I passed my test a couple of years ago and I had 2 lessons with Regal Driving School to rebuild my confidence again after having not driven since passing my test. He is very relaxed and a great instructor so I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting driving lessons or just to rebuild confidence.

Farhan is a very good instructor. He doesn't miss a single thing. He will explain things in the most simple way, and he really cares about you passing and been safe Most other instructors just try and give you a ride and Farhan actually wants you to pass. I passed with 2 minors. His scanning technique definitely opens your world view of driving creating a complex yet simple approach to driving. Thank you Farhan. Very genuine nice guy

I cannot recommend Farhan enough as a driving instructor. As a new driver in the UK, I was a bit nervous about learning to drive on the left side of the road and navigating unfamiliar rules. Farhan was incredibly patient, clear, and thorough in his teaching. He taught me everything I needed to know, not just to pass the test, but to be a safe and confident driver. Thanks to his excellent instruction, I passed my driving test on the very first attempt, with minimal minors. If you're looking for a driving instructor who is knowledgeable, supportive, and truly dedicated to getting you test-ready, Farhan is your guy.

We're here to help!

Why should I choose manual driving lessons?

Learning to drive a manual car gives you more control over the vehicle and a full driving licence, allowing you to drive both manual and automatic cars. It can also be more cost-effective in the long run.

Where do you offer manual driving lessons in Leeds?

We offer manual lessons across Leeds, including Harehills, Horsforth, and Colton Mill areas. You’ll train on local roads and routes commonly used during the driving test.

While it varies from person to person, most learners need between 30–40 hours of professional instruction to feel test-ready in a manual vehicle.

Are the manual lessons suitable for complete beginners?

Absolutely. Our manual lessons are ideal for beginners. We start with the basics—clutch control, gear changes, and hill starts—and build your confidence from there.
