Speedster Course
A concentrated course for learners with a fixed deadline.
Our most concentrated option: up to eight hours a day across two consecutive weekends, or a block of four to six days, for learners working towards a fixed deadline. The higher per-hour rate buys fully dedicated, priority scheduling and your test-day car. It suits learners who can clear the time for a genuinely intensive block, from complete beginners through to drivers who need a final push.

How It Works
From enquiry to test ready.
01
Set your date
Tell us your deadline and we will map out a consecutive-weekend or short-block schedule that fits the hours you need.
02
Clear the time
Because sessions run back to back, skills build quickly. Expect full days rather than single hourly lessons.
03
Mock test
Your final session includes a realistic mock test, so nothing about the real thing catches you off guard.
04
Sit your test
We help you book your practical test for the end of your block, or shortly after if you need a little longer.
Why Zola
What every Speedster Course lesson includes.
Checked driving instructors
We check each instructor's credentials and DBS status before introducing them to learners. You are welcome to ask to see your instructor's badge in the windscreen.
One instructor, start to finish
You are matched with one local instructor and stay with them. No rotating pool, no relearning someone else's way of teaching halfway through.
Manual or automatic, your choice
Dual-controlled cars in both, with fuel and full insurance cover included in the price of every lesson.

View courseCourse Questions
Speedster Course, answered
How many hours do I need for the Speedster course?+
Blocks run from 10 to 32 hours at up to 8 hours a day. Which one suits you depends on how much driving you have already done — each package above says who it is for, and your instructor will confirm the right starting point before you commit to anything. You can add hours later if you need them.
Is the practical test included in Speedster Course?+
Use of the car on test day is included in every Speedster Course package. The DVSA test fee itself is not — that is paid directly to the DVSA when you book your test.
Can I take Speedster in an automatic car?+
Yes — every course is available in both. Automatic costs a little more than manual. This is our highest per-hour rate, and it buys fully dedicated, priority scheduling plus your test-day car. A manual licence lets you drive both manual and automatic cars afterwards, while an automatic licence covers automatic cars only.
Do I have to pay for everything upfront?+
Nothing is taken when you enquire. You pay your instructor directly, and they will set out their prices, payment terms and refund terms before you commit to anything. Instructors we work with have agreed not to take advance payment for more than 10 hours of tuition at a time, so you are never far out of pocket.
