My first lesson was with BSM in a brown mini.One instructor I had was a female hippy long hair and glasses.
I passed my test with A to Z school of motoring 3 years later in a fiesta

Mine was a lady (a bit unusual fo the mid 70's though there were still quite a few). We drove her driving school car which was a Wolsley Hornet (similar to a Riley Elf). Both cars are based on the mini but with a boot rather than the flat rear.

Re: L plates

taught by a disinterested old geezer in a triumph herald......great ! especially in the rain in a busy high street ....but he just stopped turning up for me ?
..then I think it was BSM (very expensive) or auto school - where examiner told me to cancel test date as I wasn't ready - PASSED FIRST TIME

Re: L plates

I also add an old disinterested guy , as wide as he was tall ....who chain smoked throughout my lessons. !

He 'needed ' a big car so I learnt how to drive in a Vauxhall Ventura ( as I recall ) which had a huge turning circle thingy . .. On my test I had to ' turn the car in the other direction ' and it took me 5 rather than the usual 3 point turn . Still passed first time .
