 19, 2010 Author Share Posted December 19, 2010 i got a couple of quotes, these prices based on 3 of us doing it together 1 - day and a half training and test - 265 ea 2- 4/5 days training and test - lots more than above - it appears i didnt even write that one down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
