The Car
The tuition car is a Toyota Yaris 1.4 TDI. Fitted with dual controls for safety. This is a particularly easy car for the novice driver to get to grips with. Being a diesel engine with a large flywheel it is not easy to stall, therefore much easier to pull away and do all the manoeuvres compared to driving a petrol car with a small engine which is what a lot of the driving schools use for tuition.
The car has a seat which is adjustable for height, as is the steering wheel, which makes the car suitable for anyone from 4ft 6in to 6ft 2in tall.
Power steering makes for easy driving whilst manoeuvering, and air conditioning for a pleasant environment on those rare hot days.
